We evaluated the performance of a high-rise residential building model in Purwokerto, Indonesia due to the seismic load. The evaluation was performed based on seismic loads given in the 2002 and 2012 Indonesian National Standard (SNI) using linear static analysis, dynamic response analysis and pushover analysis. Based on the linear static analysis, the drift ratio decreased by an average of 34.42 and 32.61% for the X and Y directions respectively. Meanwhile, based on the dynamic response analysis, the drift ratio also decreased by an average of 30.74 and 27.33% for the X and Y directions respectively. In addition, the pushover analysis indicates that the performance of this high-rise residential building model is still at Immediate Occupancy (IO) level. The post-earthquake damage state in which the building remains safe to occupy, essentially retaining the pre-earthquake design strength and stiffness of the structure. The risk of life-threatening injury as a result of structural damage is very low. Although some minor structural repairs may be appropriate, these would generally not be required prior to re-occupancy.

This study aims to investigate the influence of trabecular bone in human mandible bone on the mechanical response under implant load. Three dimensional voxel finite element (FE) model of mandible bone was reconstructed from micro-computed tomography (CT) images that were captured from bone specimen. Two FE models were developed where the first consists of cortical bone, trabecular bone and implants, and trabecular bone part was excluded in the second model. A static analysis was conducted on both models using commercial software Voxelcon. The results suggest that trabecular bone contributed to the strength of human mandible bone and to the effectiveness of load distribution under implant load.
