AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Existing school buildings in Switzerland that have been designed from the early 1970s typically utilized a modular architectural layout and structural system commonly known as CROCS (Centre de rationalization de d’organisation des constructions scolaires). ...
This paper addresses seismic vulnerability assessment at an urban scale and more specifically the capacity curves involved for building damage prediction. Standard capacity curves are a function of predefined building typology and are proposed in the Risk- ...
During the last decade, a number of hysteretic models have been developed to simulate complex deteriorating mechanisms observed in steel components such that earthquake-induced collapse risk can be reliably assessed. Such models are typically calibrated wi ...
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 ...

The Multi-Directional Hybrid Testing System (MDHTS) at Polytechnique Montreal is an advanced structural testing system that can be used to study the response of large-scale structural components such as columns, walls, or bridge piers subjected to any comb ...
In many countries of moderate to high seismicity, reinforced concrete (RC) core walls are used as lateral bracing systems in mid- to high-rise buildings where they typically accommodate lift shafts or stair cases. Unlike planar walls which provide horizont ...
Steel concentrically braced frames inherently provide great strength and stiffness, and are widely used for seismic resisting systems in buildings. These include conventional buckling braced frames and buckling restrained braced frames. Although the latter ...
This paper contains a seismic assessment at urban scale of the cities of Sion and Martigny in Switzerland. These two cities have been identified for the present research based on their importance regarding size and the characteristics of the building stock ...
This paper assesses the composite beam effects on the hysteretic behavior of fully-restrained beam-to-column connections as part of steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs) designed in highly seismic regions. A practical approach is developed based on availabl ...

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 ...
