Seismological and Engineering Demand Misfits for Evaluating Simulated Ground Motion Records
Karim Zadeh Naghshineh, Shaghayegh (2019-11-01)
Simulated ground motions have recently gained more attention in seismology and earthquake engineering. Since different characteristics of waveforms are expected to influence alternative structural response parameters, evaluation of simulations, for key components of seismological and engineering points of view is necessary. When seismological aspect is of concern, consideration of a representative set of ground motion parameters is imperative. Besides, to test the applicability of simulations in earthquake ...
Seismoturbidites in the Gulf of Aqaba during the past 500 years
Bektaş, Zeynep; Avşar, Ulaş (2019-04-12)
The Gulf of Aqaba, 180 km-long and approximately 15 km-wide, is located at the southernmost part of the left-lateral strike slip Dead Sea Fault (DSF). It is characterized by three pull-apart basins accommodating trans-tensional motion. Although paleoseismic data about the past devastating earthquakes on-shore DSF are available, our knowledge remains limited in the Gulf of Aqaba region. To improve our knowledge on the location and geometry of active faults in the region, its overall tectonics and its seismic...
Stochastic geometry model of rock mass fracture network in tunnels
Azarafza, Mohammad; Akgün, Haluk; Asghari-Kaljahi, Ebrahim (Geological Society of London, 2018-08-01)
Geometric distributions of fractures or discontinuities control the behaviour, and limit the strength and the stability of rock masses where the best stabilization and improvement method for that rock mass could be achieved based on favourable discontinuity geometry. This study introduces an algorithm named 'Stochastic Geometry Model of Fractures Network in Tunnels (SGMFNT)', which was developed with the MA THEMATICA software. The SGMFNT method provides a fractures geometric distribution database to aid dis...
Stochastic strong ground motion simulations on North Anatolian fault zone and central Italy: validation, limitation and sensitivity analyses
Uğurhan, Beliz; Askan Gündoğan, Ayşegül; Department of Civil Engineering (2010)
Assessment of potential ground motions in seismically active regions is essential for purposes of seismic design and analysis. Peak ground motion intensity values and frequency content of seismic excitations are required for reliable seismic design, analysis and retrofitting of structures. In regions of sparse or no strong ground motion records, ground motion simulations provide physics-based synthetic records. These simulations provide not only the earthquake engineering parameters but also give insight in...
