Computer software for academic research (e.g. DRAIN2D) is often deficient in Graphical User Interface (GUI) and commercial software doesn’t open GUI’s framework to the user. The advantage of GUI is so evident and the requirements of GUI always exist. Thus, there exist sufficient reasons to research on the GUI’s framework. This article introduces that how to build an extensible and flexible GUI ...

4th International Conference on Earthquake Engineering

Substantial research has been conducted to advance structural control as a means of mitigating the dynamic response of civil structures. Recently, the structural engineering field has begun exploring low-cost wireless sensors for structural monitoring applications. Wireless sensors can be employed to reduce the labor and costs associated with installing extensive lengths of coaxial wires in tod...

4th International Conference on Earthquake Engineering

The inelastic response of beam-column connections significantly affects the seismic performances of steel frames. Accurate models of beam-column connections are important both in understanding the seismic behavior and in design. An effective approach towards developing accurate models for connections is self-learning simulation, which is presented in this paper. The latter simulation method has...

Real-time Seismology and Earthquake Damage Mitigation

■ Abstract Real-time seismology refers to a practice in which seismic data are collected and analyzed quickly after a significant seismic event, so that the results can be effectively used for postearthquake emergency response and early warning. As the technology of seismic instrumentation, telemetry, computers, and data storage facility advances, the real-time seismology for rapid postearthqua...
