Some of the damage to the infrastructure observed in past earthquakes occurred in Alaska could be related to the existence of permafrost. However, only limited research has been carried out so far to investigate the effects of permafrost on the seismic site response. Permafrost with relatively high

A procedure is presented which allows site response analyses to be performed with any general multidimensional finite element analysis package. Numerical results which corroborate the theory are presented. Aiso, as an illustration of the procedure, results of an effective stress analysis for the sei
Local ground characteristics play a fundamental role in seismic design and analysis of structural response. In spite of this, it is usually assumed that these are implicitly deterministic with only few possible values. This work presents a stochastic approach to define response spectra of a single-d
Recently, Coulson & Smith (1968), calculated a critical number of antigen determinants to stimulate a sensitized lymphocyte to transform. The purpose of this note is to point out that the mathematical procedure used in their analysis is not correct. Consequently, the critical number determined by th
