Because of the limited number of strong-motion records that have measured ground response at large strains, any statistical analyses of seismic site-response models subject to strong ground motions are severely limited by a small number of observations...

PREdiction of NOn-LINear soil behavior (PRENOLIN) is an international benchmark aiming to test multiple numerical simulation codes that are capable of predicting nonlinear seismic site response with various constitutive models. One of the objectives...

A new research suggests that a tiny chip used in smartphones to adjust the orientation of the screen could serve to create a real-time urban seismic network, easily increasing the amount of strong motion data collected during a large earthquake. Micro...

An investigation by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission found that some seismic equipment briefly stopped working at Virginia's North Anna nuclear plant during an earthquake in 2011. No damage occurred, reactor safety systems performed as designed, and...

Bill Rihn (1930-2015) By Tom Osborne Civic valor defined Bill Rihn. Steadfastly, for 11 years (2003-2014) he served with distinction as president of the South Laguna Civic Association. Almost single-handedly he achieved the removal of South Laguna...
