Nuclear energy group nominated lecture special requirements for the design of nuclear power stations to withstand earthquakesThe aseismic design specification to which the Tokai plant was designed is summarized and explanations of certain of its requirements are given....
Derivation of eurocode 8 spectrum-compatible time-histories from recorded seismic accelerograms via harmonic waveletsA computationally efficient harmonic wavelet-based iterative procedure is proposed to modify suites of recorded accelerograms to be used in the aseismic design of critical structures regulated by the European code provisions (EC8)....
Aseismic design of tall reinforced concrete chimneys...cyclic behavior of chimney structures to severe earthquake ground shaking has resulted in design standards generally ignoring the effects of ductility and adopting conservative aseismic design provisions....
Study on the performance-based aseismic design for rc frame with mild steel shear damper... This paper presents a performance-based aseismic design method for RC frame with mild steel shear dampers, the numerical model of frame was established by SAP2000, then seismic performance of the frame was studied by...
