Earthquakes have caused colossal casualties and severe damages to engineering structures and especially leading to substantial economic loss to the underground structures and/or infrastructures. Pipelines are one of most ...

The traditional methods utilized in today's seismic design of structures involve structure's foundation as a fixed base by assuming soil does not deforms. Earthquake input motion is also considered as a horizontal movement ...

The objective of this work indicates and discusses two mathematical models and numerical techniques for solving problems associated with wave propagation in the track and subsoil due to the passage of a train. The Thin ...

This research primarily aims to investigate experimentally the mechanical behavior and the crack pattern of the perforated brick block masonry specimens under shear stresses before and after reinforcing procedure with ...

In this paper, the goal is to primarily deal with the modeling of the railway traffic induced vibrations by using discrete computer models for analyzing related wave propagation problems with soil-structure interaction ...

The installation of the trench-type barriers can be commonly used in civil engineering applications for isolation of the foundations and structures from the soft ground transmitted vibrations induced by high-speed surface ...
