Analysis of Seismic Intensity for Inslab and Interplate Earthquakes in Central Mexico

Jazmín Rojo-Chávez & L. Francisco Pérez-Moreno · Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology · 2026

This study evaluates the performance of two Ground Motion Prediction Equations (GMPEs) for inslab and interplate earthquakes when applied to the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt (TMVB) in central Mexico, addressing the lack of validation of forearc-calibrated models in this backarc re...

Topological Optimization and Robust Performance Zones of Rotational Friction in Seismic Retrofit: A Probabilistic Non-Smooth Dynamics Approach

Emiliano Ponce L, Miguel Á. Pérez Lara y Hernández, Humberto Yáñez-Godoy, L. Francisco Pérez-Moreno & Ivan Fermin Arjona Catzim · Current Journal of Applied Science and Technology · 2026

This study aims to identify optimal topological configurations of Rotational Friction Dampers (RFDs) for the seismic retrofit of a 10-story shear building, using a probabilistic performance-based approach. The non-linear stick-slip behavior of RFDs was modeled using the Non-Smoot...
