The shear behavior of large-scale weak intercalation shear zones (WISZs) often governs the stability of foundations, rock slopes, and underground structures. However, due to their wide distribution, undulating morphology, ...

A novel scalar ground motion intensity measure (IM), termed the energy-frequency parameter, is proposed based on the Hilbert-Huang transform. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed IM, the correlation analysis between ...

Near-fault pulse-like ground motion is a significant class of seismic records since it tends to cause more severe damage to structures than ordinary ground motions. However, previous researches mainly focus on single-pulse ...
