Upper and lower bound force capacity estimates of lead extrusion damper design force using classical extrusion models
(2021-04-14)To reduce seismic vulnerability and the economic impact of seismic structural damage, it is important to protect structures using supplemental energy dissipation devices. High force to volume (HF2V) devices are supplemental ... -

Using 3D geological models to create maps of estimated Vs30 and site period
(2023-04-19)The 30-m time-averaged shear-wave velocity (Vs30) and the fundamental site period (T0) are useful parameters for understanding site conditions, informing geotechnical studies as well as infrastructure planning. Unfortunately, ... -
Using a self-centring friction damper as anchorage system for industrial tanks and vessels
(2021-04-14)The conventional tank’s connections make the tanks to be either fully restrained or free for rocking motion, which generally creates a high level of force due to lack of ductility or large displacement demand due to uplift ... -
Using holistic design to improve the seismic performance of non-structural elements and building resilience
(2023-04-19)Non-structural elements typically contribute around 80% of the total cost of a building. Damage to these components as well as works to repair and replace earthquake damaged non-structural elements can mean buildings are ...
