the sirri jacket offshore platform was designed and installed in persian gulf of iran in 1975 and has been in service since that time. the importance of offshore structure's stability and the failure of this kind of structure during an earthquake in different active zones revealed that earthquake loading has to be considered. in this paper, magnetorheological (mr) fluid dampers have been propos...

The earthquake-induced displacement of sloping soil mass is an important indicator co-seismic landslide initiation. In this paper, improved Newmark model that considers the accumulation dynamic pore water pressure (DPWP) in caused by both vertical and horizontal ground motions proposed. can quantitatively describe changes seismic yield acceleration near-saturated infinite slopes. Three differen...

CA2 (Continuum Analysis, 2- dimensional) is a computer program developed by the author. CA2 can solve a variety of complex geotechnical problems using explicit finite difference method. In this paper, an introduction will be given to the theoretical and numerical basis of the program and the capability of the code will be shown by solving a few interesting nonlinear and transient problems. Fina...

Abstract Earthquake-induced slope instability is one of the most important hazards related to ground shaking, causing damages environment and, often, casualties. Therefore, it assess seismic performance slopes, especially in near fault regions, evaluating permanent displacements induced by loading. This paper applies a probabilistic approach evaluate slopes using an updated database motions rec...

This paper introduces the application of seismic wave method in earthquake prediction and early estimation. The advantages of the seismic wave method over the traditional earthquake prediction method are demonstrated. An example is presented in this study to show the accuracy and efficiency of using the seismic wave method in predicting a medium-sized earthquake swarm occurred in Wencheng, Zhej...
