Seismic verification of existing buildings in Switzerland is currently assessed by the pre-standard 2018. In the seismic evaluation of existing buildings in that document, a minimal acceptable seismic safety must be verified, as well as proportional level ...
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 ...
Large slow slip events (SSEs) occur in the so-called Guerrero Gap, a segment of the Mexican subduction zone where no large earthquake occurred for more than one century. Analyzing the relations between slow slip and earthquakes in this region is a key ques ...
As an approach to the problem of seismic vulnerability evaluation of existing buildings using the predicted vulnerability method, numerical models can be applied to define fragility curves of typical buildings which represent building classes. These curves ...
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 ...
«For me, to build an air terminal with stone would be a stupidity, not to say a madness. But to use dynamic structures to fit three-roomed flats with kitchen in buildings from three to ten floors, is not less aberrant.»1 Provocation of a reactionary archit ...
Fling-step and forward directivity, which can impose unexpected seismic demands on structures, are the main consequences of near-fault earthquakes. Although the adverse effect of forward directivity on structures behavior is determined to some level, the i ...
Filling materials may exist in all scales of rock fractures, not only influencing seismic wave attenuation, but controlling rock mass instability. The objective of this study is to experimentally investigate the seismic response of rock fractures filled wi ...
The aim of this paper is to adjust behaviour models for each class of structure for vulnerability assessment by using ambient vibration. A simple model based on frequencies, mode shapes and damping, taken from ambient vibrations, allows computation of the ...
