Estimating Arias Intensity From Response Spectrum
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 10, Page 2169-2183, August 2026.ABSTRACT Arias intensity serves as a crucial metric to measure ground motion energy and is extensively utilized in earthquake engineering to analyze structural damage, slope instability, and the potential for soil liquefaction. Nevertheless, in many practical design scenarios, only the response spectrum is available, without corresponding information ...

On the degrading/hysteretic response of masonry under seismic loads [PDF]
, 2018 The seismic assessment of masonry buildings requires the definition of adequate models. Simplified approaches have well known positive outcomes, but the definition of their properties to describe all the complex phenomena in which structural elements are

Seismic Meta‐Fragility Functions
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 10, Page 2504-2510, August 2026.ABSTRACT Fragility functions make for one of the three key components of probabilistic seismic risk analysis, along with hazard and consequence and/or exposure models. They are, in principle, construction‐specific; however, risk analysis is more often performed on a larger (e.g., regional) scale. In this case, so‐called typological fragility curves are

The use of continuum models for analyzing adobe structures [PDF]
, 2012 As it is known, the adobe structures have a high seismic vulnerability principally due to the low material strength and sometimes due to the inadequate structural configuration.

Archaeometry, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 761-772, August 2026.ABSTRACT Ten timbers from the spire scaffold of Salisbury Cathedral were dated using a combination of ring‐width dendrochronology, stable oxygen isotopic dendrochronology and radiocarbon dating. Seven timbers were coeval and assigned a combined empirical felling date range of 1352–1378, which was further refined to 1351–1359 (OxCal 95.4%).
