Individuals ground online group membership in offline relations and shared characteristics, aiming to maximize game-play gains and support sociability.

But though Mr. Tsai's characters are to some extent representative figures drifting in the existential void, they are also odd, lonely individuals grounded in the noise and clutter of their particular place and time, facing predicaments more often comical than terrifying -- or in the manner of silent films, comical to us and terrifying to them.

These average ratios typically vary between 1.1 and 1.6; however, ratios for individual ground motions can be as high as 5 for the EDPs examined.

In a seismological context, this curve clarifies simultaneously both the (1) POE of an individual ground shaking of interest and (2) the ground shaking level in any POE of interest.

Traditionally, the lateral strength of the SDOF systems in these studies has been determined from individual ground motion acceleration response spectra, requiring that the structure strength is recalculated for each ground motion used in an ensemble.

This paper investigates the effect of the differences between "smooth" (e.g., design) earthquake ground motion acceleration response spectra and individual ground motion linear-elastic acceleration response spectra on nonlinear single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) lateral displacement ductility demands.

While the relationships developed using this approach are important, in practical seismic design applications, the lateral strength of a structure does not vary with the individual ground motions considered in an ensemble.

It is shown that peak SDOF displacement ductility demand relationships developed based on individual ground motion spectra can lead to unconservative designs, particularly for survival-level, soft soil, and near-fault conditions.
