Abstract:
This study aims to group earthquake damage from its magnitude scale and visualize it on a geographical map. The magnitude of the earthquake was grouped using the K-means model. It is one of the most popular and effective clustering models in grouping data, such as earthquake data. The dataset used in this study is earthquake data for the last ten years on Lombok Island. The optimal number of clusters was used which is 2 in this case, based on the highest Silhouette score of 0.930. The highest Silhouette score shows the optimal number of clusters.

Earthquakes are natural phenomena that occur when the Earth's tectonic plates move and release energy.

Against this background, there is a growing trend in research focused on predicting the load-carrying capacity of bridges using 3D FEM. In these analytical studies, many evaluations on vertical load were carried out, but few evaluations on lateral load, such as earthquakes. In this paper, the finite element model of the girder end structure with corrosion was created and pushover analysis was conducted. The results of the ana

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;In this paper we present the workings of a new platform designated for assessment and management of a large number of bridges. The platform combines advanced inspection and testing techniques, digital twinning, and Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). The overall goal of the framework developed by Kinemetrics is to construct an SHM platform that will efficiently monitor the safety and reliability of bridge infrastructure in big cities. However, on a more general level, our aim is to increase public safety as well as to reduce life cycle costs of bridge maintenance. For this reason, thi

Abstract:
During earthquakes, structures move laterally and since usually a proper gap distance between structures is not provided so the structures can collide with each other. Building codes which are commonly used, do not offer any provisions for designing the structures for additional forces due to pounding and so structures are susceptible to damage subjected to pounding during strong seismic events. Therefore, in the current study, effect of pounding on a structure is studied considering different parameters including number of stories, total weight, story stiffness and floor alignment with adjace

Nowadays, the use of supercomputing for solving almost any task ranging from industrial to the ecological ones has been increasing. It should be noted that this requires lots of energy, which negatively affects the environment and is costly. However, in a number of cases it is possible to achieve high performance calculations without the use of supercomputers but instead by relying on special processors, focused on a particular class of tasks.

Earthquakes pose a significant threat to the population, causing harm to individuals and also impacting modern infrastructure. Prediction of earthquakes as a subfield of seismology aims to address questions and problems related to forecasting of earthquakes.

Abstract: Earthquakes are natural disasters that have led to the displacement of large number of people in different parts of the world. These geophysical events, often destructive in scale, lead to short- or long-term displacement from vulnerable areas. The aim of this research is to analyse the impact of earthquakes on the intensity and dynamics of human mobility in the Balkan region. For this purpose, data on internal displacement under the influence of earthquakes in the Balkan countries in the period 2008-2023 were analysed and processed.

This report describes several advances in the cyclic failure assessment of silt soils with immediate and practical benefit to the geotechnical earthquake engineering profession. First, a database of cyclic loading test data is assembled, evaluated, and used to assess trends in the curvature of the CRR-N (cyclic resistance ratio - the number of equivalent cycles) relationship. This effort culminated in a plasticity index-dependent function which can be used to estimate the exponent b in the power law describing cyclic resistance, and may be used to estimate the cyclic resistance of silt soils a

The completion of this study allows for a comprehensive catalogue in NE BC from 2014 to 2020 by building upon our previous 2014-2016 and 2017-2018 catalogues. Th

Evaluating the seismic performance of concrete dams requires nonlinear dynamic analysis of two- or three-dimensional dam–water–foundation rock systems that include all the factors known to be significant in the earthquake response of dams.
