A Fourier series non-stationary coherency model with respect to the site conditions for horizontal component was developed. The evolution of achieved using parameters related site, inter-station distance, and time. First, based on simulation a ground-motion field considering wave-passage effect site-response effect, approach used estimation wavelet transform is presented. Subsequently, formulat...

in this paper, dynamical behavior of the delay mechanism of a special projectile controller is studied, using 3d finite element simulation. the controller considered here is among of high-acceleration mechanical controllers. due to high linear and angular accelerations of the projectile and also explosion risk, experimental investigation is very limited and almost impossible. so, numerical simu...

growing environmental and social concerns, both on the part of decision makers and public opinion, have brought a new perspective to the perception of hazard assessments a valid alternative in the long-term, and an effective complement in short and medium terms, to traditional design procedure for a resistant and safe environment. results of the gradual development of research on the probabilis...

The 2014 Ms 6.5 (Mw6.1) Ludian earthquake occurred in the eastern Sichuan-Yunnan border region of western China. This earthquake caused much more severe engineering damage than the usual earthquakes with the same magnitude in China. The National Strong Motion Network obtained large set of ground motion recordings during the earthquake. To investigate the engineering interested characteristics o...

In human body movement simulation such as vertical jump by a forward dynamic model, optimal control theories must be used. In the recent years, new methods were created for solving optimization problems which they were adopted from animal behaviors and environment events such as Genetic algorithm, Particle swarm and Imperialism competitive. In this work, the skeletal model was constructed by Ne...

A recent development of the Earth Simulator super parallel computer has made it possible to realized realistic 3-D simulations of high-frequency seismic wave propagations on a regional scale. Paralleling this development, the deployment of dense networks of strong ground motion instruments in Japan (K-NET and KiK-net) has now made it possible to directly visualize regional seismic wave propagat...

Two-dimensional lattice particle models have been used to simulate dynamic thrust faulting and its effects on near-fault ground motions. The lattice particle modeling approach has been demonstrated as an efficient way to model the dynamic rupture phenomena observed from a foam rubber experiment on dipping faults. We constructed a 42 dipping fault model to simulate near-fault ground motions unde...
