Would RC wide-beam buildings in Spain have survived Lorca earthquake (11-05-2011)? [PDF]
, 2016 Lorca earthquake (11-05-2011) is most destructive event recorded in Spain, causing nine fatalities and other severe consequences. Its important intensity was rather unexpected, and serious concern arose regarding risk of building stock in Spain.

Redundancy In Steel Frames With Masonry Infill Walls
, 2009 Structural redundancy is an interesting point in seismic design of structures. Initially, the structural redundancy is described as indeterminate degree of a system. Although many definitions are presented for redundancy in structures, recently the definition of structural redundancy has been related to the configuration of structural system and the ...

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

Numerical model to account for the influence of infill masonry on the RC structures behaviour [PDF]
, 2005 It is a common misconception considers that masonry infill walls in structural RC buildings can only increase the overall lateral load capacity, and, therefore, must always be considered beneficial to seismic performance.

Assessment of the Out-of-Plane Resistance of Masonry Infill Walls [PDF]
Civil-Comp Proceedings, 2015 Observation of damage after earthquakes has highlighted that out-of-plane failures of masonry infill walls may often occur even in the case of low or moderate earthquakes, causing both casualty risks for people and unfavourable situations affecting the overall structural response. In recent years, several experimental tests have been carried out trying
