Hardcover. Condición: New. This book titled Introduction to Earthquake Site Response deals with the said subject in its totality. Intense ground shaking during large earthquakes can damage or even cause failure of engineered structures such as buildings, bridges, highways, and dams. Sustained strong shaking can also trigger ground failures, such as rock falls, landslides, earth flows and liquefaction. Strong motion seismology uses special sensors, called accelerometers, to record these large-amplitude ground motions and the response of engineered structures to these motions. Recordings of large-amplitude seismic waves near the earthquake source can be used to investigate the fault motions that produced the earthquake. Site response and ground motion studies use standard seismometers and oil-industry standard geophones to measure the local shaking from natural and man-made sources. These measurements help predict differential, site-dependent ground motion resulting from earthquakes. This information is used to upgrade building codes, to design earthquake resistant structures, and to predict the patterns of strong shaking from future large earthquakes. This book will be of immense help to all those contemplating to acquire an expert knowledge of geotechnical Earthquake Engineering & Seismology.…

Hardcover. Condición: New. This book contains up-to-date information on planning, analysis, and design of earthquake- resistant building structures. Its intention is to provide engineers, architects, developers, and students of structural engineering and architecture with authoritative, yet practical, design information. It represents an attempt to bridge the persisting gap between advances in the theories and concepts of earthquake resistant design and their implementation in seismic design practice. This book will be of immense help to all those contemplating to acquire an expert knowledge of geotechnical Earthquake Engineering & Seismology.…

Hardcover. Condición: New. This book titled Introduction to Seismic Hazard Analysis deals with the said subject in its totality. Seismic hazard analysis involves the quantitative estimation of ground shaking hazards at a particular area. Seismic hazards can be analysed deterministically as and when a particular earthquake scenario is assumed, or probabilistically, in which uncertainties in earthquake size, location, and time of occurrence are explicitly considered. A critical part of seismic hazard analysis is the determination of Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) and response acceleration (spectral acceleration) for an area/site. Spectral acceleration (Sa) is preferred for the design of civil engineering structures. It is an accepted trend in engineering practice to develop design response spectrum for different types of foundation materials such as rock, hard soil and weak soils. Analysis of lineaments and faults helps in understanding the regional seismotectonic activity of the area. Lineaments are linear features seen on the surface of earth which represents faults, features, shear zones, joints, litho contacts, dykes, etc; and are of great relevance to geoscientists.

Hardcover. Condición: New. This book titled Seismic Assessment and Remediation deals with the said subject in its totality. The seismogenic layer is the range of depths within the crust or lithosphere over which most earthquakes are initiated. Typically in continental crust this is in the uppermost 15 km. The base of this layer represents the downwards change in deformation mechanism from elastic and frictional processes associated with brittle faulting to a generally aseismic zone where ductile creep becomes the dominant process. The social and economic consequences of earthquake damage are also important. However, the assessment of the social and economic effects is more complex and there isn't a well defined process to assess these outcomes. Usually these have been assessed as a multiplier of the direct losses to indicate an order of magnitude of such losses.
