A computational model for probabilistic analysis using the pseudo-dynamic method: a case study of the effects of seismicity on the structural behavior of the Jucazinho Dam in Pernambuco

Abstract The study of the behavior of gravity dams under seismic actions has, over time, been little explored in engineering projects in Brazil. In Brazil, although the occurrence of large magnitude earthquakes is uncommon, seismicity is not zero, especially in passive margin areas with intraplate seismicity. This stud...
