Soil And Building Interaction Under Earthquake Loads Open
Soil-building interaction is an important factor to reduce the damage of structures under various dynamic effects. This interaction refers to the effect of dynamic properties of the ground such as seismic wave propagation, dispersion, refl…

The Role of Stress Barriers on the Shape of Future Earthquakes in the Mentawai Section of the Sunda Megathrust Open
The underlying causes of apparent barriers to rupture propagation on earthquake faults that appear strongly to constrain rupture shape and slip distributions, are the ongoing subject of research. Preseismic stress shadows on the rupturing …

Buckling Behavior of Sandwich Cylindrical Shells Covered by Functionally Graded Coatings with Clamped Boundary Conditions under Hydrostatic Pressure Open
The buckling behavior of sandwich shells with functionally graded (FG) coatings operating under different external pressures was generally investigated under simply supported boundary conditions. Since it is very difficult to determine the…

SCANM: A Novel Hybrid Metaheuristic Algorithm and Its Comparative Performance Assessment Open
This paper proposes a novel sine-cosine and Nelder-Mead (SCANM) algorithm which hybridizes the sine-cosine algorithm (SCA) and Nelder-Mead (NM) local search method. The original version of SCA is prone to early convergence at the local min…

Accuracy of Analytical Models to Predict Primary and Secondary System Response in Seismically Isolated Buildings Open
Seismic isolation is generally considered an effective earthquake protection strategy. As application of seismic isolation increases, decisions on the use of one particular isolator versus another isolator increasingly depend on computed r…
