Selection and scaling of ground motion records have been recognised as one of the major
sources of bias and uncertainty in the seismic assessment of civil engineering structures …

The great rocking of building structures and the occurrence of liquefaction in water-saturated
soil on river banks are generally caused by earthquake shaking. The waves generated by …

In the present study, the incremental modal pushover analysis (IMPA), a pushover-based
approach already proposed and applied to buildings by the same authors, was revised and …

Existing reinforced concrete frame buildings designed for vertical loads could only suffer
severe damage during earthquakes. In recent years, many research activities were …

In order to estimate the seismic performance of structures, performing incremental dynamic
analysis, and obtaining fragility curves are essential. Since producing these curves is time …

Shake table tests were conducted on scaled tunnel model to investigate the mechanism and
effect of seismic loadings on horseshoe scaled tunnel model in ground fissure site. Key …

Abstract The Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) based seismic fragility analysis (SFA) approach
allows defining more realistic relationship between failure probability and seismic intensity …

The selection and scaling of ground motion records is considered a primary and essential
task in performing structural analysis and design. Conventional methods involve using …

Historical structures are vulnerable to effect of earthquake, wind, flood, fire, etc. Considering
the active seismic resources owned Turkey, earthquakes especially important threats for …

In order to accurately predict structural response subject to ground motion excitation in the
hazard level of interest, it is necessary to determine appropriate target spectrum. Conditional …
