Item type:Publication, Directionality of FIV3 ground-motion intensities during the 6 February 2023 Kahramanmaraş, Türkiye earthquake doublet(2024-05); Eduardo MirandaAt present time, ground-motion prediction models neglect the directionality observed in horizontal components of earthquake ground motions, that is, the important changes in ground-motion intensity that occur with changes in azimuth. This study presents an investigation of the directionality of a recently proposed measure of ground-motion intensity during the 6 February 2023, Mw 7.8 Pazarcık and Mw 7.5 Elbistan earthquake doublet in the Kahramanmaraş region of Türkiye, which resulted in the collapse of more than 35,000 buildings and caused almost 60,000 fatalities. The studied intensity measure is referred to as FIV3, which has been shown to be better correlated with structural collapse than the spectral acceleration at the fundamental period of the structure. The improved intensity measure is period-dependent and is computed as the sum of the three largest incremental velocities with the same polarity obtained from the area under segments of a low-pass filtered ground acceleration time series. The following aspects are studied in this article: variation of FIV3 intensity with changes in the orientation; variation of FIV3 intensity with changes in the period of vibration; attenuation of FIV3 intensities with increasing distance; and spatial distribution of the orientation of maximum FIV3 intensity. This study is based on 231 pairs of records from the Mw 7.8 main event and 222 pairs of records from the Mw 7.5 event. Similarly to the directionality of spectral ordinates, it is found that the directionality of FIV3 intensity also increases with increasing period. Strong directionality occurred not only in the near field but up to distances as large as 400 km from the epicenter. The orientation of maximum FIV3 intensity is found to occur close to the transverse orientation, consistent with observations for the orientation of maximum spectral ordinates during strike-slip earthquakes.14Scopus© Citations 4 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Overview of collapsed buildings in Mexico City after the 19 September 2017 (M<sub>w</sub>7.1) earthquake(2020); Jorge Ruiz-García<jats:p>An intraslab normal-faulting earthquake struck the central region of Mexico on 19 September 2017, leading to the collapse of 44 buildings in Mexico City. After the earthquake, the authors collected information in situ and through social media about the collapsed buildings, which was statistically processed to identify the causes of their collapse. This article presents the main collapse statistics, which revealed that 64% of the collapsed buildings had between 1 and 5 stories, 61% had a seismic-force-resisting system based on reinforced concrete columns with flat slabs, 57% experienced a soft-story mechanism, 91% were built before 1985, 43% were located at the corner blocks, and 10% exhibited pounding with neighboring buildings. The spatial distribution of the collapsed buildings and the recorded ground motion features suggest that short- and medium-period buildings having well-known vulnerabilities were particularly prone to collapse under amplified high-frequency seismic waves typical of intraslab normal-faulting earthquakes, such as the 2017 Puebla–Morelos earthquake.</jats:p>Scopus© Citations 42 2 12 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
