ASSESSMENT OF SEISMIC VULNERABILITY OF HISTORICAL DEFENSIVE WALLS [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings 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 ...

Seismic Fragility Assessment of an Existing Multi-Span RC Bridge Equipped with Risk Mitigation Systems

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
The vulnerability of bridges and the effectiveness of suitable mitigation techniques in regions exposed to different seismic scenarios, while lacking reliable fragility assessment studies for existing bridge inventory, need focused attention.

Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of the Casamari Gothic Church [PDF]

open access: yesCivil-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.

Simplified Estimation of Economic Seismic Risk for Buildings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
A seismic risk assessment is often performed on behalf of a buyer of commercial buildings in seismically active regions. One outcome of the assessment is that a probable maximum loss (PML) is computed.
