  • Impact of Long-Period Ground Motions on Structural Design: A Case Study for Bucharest, Romania

    by Florin Pavel, Viorel Popa, Radu Vacareanu ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book discusses the impact of long-period ground motions on structural design using the situation in Bucharest, the capital city of Romania, as a case study. The first part explores the seismic hazard situation in Bucharest, and the causes of long-period ground motions related to both the source and the site. Subsequently, it examines the current seismic design, detailing building practices in ... Read more

  • The 1940 Vrancea Earthquake. Issues, Insights and Lessons Learnt

    Proceedings of the Symposium Commemorating 75 Years from November 10, 1940 Vrancea Earthquake

    Edited by Radu Vacareanu, Constantin Ionescu ...
    Series series Springer Nature Proceedings excluding Computer Science
    These proceedings include most of the available information on this major seismic event and its consequences. With an estimated moment magnitude of 7.7 and a heavy toll in terms of human and economic losses, it ranks as the largest intermediate-depth earthquake in Europe in the twentieth century. Nevertheless, because of the difficult conditions in the 1940s, the lessons learnt after the Vrancea ... Read more

  • Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering Design

    Edited by Michele Maugeri, Claudio Soccodato ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Pseudo-static analysis is still the most-used method to assess the stability of geotechnical systems that are exposed to earthquake forces. However, this method does not provide any information about the deformations and permanent displacements induced by seismic activity. Moreover, it is questionable to use this approach when geotechnical systems are affected by frequent and rare seismic events. ... Read more
