Evaluation of Shear Walls and Bracings in Irregular Buildings Under Seismic Load
Abstract: The structural integrity and stability of irregular buildings under lateral forces such as wind and seismic loads pose significant challenges in modern construction practices. Irregularities in a building & geometry and mass distribution can lead to uneven force distribution, making the structure more vulnerable to lateral displacement and potential failure. To enhance the resilience of such structures, shear walls and bracing systems are commonly employed to improve lateral load resistance. …

Assessment of the Reinforced Slope Stability Under Earthquake Loading
Abstract: Failure of the soil slopes by dynamic excitation is one of the most vital geotechnical earthquake hazards which may lead to serious destruction to the bridge abutments, dams, embankment, and structures resting on the slope. Moreover, due to deficient space available for the construction of slopes in urban areas, high and steep slope is constructed by geotextile reinforcement slopes. In this study, numerical modelling is made to study the behaviour …

Analysis of Vibrational Induced Structure Considering Rail and Seismic Load Using ETABS
Abstract: In the past, buildings next to railroad tracks were not taken into account when designing them, which resulted in catastrophic damage to the buildings as well as fatalities. For these structures to be designed safely, the vibrational loading must diminish. This study's case study is the Rani Kamlapati railway station in Bhopal, which was renovated by the Bansal Group and is the nation's first private railroad station. They suggested building …

Review of Subsea Pipeline for Minimizing Thermal and Pressure Expansion
Abstract: As the offshore oil and gas fields have been exploited in deeper water, subsea pipelines are required to operate at high temperatures and pressures. It causes subsea pipelines to be more subject to movements both in lateral and axial directions due to the loads produced by high temperatures and pressures. Some high temperature pipelines have experienced the cumulative axial displacement of an overall pipeline length over a number of start-up/shut-in …

Performance of Offshore Steel Jacket Platforms under Near-source Ground Motion Type Pulses
Abstract: Behaviour of jacket type offshore structures under ordinary ground excitations has already been addressed by a number of researchers. However, their performance under near-source ground excitations has not been particularly addressed in the literature. Records from recent earthquakes, such as the Kobe Japan (1995) and Chi-Chi Taiwan (1999), have revealed that the dynamic excitations in near-source are dominated by a large, narrow band and long period pulse caused by rupture …
