COupled seismogenic GEohazards in Alpine Regions (COGEAR) is an interdisciplinary natural hazard project investigating the hazard chain induced by earthquakes. It addresses tectonic processes and the related variability of seismicity in space and time, ear ...
Fragility functions are commonly used in performance-based earthquake engineering for predicting the damage state of a structure subjected to an earthquake. This process often involves estimating the structural damage as a function of structural response, ...
Fragility functions that permit the estimation of damage in pre-1994 welded flange bolted-web beam-to-column moment connections are developed. The fragility functions provide estimates of the probability of yielding and of experiencing fracture as a functi ...
This paper aims to provide an insight into the urban governance of four medium-sized Haitian cities hit by the earthquake of 2010, bearing in mind two affirmations of J. Pierre on urban governance; namely, that it is the better analytical model for the con ...
We present a damage scenario based on multidisciplinary study which covers the key elements of the earthquake risk chain in Visp. Full dynamic rupture simulations are performed using heterogeneous initial distributions, statistically compatible to the data ...
Occurrences of large earthquakes having a magnitude larger than eight along subduction zones have been reported worldwide. Due to large number of load reversals the effect of cumulative damage on structural components due to deterioration becomes critical ...
The analysis of strong and weak motion recordings in existing structures is critical for understanding both the damaging process during earthquakes and their structural behavior. The time-frequency representation is one of the existing methods to get infor ...
The seismic assessment of existing buildings has been underestimated in regions with moderate seismic hazard, such as the North-West Europe. Strong earthquakes, such as the 1356 Basel earthquake, already occurred in such regions and caused severe damage. T ...
