Direct Method for Floor Response Spectra Considering Soil-Structure Interaction
(University of Waterloo, 2020-02-19)Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI) analysis is required in structural dynamic analysis under seismic excitations in the current standards, and it significantly influences the Floor Response Spectra (FRS),which are used in ... -
Direct Method of Generating Floor Response Spectra
(University of Waterloo, 2016-05-12)Floor Response Spectra (FRS), also called In-structure Response Spectra (IRS) in some standards and literature, are extensively used as seismic input in safety assessment for Systems, Structures, and Components (SSCs) in ... -
Impulsive Control of Dynamical Networks
(University of Waterloo, 2017-08-25)Dynamical networks (DNs) consist of a large set of interconnected nodes with each node being a fundamental unit with detailed contents. A great number of natural and man-made networks such as social networks, food networks, ... -
Pavement Flooding Risk Assessment and Management in the Changing Climate
(University of Waterloo, 2020-01-15)Flooding, which can cause substantial infrastructure damages resulting in adverse social, environmental, and economical consequences, is a rising concern in the changing climate. Road networks consisting of interconnected ... -
Seismic Fragility Analysis for Structures, Systems, and Components in Nuclear Power Plants
(University of Waterloo, 2017-01-18)Seismic fragility analysis has been widely used to evaluate seismic capacities of structures, systems, and components (SSCs) in nuclear power plants. In the seismic fragility analysis, a single ground motion parameter ...
