SEISMIC VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT AT LARGE SCALE CASE STUDY: THE CANTON OF BASEL-STADT

Large-scale seismic risk assessment requires knowledge of the vulnerability of buildings. Under the action of an earthquake, buildings with different properties also behave differently. Since it is not possible to analyze each building individually, it is ...

Bifurcations at the Stability Transition of Earthquake Faulting

Carolina Giorgetti

Tectonic faults typically break in a single rupture mode within the range of styles from slow slip to dynamic earthquake failure. However, in increasingly well-documented instances, the same fault segment fails in both slow and fast modes within a short pe ...

Development of collapse-consistent loading protocols for experimental testing of steel columns

Dimitrios Lignos

In order to effectively utilize results from quasi-static cyclic testing on structural components for the earthquake-induced collapse risk quantification of structures, the need exists to establish collapse-consistent loading protocols representing the asy ...

Zagreb earthquake of 22 March 2020-preliminary report on seismologic aspects and damage to buildings

Nenad Bijelic

Significant characteristics and main consequences of the 5.5 magnitude earthquake that struck Zagreb and its surroundings in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic are presented in the paper. Although, from the seismologic aspect, the earthquake was of moderat ...

Parametric analysis of the elastohydrodynamic lubrication efficiency on induced seismicity

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Chiara Cornelio

During reservoir stimulations, the injection of fluids with variable viscosities can trigger seismicity. Several fault lubrication mechanisms have been invoked to explain the dynamic stress drop occurring during those seismic events. Here, we perform a par ...

Proposed methodology for building-specific earthquake loss assessment including column residual axial shortening

Dimitrios Lignos, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Elkady

This paper proposes methodological developments for quantifying the impact of residual axial shortening of first-story steel columns on earthquake loss estimations in steel moment-resisting frame (MRF) buildings. A new formulation is proposed that accounts ...

Origin of the Temporal Evolution of Elastic Properties During Laboratory Seismic Cycle

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, François Xavier Thibault Passelègue, Mateo Alejandro Acosta, Federica Paglialunga

Recent seismological observations highlighted that earthquakes are associated to drops in elastic properties around the fault zone (Brenguier et al., 2008). This drop is often attributed to co-seismic damage produced at the rupture tip, and can mostly be o ...

Fault Stability Across the Seismogenic Zone

François Xavier Thibault Passelègue

Across the seismogenic zone, the transition from brittle to plastic deformation corresponds to a semibrittle regime where brittle fracturing and plastic flow coexist at high strength conditions. Thorough experimental investigations on brittle-plastic trans ...

Seismic performance of slender RC U-shaped walls with a single-layer of reinforcement

Katrin Beyer, João Saraiva Esteves Pacheco de Almeida, Ryan Hoult

Reinforced concrete walls are commonly used to resist the lateral loading induced by wind and earthquake actions. While most walls include two vertical reinforcement layers, some regions of the world construct slender, non-rectangular concrete walls with a ...

Stress management in the context of induced seismicity in subsurface reservoirs

Barnaby Padraig Fryer

The stress state of the subsurface has been shown to have an influence on a number of key processes. For example, the criticality of the stress state indicates how large stress changes need to be before a fault begins to slip, the mean effective stress con ...
