Multiple earthquake effects on degrading reinforced concrete structures
Multiple earthquakes occur at many regions around the world where complex fault systems exist. These fault systems usually do not relieve all accumulated strains at once when the first rupture takes place. Therefore high stresses form at different locations causing sequential ruptures until the …

Quantifying coseismic land-level change along the Cascadia subduction zone in central Oregon
… past Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) megathrust earthquakes is crucial for assessing rupture dynamics and predicting future seismic hazards. Estimates of the magnitude of coseismic subsidence produced by these great (>M 8.5) earthquakes provide critical constraints for rupture and hazard models. …

A Neural Network-Based Methodology for Generating Spectrum -Compatible Earthquake Accelerograms
… based methodology for generating artificial earthquake spectrum compatible accelerograms is proposed using the learning capabilities of neural networks to develop the knowledge of the inverse mapping directly from the response spectra to earthquake accelerograms. A two-stage approach is used. …

Shake table testing of hybrid wood shear wall system
… resilient structural systems that can undergo multiple earthquake and continue to re-center. This thesis presents the results of a shake table test program that focused on testing of a one-story full-scale hybrid wood shear wall system comprised of a post-tensioned CLT wall panel with …

Performance of shape memory alloy rehabilitated bridge columns under sequential earthquakes
… the seismic performance of a SMA retrofitted multiple frame bridge when subjected to sequences of main shock-aftershock ground motions. Beyond exploring the responses of the columns at the component level, the impact of retrofitting a single or multiple columns with different levels of …

Seismic fragility of buildings damaged by past earthquakes
… while ignoring the possibility of having multiple earthquakes during the service life of the structure. However, considering the relatively high probability of multiple earthquakes (including main shock-aftershock sequence) and the reality that some buildings might not satisfy the previous …

A high-resolution Holocene fault activity history of the Aigion Shelf, Gulf of Corinth, Greece
… activity over 1 kyr timescales representing multiple earthquake cycles. Observation periods of >4 kyr are found to represent the longer-term displacement behaviour on the Aigion Shelf Fault.<br/>The displacement profile of the Aigion Shelf Fault indicates that it is extends onshore. There is …

Earthquakes and sea-level change in Hokkaido, north-east Japan
… timescales. Limited data from previous earthquake cycles indicate that RSL was stable, rising or falling during previous interseismic intervals. These observations suggest that a representative ‘Hokkaido earthquake deformation cycle’ may not exist. Future research should better …
