Liquefaction Hazard assessment using Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio of Microtremor

In this paper, the spectral ratio of mmicrotremor, HSVR, is presented for estimating the liquefaction potential of layered soil in the coastal area of the Persian Gulf, which consists of a hard sandstone layer situated between two saturated sandy layers. The surface layer is thin, with a thickness between 2 and 5 meters. The purpose of this paper is to identify the relation between the liquefac...

buckling of viscoelastic composite plates using the finite strip method

در سال های اخیر، تقاضای استفاده از تئوری خطی ویسکوالاستیسیته بیشتر شده است. با افزایش استفاده از کامپوزیت های پیشرفته در صنایع هوایی و همچنین استفاده روزافزون از مواد پلیمری، اهمیت روش های دقیق طراحی و تحلیل چنین ساختارهایی بیشتر شده است. این مواد جدید از خودشان رفتارهای مکانیکی ارائه می دهند که با تئوری های الاستیسیته و ویسکوزیته، نمی توان آن ها را توصیف کرد. این مواد، خواص ویسکوالاستیک دارند....

Experimental Study on Hydraulic Parameters of Vertical Drops Equipped to Horizontal Screen with Different Relative Distances

The present study aimed to investigate and compare the laboratory results of energy dissipation and length of vertical Drops equipped with horizontal Screens with the results of standard stilling basins of type one, two, three and four simple vertical Drops. For this purpose, 64 different experiments were performed on vertical Drops equipped with a horizontal Screen at relative distances of 0, ...

Estimation of glacier thicknesses and basal properties using the horizontal-to-vertical component spectral ratio (HVSR) technique from passive seismic data

Microtremor measurements and the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) technique, generally used for site effect studies as well as to determine the thickness of soft sedimentary layers, can effectively be applied to map the thickness of glaciers. In this work the radio-echo sounding, geoelectric and active seismic methods, widely employed to image the earth interior, are applied to veri...
