Seismic Retrofitting Resilience-Based for Strategic RC Buildings

open access: yesBuildings, 2021
The resilience of communities is given by the ideal convolution of the resilience of all their single parts. Strategic buildings require high levels of performance during and after a seismic sequence.

Prototype Test of Resilient Friction Materials for Seismic Dampers

open access: yesMaterials, 2023
In recent decades, low-yielding seismic devices based on the use of friction dampers have emerged as an excellent solution for the development of building structures with improved reparability and resilience. Achieving an optimal design for such low-yielding seismic devices requires precise control of bolt preloading levels and predictability of the ...

A three-staged framework for measuring water supply resilience in rural China based on PLS-SEM

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
China suffers from frequent large-scale earthquakes, posing a significant challenge to the development and integrity of its rural water supply system (RWSS). The earthquake resilience of water supply systems is understood to be a function of multifaceted

The Role of Seismic Structural Health Monitoring (S2HM) in the Assessment of the Delay Time after Earthquakes

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
The concept of seismic resilience has been introduced in the design of buildings in the last decade. In this regard, the delay time may be defined as the time that occurs between the event and the moment the repair process begins. In the literature, only

Seismic Resilience and Design Factors of Inline Seismic Friction Dampers (ISFDs)

open access: yesEng, 2023
While damping devices can provide supplemental damping to mitigate building vibration due to wind or earthquake effects, integrating them into the design is more complex. For example, the Canadian code does not provide building designs with inline friction dampers.
