Ítem Efficient solution for the diffraction of elastic SH waves by a wedge: Performance of various exact, asymptotic and simplified solutions(Elsevier Ltd, 2017-04-01) Aristizabal, V.H.; Velez, F.J.; Jaramillo, J.D.; Mecánica AplicadaThe diffraction of horizontally polarized shear waves by a semi-infinite wedge in frequency and time domains is studied. In particular, this work focus on the performance of different solutions, including the classical contributions from Macdonald, Sommerfeld and Kouyoumjian & Pathak. In addition, two fully analytical, simplified solutions are proposed using arguments from the so-called geometrical theory of diffraction. The main advantage of the two proposed solutions is the fact that the resulting solutions can be scaled to problems with arbitrary and complex geometries. Moreover, it is found that one of the proposed new solutions is highly efficient in terms of accuracy and computational speed as compared to alternative formulations (approximately 1000 times faster than the Macdonald and Kouyoumjian & Pathak solutions), thus, this important characteristic renders this solution ideal for implementation in GPUs (Graphics Processor Units) for multiscale modeling applications. © 2017 Elsevier LtdÍtem Evaluation of the seismic risk of the unreinforced masonry building stock in Antioquia, Colombia(SPRINGER, 2017-03-01) Acevedo, A.B.; Jaramillo, J.D.; Yepes, C.; Silva, V.; Osorio, F.A.; Villar, M.; Mecánica AplicadaThis paper presents the development of an exposure model for the residential building stock in Antioquia (the second most populated Department of Colombia), the development of fragility functions for unreinforced masonry buildings, and estimation of building damage for two possible seismic events. Both the exposure and fragility models are publically available and can be used to calculate damage and losses due to single events, or probabilistic seismic hazard. The exposure model includes information regarding the total built-up area, number of buildings and inhabitants, building class, and replacement cost. The methodology used for the creation of the exposure model was based on available cadastral information, survey data, and expert judgment. Fragility functions were derived using nonlinear time history analyses on single-degree-of-freedom oscillators, for unreinforced masonry structures which represent more than 60% of the building stock in the region. Both seismic scenarios indicate that an event corresponding to a return period of 500 years located within the region of interest would cause slight or moderate damage to nearly 95 thousand structures, and about 32 thousand would have severe damage or collapse.

Moreover, the authors show from the ray theory point of view the meaning of such solutions. These solutions could be helpful in future conceptual works about generation and emerging phenomena in elastic waves such as scattering and diffraction, among others, specifically in the analysis of the boundary conditions. Here, new kinds of P-S body waves that oscillate elliptically and propagate outward from sources in a full-space are found where, as special cases, the grazing longitudinal (Py) and transversal (SVy) waves of the Goodier-Bishop type, the analytic expressions for the Rayleigh wave and surface P waves, for which the amplitude decays from sources, are obtained. Also, the standard expressions for the homogeneous plane wavefronts, surface P waves, and Rayleigh surface waves, are achieved. © 2006-2015 Asian Research Publishing Network (ARPN).Ítem Seismic response of three-dimensional rockfill dams using the Indirect Boundary Element Method(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2014-01-01) Sánchez-Sesma, F.J.; Arellano-Guzmán, M.; Pérez-Gavilán, J.J.; Suarez, M.; Marengo-Mogollón, H.; Chaillat, S.; Jaramillo, J.D.; Gómez, J.; Iturrarán-Viveros, U.; Rodríguez-Castellanos, A.; Sánchez-Sesma, F.J.; Arellano-Guzmán, M.; Pérez-Gavilán, J.J.; Suarez, M.; Marengo-Mogollón, H.; Chaillat, S.; Jaramillo, J.D.; Gómez, J.; Iturrarán-Viveros, U.; Rodríguez-Castellanos, A.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería Mecánica; Mecánica AplicadaThe Indirect Boundary Element Method (IBEM) is used to compute the seismic response of a three-dimensional rockfill dam model. The IBEM is based on a single layer integral representation of elastic fields in terms of the full-space Green function, or fundamental solution of the equations of dynamic elasticity, and the associated force densities along the boundaries. The method has been applied to simulate the ground motion in several configurations of surface geology. Moreover, the IBEM has been used as benchmark to test other procedures. We compute the seismic response of a three-dimensional rockfill dam model placed within a canyon that constitutes an irregularity on the surface of an elastic half-space. The rockfill is also assumed elastic with hysteretic damping to account for energy dissipation. Various types of incident waves are considered to analyze the physical characteristics of the response: symmetries, amplifications, impulse response and the like. Computations are performed in the frequency domain and lead to time response using Fourier analysis. In the present implementation a symmetrical model is used to test symmetries. The boundaries of each region are discretized into boundary elements whose size depends on the shortest wavelength, typically, six boundary segments per wavelength. Usually, the seismic response of rockfill dams is simulated using either finite elements (FEM) or finite differences (FDM). In most applications, commercial tools that combine features of these methods are used to assess the seismic response of the system for a given motion at the base of model. However, in order to consider realistic excitation of seismic waves with different incidence angles and azimuth we explore the IBEM. © 2010 IOP Publishing Ltd.
