This paper presents the results of a series of shake-table tests on a half-scale, four-storey building with reinforced concrete (RC) and unreinforced masonry (URM) walls. Due to the lack of reference tests, the seismic behaviour of such mixed structures is ...
In several countries of central Europe, many modern residential buildings are braced by reinforced concrete (RC) and unreinforced masonry (URM) walls coupled with RC slabs. Such mixed constructions, in fact, behave better under seismic loading than buildin ...
The concept of simultaneous source has recently become of interest in seismic exploration, due to its efficient or economic acquisition or both. The blended data overlapped between shot records are acquired in simultaneous source acquisition. Separating th ...
Displacement-based seismic design and assessment procedures require as key input parameter estimates of displacement capacities of the critical elements. The displacement capacities of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls are typically determined by means of q ...
In recent years, there is an increasing need to quantify earthquake-induced losses throughout the expected life of a building in order to evaluate alternative design options such that we can minimize repairs in the aftermath of an earthquake. This paper di ...
This work evaluates the performance of a number of seismic assessment procedures when applied to a case study reinforced concrete (RC) wall building. The performance of each procedure is evaluated through its ability to accurately predict deformation deman ...
Nonlinear analysis has become an increasingly useful and important tool for evaluation, upgrade and design of structures for seismic resistance. However, despite steady improvements in analysis capability, most practice remains anchored to guidelines devel ...

Recent earthquakes in Chile (2010, M 8.8) and New Zealand (2011, M 6.3) have shown that, despite many years of extensive research and subsequent design code advancements, several modern reinforced concrete walls underperformed or even failed during these s ...
This paper quantifies the lateral overstrength and the collapse risk of steel buildings with perimeter special moment frames (SMFs) designed in highly seismic regions in North America. State-of-the-art analytical models that consider the contributions of t ...
The recent re-assessment of the seismic hazard in Europe led for many regions of low to moderate seismicity to an increase in the seismic demand. As a consequence, several modern unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings, constructed with reinforced concrete (R ...
