Though flexible diaphragms play a role in the seismic behaviour of unreinforced masonry buildings, the effect of the connections between floors and walls is rarely discussed or explicitly modelled when simulating the response of such buildings. These flexi ...
The seismic assessment of masonry buildings, both modern unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings and historical heritage constructions, is a complex task, characterised by a several sources of uncertainty, which regard the appropriate modelling of strategy th ...
Seismic assessment of existing buildings is a very important area of research to predict the impact of an earthquake on an area. Over the years, unreinforced masonry buildings have shown to be highly vulnerable to seismic risk. Although Switzerland is cons ...
The objective of this project is the seismic retrofit of an existent steel structure with buckling restrained braces (BRBs), and the proposition of a possible heightening. The structure that will be analysed is the GC building on the EPFL campus, in Ecuble ...
The loading path the fault experiences is often neglected when evaluating its potential for reactivation and the related seismic risk. However, stress history affects fault zone compaction and dilation, and thus its mechanics. Therefore, in incohesive faul ...
Out-of-plane failure of masonry walls is often responsible for the partial collapse of unreinforced masonry structures. Modeling the out-of-plane response of these walls is therefore key in the assessment of existing buildings. The paper presents a new tri ...
Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) built before the introduction of the capacity design concept do not usually meet modern seismic design requirements. They are vulnerable to seismic events and they could develop unpredictable failure mechanisms. An exist ...
Steel lateral load-resisting systems offer a variety of design solutions to ensure a ductile behaviour of a structure during a seismic event, thereby achieving a relatively low earthquake-induced collapse risk, if designed and detailed properly according t ...

Current experimental studies on the seismic behavior of steel wide-flange columns under multi-axis cyclic loading reveal that these members, depending on their geometric characteristics, may be susceptible to axial shortening, out-of-plane deformations and ...

Capacity-designed steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs) dissipate the seismic action through inelastic flexural yielding of protected zones located at the beam ends and the first story column bottom end. During low-probability of occurrence seismic events, ...
