Abstract: The region around Taiwan is known for high seismicity. Under the circumstances, seismic hazard assessments and proper earthquake-resistant designs are essential to the region. From a well-studied earthquake catalog, this ...

Abstract: Proper material constitutive models for concrete-filled tube (CFT) columns are proposed and verified by the nonlinear finite element program

Abstract: Earthquake prediction is by all means controversial and challenging, given the fact that some recent catastrophic earthquakes went unpredicted. Not surprisingly, statistical approaches have been utilized to model earthquake ...
