Investigating the Reliability of Ground Motion Intensity Measures by Ali Jafari, Elham Rajabi, Gholamreza Ghodrati Amiri

“…The uncertainty and unreliability in the probabilistic seismic demand models (PSDMs) can be addressed in the framework of performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE). Some characteristics have been introduced and extensively investigated in the earthquake engineering literature for appropriateness (i.e., optimality) of various intensity measures, such as efficiency, effectiveness, sufficiency, practicality, and hazard computability. …”

Characterization of HVSR and VRSR in the Loess Plateau of China Based on Strong-Motion Data by Qi Li, Jingshan Bo, Da Peng

“…The results show that these spectral ratio curves effectively capture the dynamic behaviors of loess sites, minimizing the influences of earthquake magnitude and propagation path. While the spectral ratio peaks are less affected by magnitude, epicentral distance, and focal depth, they are significantly influenced by site conditions. …”

Experimental Studies on the Changes in Resistivity and Its Anisotropy Using Electrical Resistivity Tomography by Tao Zhu, Jian-Guo Zhou, Jin-Qi Hao

“…Our results show that with increasing pressure, resistivity and the decreased (D region) and increased (I region) resistivity regions have complex behaviors, but when pressure is higher than a certain value, the average resistivity decrease and the area of D region expand gradually in all time with the increase of pressure, which may be significant to the monitoring and prediction of earthquake, volcanic activities, and large-scale geologic motions. …”
