Record‐Wise Disaggregated Seismic Fragilities for Interconnected Systems

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seismic risk assessment studies typically rely on fragility functions/curves to characterize the susceptibility of an asset or a class of assets to damage. These curves are essentially a summarization of responses evaluated on the basis of ground motions with record characteristics and intensities that may or may not be tied to a specific site

Combined Vertical and Horizontal Components of Near‐Source Earthquakes and Impact on Base‐Isolated Structures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over recent decades, the collection of seismic data has improved the understanding of near‐fault ground motion effects, which involve both horizontal and vertical components. Among the most significant effects are fault‐normal directivity, which concentrates seismic energy into an intense, long‐period pulse, and fault‐parallel fling step ...

Seismic vulnerability analysis of steel buildings in Bogotá, Colombia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A number of mid-height steel buildings have been erected recently in Bogotá. Their seismic risk might be high, given the new microzonation of Bogotá and the lack of previous studies; remarkably, the response reduction factors were commonly obtained from ...

Seismic Performance and Generalized Damage Risk of Modular Cross Laminated Timber Houses Across Ten United States Cities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Housing shortages in the United States and the pursuit of sustainable and resilient communities have positioned cross‐laminated timber (CLT) housing as a promising alternative due to the ability to design for modularity, ease of construction, and low embodied carbon performance.

Influence of damage degree of recycled coarse aggregate concrete-filled steel tube columns strengthened with envelope steel jacket under seismic load

open access: yesJournal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering
In order to discuss the influence of damage degree of recycled coarse aggregate concrete-filled steel tube columns strengthened with envelope steel jacket (ESJ) under seismic load, eight columns were designed and manufactured to simulate seismic loading,
