development of new methods in seismic analysis and increasing application of performance based seismic design necessitate the study of the seismic performance of structures designed based on iranian regulations. in this study the seismic performance of steel moment-resisting frames designed based on the tenth code of the iranian national building regulations is investigated. frames are differen...

in this paper, seismic behavior of the existing buildings equipped by friction dampers is studied. seismic performance of6-story, 9-story and 12-story steel buildings with damper and without damper were studied. the finite element modeling technique (sap2000 software) is used for analysis. time history analyzing was done to achieve this purpose. for nonlinear dynamic analysis, the responses of ...

Under operator, matrix and inverse theory, seismic-wave imaging can be considered a unified process—mapping from data space to model space. The main topics in seismic-wave imaging include (1) seismic-data interpolation, regularization and redatuming, which mainly decrease the imaging noise; (2) seismic-wave illumination analysis, which predicts whether a target reflector can be imaged and evalu...

This paper presents a detailed study of the damages and collapses suffered by various masonry churches in aftermath seismic sequence Central Italy 2016. The will first be analyzed then compared with numerical data obtained through 3D simulations eigenfrequency nonlinear static analyses (i.e., pushover). main purposes this are: (i) to create an adequately consistent sensitivity on several defini...

Determination of the internal stability of reinforced soil walls under earthquake conditions is an important part of seismic design. The horizontal method of slices is used for determining internal stability or for tieback analysis of the reinforced soil wall. A pseudo-dynamic method is adopted in the present analysis, which considers the effect of phase difference in both the shear and primary...

Alignment of seismic traces is a recurring need in seismic processing and interpretation. For global alignment via static shift there are robust tools available, including cross correlation. However, another kind of alignment problem arises in applications as diverse as associating synthetic seismograms to field data, harmonizing P-wave and mode converted data, final multilevel flattening of co...

This paper presents a new interpretation of the geometry of Triassic alignment of J. Sidi Mahdi –J. Zitoun in Medjerda Valley Plain (Northern Tunisia) based on detailed analysis of gravity and seismic reflection data. The main results of gravity analysis do not show a distinguish gravity anomaly over Triassic evaporites bodies. The positive gravity anomaly seems to be related to the entire stru...

Recorded ground motions in near fault region have completely distinct nature from others that recorded in far field of the fault. Near source outcomes cause much of the seismic energy to appear in a single large and long period pulse at the beginning of the velocity record. Assaluyeh complex is located near the reverse Assaluyeh fault that is a segment of Mountain Front Fault. This complex cont...

In this paper we show the implementation of bilinear time-frequency representations in the interpretation of seismic data. In seismic stratigraphy the reeection patterns in seismic data are interpreted in terms of subsurface stratiication and lithological properties. The time-frequency representation clearly elicits seismic reeection patterns and can thus provide useful information on subsurfac...

Blast-induced seismic wave is very important to theory study of structure damage and stability analysis of corresponding geotechnical engineering; however it is not well solved. Based on measured data of Lafarge quarry, shortcoming of traditional analysis method is pointed out. Wavelet analysis method is presented to describe spectral characteristics and energy distribution of blast-induced sei...
