Seismic loss and resilience assessment of single-column rocking bridges
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the seismic performance of single-column bridges, which are either conventionally designed, with the column monolithically connected with the ground (i.e., fixed-base), or designed with column-footing system able to uplift and exhibit planar rocking motion during an earthquake.

Seismic damage assessment of unanchored nonstructural components taking into account the building response
TL;DR: In this article, an extended seismic damage assessment of unanchored nonstructural components by means of rigid block analysis is presented, where both real ground and floor motions are considered as loading histories, together with accelerogram inputs developed according to the latest protocols for shake table testing of (acceleration-sensitive) nonStructural components (AC156 and FEMA 461).
Journal ArticleDOI
Rocking Response of Unanchored Building Contents Considering Horizontal and Vertical Excitation
TL;DR: The seismic performance of unanchored slender contents at various floor levels within a building has received little attention in the literature as discussed by the authors, despite earthquake reconnaissance reports routing the seismic performance.

On the Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test for Normality with Mean and Variance Unknown
TL;DR: In this paper, the power of the Kolmogorov-smirnov test is investigated and a table for testing whether a set of observations is from a normal population when the mean and variance are not specified but must be estimated from the sample.

Scaling: Self-similarity and intermediate asymptotics
TL;DR: The application of dimensional analysis to the construction of intermediate asymptotic solutions to problems of mathematical physics can be found in this article, where the authors describe the application of similarity analysis to scaling in deformation and fracture in solids.
Minimum Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures
TL;DR: The ASCE/SEI 7-05 standard as discussed by the authors provides a complete update and reorganization of the wind load provisions, expanding them from one chapter into six, and includes new ultimate event wind maps with corresponding reductions in load factors.
