Comparison of vulnerabilities in typical bridges using macroseismic intensity scales

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
The macroseismic intensity scale in different regions is extensively assessed in the vulnerability assessment of building structures and is rarely used to quantify the damage characteristics of group bridges. To more accurately examine the differences in

Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of the Casamari Gothic Church [PDF]

Civil-Comp Proceedings, 2015
This paper focuses on the seismic behaviour of the Casamari Gothic church located close to Frosinone in Italy. Linear static and dynamic finite element analyses are developed using a three-dimensional model of the whole church employing the commercial code ABAQUS.

ASSESSMENT OF SEISMIC VULNERABILITY OF HISTORICAL DEFENSIVE WALLS [PDF]

Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering (COMPDYN 2015), 2015
Abstract. This paper presents a study on the behaviour of the walls of the Rocca Roveresca of Senigallia in Italy built in the XIV century on the ruins of a former Roman defensive struc-ture. This is a peculiar example of a small fortress that had undergone in the XV century im-portant modifications of the plant in order to enhance its defensive ...

Assessment of Enhanced Dempster-Shafer Theory for Uncertainty Modeling in a GIS-Based Seismic Vulnerability Assessment Model, Case Study—Tabriz City

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
Earthquake is one of the natural disasters which threaten many lives every year. It is impossible to prevent earthquakes from occurring; however, it is possible to predict the building damage, human and property losses in advance to mitigate the adverse ...
