Over the past decade, major advances have occurred in both understanding and practice
with regard to assessment and mitigation of hazard associated with seismically induced soil …

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) review leading to accelerated approval of
carfilzomib is described. A single-arm trial enrolled 266 patients with multiple myeloma refractory …

This classic handbook deals with the geotechnical problems of rock slope design. It has been
written for the non-specialist mining or civil engineer, with worked examples, design charts…

Ground motions close to a ruptured fault resulting from forward-directivity are significantly
different than other ground motions. These pulse-type motions can place severe demands on …

A simplified semiempirical predictive relationship for estimating permanent displacements
due to earthquake-induced deviatoric deformations is presented. It utilizes a nonlinear fully …

It is often useful in earthquake engineering practice to characterize the frequency content of
an earthquake ground motion with a single parameter. Three simplified frequency content …

Observations from recent earthquakes and the results of cyclic tests indicate that the Chinese
criteria are not reliable for determining the liquefaction susceptibility of fine-grained soils. …

The objective of performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE) is the analysis of
performance objectives with a specified annual probability of exceedance. Increasingly …

Seismically induced settlement of buildings with shallow foundations on liquefiable soils
has resulted in significant damage in recent earthquakes. Engineers still largely estimate …
