Unreinforced masonry buildings with flexible timber floors are amongst the most vulnerable building typologies for seismic loading. Though flexible diaphragms play a role in the seismic behaviour of unreinforced masonry buildings, the impact of the connect ...
Free-standing masonry column is a recurrent typology of built cultural heritage. Usually raised without seismic design, columns are subject to intense rocking and overturning under strong ground motions. In this paper, a strategy to assess their seismic vu ...
The Basel region is one of the most seismically active regions in Switzerland. Already devastated by Nature in 1356, the city of Basel is now actively involved in assessing the seismic risk on its buildings in order to protect its patrimony and its populat ...
Reinforced concrete (RC) coupling beams are often used to transfer and resist the earthquake loads. Coupling beams can improve significantly the stiffness and the strength of the all lateral resistant structure. By performing inelastically they decrease th ...
Motivated by the seismic response of unanchored liquid storage tanks, their uplift mechanism under strong lateral loading is examined. Using three-dimensional finite element models, nonlinear static analysis is conducted to define the moment-rotation relat ...
The response of concrete gravity dams under seismic loads is a major concern of dam safety assessment in earthquake-prone areas. This study focuses on the seismic analysis of the tallest non-overflow monolith of Pine Flat Dam. The paper presents results of ...
This paper presents a procedure for the extension of the Vulnerability Index Method (VIM) to the seismic assessment of hybrid timber-masonry buildings. The research is based on the execution of a detailed numerical study of this peculiar structural typolog ...
This paper explores the concept of dissipative exposed column base connections by means of anchor rod yielding. This concept aims at enhancing the seismic performance of low-rise steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs). A mechanics-based model is proposed tha ...
Reinforced concrete (RC) coupling beams are often used to transfer and resist the earthquake loads. Coupling beams can improve significantly the stiffness and the strength of the all lateral resistant structure. By performing inelastically they decrease th ...
Seismic risk analysis, at large scale and local scale, is fundamental support for mitigating the investment costs and recovery works, impacting society's economy. The presented article's main purpose is to present a mechanicalbased model to evaluate the fr ...
