Local Site Effect During an Earthquake: 2015 Gorkha Earthquake
When an earthquake occurs, the intensity of ground shaking can vary significantly from one location to another. This variation is primarily due to the geological properties of the site where the earthquake is taking place. Understanding these local site effects is essential for predicting the potential impact of an earthquake on a specific location and […]
Natural Frequency and its significance for Earthquake Resistant Design
Natural frequency is a fundamental concept in physics and engineering that describes the frequency at which a system oscillates when disturbed from its equilibrium position. Although it’s an essential concept, many of us fail when we try to communicate this terminology. In this blog, I will explain natural frequency in simple terms and provide demonstrations […]
