Assessment of modeling sensitivity for nonlinear seismic analysis of highway bridges in Illinois
… for various hazard levels by using a suite of synthetic ground motions based on representative seismic records of the New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ), a geographical region that encompasses several locations with high seismicity, including southern Illinois. Phase II continued the assessment …

Quasi-isolated highway bridges: influence of bearing anchorage strength on seismic performance
… height, and anchorage strength. A set of ten synthetic ground motions from the New Madrid Seismic Zone were scaled to match the AASHTO seismic design spectra for Cairo, Illinois, and applied in the longitudinal and transverse directions during a total of 480 nonlinear dynamic analyses …

New Model And Simulation Algorithm Of Nonstationary Non-gaussian Ground Motions Based On S-transform
The seismic ground motions are nonstationary stochastic processes and vary from site to site. The time histories of synthetic ground motions are used for nonlinear inelastic structural dynamic analysis since the historical records are limit or unavailable for a particular scenario seismic event. …

Stochastic model for the simulation of synthetic main shock-aftershock ground motion sequences
… model generates pairs of orthogonal horizontal ground motions and has separable non-stationarity in time and spectral domains. Prediction equations are developed for the controlling parameters, where the predictors are the site conditions and the aftershock characteristics from the BASS model. …

Numerical and experimental methods for seismic risk assessment of civil and industrial structures
… encompasses the coupled piping network. Besides, ground motions for dynamic tests are synthetized based on a stochastic ground motion model whose input parameters are derived from the results provided by a seismic hazard analysis. Then, based on output data from the experimental tests, both a …
