https://lnkd.in/daQ-X3e6 Sono molto contento della recensione del libro Earthquakes and Sustainable Infrastructure- Neodeterministic Approach Guarantees Prevention Rather Than Cure, fatta dai professori Wen e Wang, rispettivamente dell'Institute of Geophysics , China Earthquake Administration, Pechino, e della School of Infrastructure Engineering della Dailan University of Technology, Dailan. Oltre ad aver correttamente colto, a differenza di certi divulgatori poco informati, la sostanziale differenza tra approcci Deterministici e Neo Deterministici, e ad aver riconosciuto il valore delle pioneristiche ricerche del nostro Prof. Giuliano Panza, nemo propheta in patra, gli studiosi cinesi hanno colto la importanza della definizione formale di MCE che è il frutto della proficua collaborazione tra ingegneria strutturale e geofisica. Il lavoro Rugarli e Panza e Vaccari (https://lnkd.in/eVd2aP6K ), citato nella recensione, aveva mostrato che l'aggiunta di un quid di magnitudo alla massima stimata (mediante catalogo e/o mediante i nodi sismogenetici e la zonazione morfostrutturale), equivale a fattorizzare il momento scambiato alla faglia. Ciò riconduce MCE al formato degli Eurocodici Strutturali, trattando il momento sismico al pari di ogni altra azione. La definizione formale di "magnitudo di progetto", Mdesign, è quindi Mdesign = Mmax + gammaEM x sigmaM, dove: - Mmax è la massima magnitudo stimata - sigmaM, è il valore centrale della deviazione standard della misura di magnitudo a livello globale (1/4) [le misure di magnitudo hanno errori]. - gammaEM (Earthquake Magnitude) è un fattore di sicurezza che deve servire a inviluppare, come minimo, il catalogo, e che deve dare magnitudo di progetto: (i) non così alte da risultare eccessive; (ii) non così basse da essere superate dai prossimi sismi nell'area di interesse (cfr. Popper e la falsificazione). Esso, come si è dimostrato con la formula di Hanks-Kanamori, che lega la magnitudo momento al momento sismico, è eguale a (2/3)(1/sigmaM) Log(gammaF), essendo gammaF il fattore di sicurezza da applicare al momento sismico, come una normale azione meccanica (quale esso è). Usando Mdesign = Mmax + 0.7, si è inviluppato il catalogo italiano, e quello di altre aree del globo, e, in questa stima, sono ricompresi tutti i peggiori sismi distruttivi avvenuti negli ultimi anni nel mondo. La ricerca procede. Gli studiosi cinesi riconoscono la importanza di questi studi, il che mi pare sia un bel risultato. Colgo l'occasione per manifestare la mia gratitudine e la mia stima a Giuliano Panza, con il quale è davvero possibile lavorare in modo proficuo, essendo una persona aperta alle nuove idee, e disponibile al confronto anche con persone che, come me, non hanno voluto avere cariche accademiche. Infine, sono felice che il mio nome sia stato unito al suo, sintetizzando così il lavoro svolto per anni assieme. E' un grande onore.

In December 2022, a 6.4 magnitude earthquake near Ferndale, California, was found to have originated in the Gorda slab, triggering slip motion on the Cascadia subduction zone (CSZ) megathrust fault in the following month, according to a study. Researchers suggest that the tectonic plate fragment causing the earthquake also led to a seismic slip on the CSZ, emphasizing the importance of considering subduction zones as coupled systems of interacting faults. https://lnkd.in/grR6UPdm #earthquakes #retrofitting #disasterpreparedness #propertyinvestment #propertymanagement

Base isolation is a seismic retrofitting technique used in building construction to minimize earthquake damage. It involves placing a building on flexible bearings or isolators, typically made of rubber or sliding materials, situated between the structure and its foundation. These isolators decouple the building from ground motion during an earthquake, allowing the base to move independently of the superstructure. In the event of seismic activity, the base isolators absorb and dissipate seismic energy, reducing the transmission of forces to the building. This innovative system enhances a structure's ability to withstand earthquakes, protecting occupants and minimizing structural damage. Base isolation has proven effective in preserving the integrity of buildings during seismic events, offering a reliable strategy to enhance overall earthquake resilience in urban areas prone to seismic activity.

🌟 Exciting Announcement! 🌟 Delighted to share that our latest article delves into the captivating realm of Supershear Earthquakes and their profound implications in earthquake engineering! 🏗️🌍 Supershear earthquakes, long overlooked in seismic studies, have taken the spotlight after the devastating 2023 Turkey and 2024 Japan earthquakes, shedding light on their immense impact. Our groundbreaking research uncovers the intricate dynamics of these seismic events, exploring their unprecedented speed and energy release along fault lines. In the realm of earthquake engineering, understanding Supershear earthquakes is pivotal. These events pose unique challenges, inducing higher ground motions and intensified structural damage. By dissecting their behavior and effects on various classes of Steel Special Moment Resisting Frame Structures (SMRFs), we're paving the way for innovative seismic-resistant designs and retrofitting strategies. Join us as we delve deeper into the earthquake engineering, empowering ourselves with knowledge to bolster structural resilience and mitigate future risks. Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/gbNnDm_b Together, let's build a safer, more resilient future! 💪🏼🏢🚧 #EarthquakeEngineering #StructuralResilience #SupershearQuakes #Innovation #BuildingSafety #LinkedInCommunity

L'ingegneria, quella vera, non solo ci può portare nello spazio ma può farci vivere, meglio e sicuri, sulla terra. La logica del mero costo ci ha condotto a non godere che di poche scoperte tecnologiche, specie in Italia. Rimettiamo al centro la progettazione dandole il valore che merita. #Engineering #earthquake #evolution #science
A 7.5 earthquake hit Taiwan yesterday and footage shows the Taipei 101 skyscraper shaking. The 1,670ft building famously has a 703 ton steel ball hanging between the 88th and 92nd floors, which acts as a “dampener system” to reduce building sway by 30-40% during earthquakes and typhoons. This video explains how the system acts like a pendulum to prevent structural damage. The engineering marvel is a passive dampening system, which means it doesn’t require an outside power source but is “powered by natural movement of the building.”

The most important aspect in designing earthquake structures
🏢 Earthquake Engineer — Training and Consulting: Seismic design and structural analysis of structures and components according to international seismic codes |⏳15+ years earthquake engineering 🎓200+ trained companies
💡𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗺❓ The Response Spectrum is the central basis for determining earthquake loads. It’s most obvious when using the Response Spectrum Method! But it’s also applied in all other calculation methods — whether elastic or inelastic, static or dynamic — the Response Spectrum defines the earthquake load to be considered! Why is that? Let's discuss in my next post... 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗺❔ The Response Spectrum defines the spectral response of Single-Degree-of-Freedom Systems (SDOF) to an earthquake. 𝘚𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘭 means: Absolute maximum! Wether positive ➕ or negative ➖. Generally, we consider the spectral 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯: This is the maximum absolute acceleration of an SDOF system with a specific oscillation period, T, resulting from an earthquake. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗺 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱❔ Here's a step-by-step guide, referring to the numbered illustration below: 1️⃣ The earthquake time history 🅰️ is applied to an SDOF system, and the spectral response Sa is recorded. The value is plotted in a "spectral acceleration Sa vs. period T" diagram at the corresponding period T of the SDOF system. 2️⃣ + 3️⃣ The process is repeated for other SDOF systems with different oscillation periods T. 4️⃣ With enough SDOF systems, a continuous line is formed: It is the Response Spectrum for the considered earthquake 🅰️. 5️⃣ The process is repeated with another earthquake 🅱️. 6️⃣ Because the variation between individual earthquakes is extremely high, many additional earthquakes 🔤, besides 🆎, are analyzed. The selected earthquakes are representative of the seismic hazard at the site in question. 7️⃣ A statistical average is taken from the individual Response Spectra of the earthquakes 🔤. The average represents the Response Spectrum for the site in question. Seismic codes such as ASCE 7 or Eurocode 8 contain a smoothed response spectrum, the Design Response Spectrum. __________ If you're interested in seismic design, join more than 5500 peers and follow earthquake-engineer.com. #StructuralEngineering #EarthquakeEngineering #Seismic #StructuralDesign #SeismicDesign
