Seismic Vulnerability and Risk Assessment of Historic Masonry Buildings [PDF]
, 2013 Seismic risk evaluation of built-up areas involves analysis of the level of earthquake hazard of the region, building vulnerability and exposure. Within this approach that defines seismic risk, building vulnerability assessment assumes great importance, not only because of the obvious physical consequences in the eventual occurrence of a seismic event,

Seismic evaluation of the southbound Stellenberg Interchange Bridge, B5593, in South Africa
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study presents a nonlinear finite element assessment of the seismic vulnerability of Bridge B5593, located in the south‐western region of South Africa. Previous evaluations identified a high likelihood of column failure; however, these were based on linear material models incapable of capturing damage evolution.

Swedish National Seismic Network
, 1904 The Swedish National Seismic Network (SNSN) started with the installation of a Wiechert seismograph in Uppsala in 1904. Since 1998 the SNSN is a part of the Department of Earth Sciences at Uppsala University.

On the Assessment of the Seismic Vulnerability of Ancient Churches
, 2015 The chapter deals with the assessment of the seismic vulnerability of the “San Francesco ad Alto” historical masonry building, a former church located in Ancona (Italy), which is currently used as a Regional Headquarter of the Marche Region by the Italian Army. The interest toward this building comes from a double motivation.

INTEGRATING BIM WITH ON SITE INVESTIGATION FOR SEISMIC VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT
Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering (COMPDYN 2015), 2019 The Italian school buildings asset consists of over 40,000 units. The most (more than 60%) were built before the introduction of the national standard on school buildings and constructions in seismic areas. The present research aims to implement a methodology that consists in an informative modelling for seismic risk analysis.

Kinematics‐based model for shear capacity assessment of unreinforced interior beam–column joints
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study presents a kinematics‐based model for assessing the shear strength of reinforced concrete interior beam–column joints without transverse reinforcement. The proposed framework is built on first principles—kinematics, equilibrium, and constitutive relations—and explicitly models discrete cracks by introducing kinematic parameters such

Effective axial strength of laterally strengthened RC pier heads with post‐tensioning method
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates the structural performance enhancement of reinforced concrete (RC) pier heads laterally strengthened with unbonded post‐tensioning (PT) to accommodate increased design loads following a deck replacement of an existing railway bridge.
