State-of-the-Art for Assessing Earthquake Hazards in the United States: Report 11, Imagery in Earthquake Analysis (open access)

State-of-the-Art for Assessing Earthquake Hazards in the United States: Report 11, Imagery in Earthquake Analysis

Partial abstract: "Recent advances in the fields of remote sensing, engineering geology, seismology, and earthquake engineering have developed a need for a systematic comprehensive review of the basic principles and methods of applying remote sensing for evaluation of earthquake hazards and seismic risk. This paper responds to this need by reviewing basic concepts, summarizing essential, state-of-the-art knowledge of theory and instrumental methods, establishing procedures evaluations, and discussing representative case histories that illustrate earthquake hazard evaluations that are based on remote sensing analysis."

Effect of Backfill Property and Airblast Variations on the External Loads Delivered to Buried Box Structures

Partial abstract: "The results of analytical studies are presented in which (i) the SAP IV elastic finite-element (FE) code was used to perform modal analyses for a rectangular structure in vacuo and embedded in different backfill materials, and (2) a series of dynamic and static two-dimensional (2D), plane-strain, FE, structure-medium interaction (SMI) code calculations were performed using the HONDO code."
