The pursuit of a sustainable society requires an extensive intervention on the existing
buildings, which are responsible for the major share of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In …

Seismic fragilities of buildings are often developed without consideration of soil-structure
interaction (SSI), where base of the building is assumed to be fixed. This study highlights …

Poor seismic performance of non-code conforming RC buildings, mainly designed for gravity
loads prior to 1970s, highlights the need for reliable vulnerability assessment and retrofitting …

The probabilistic seismic hazard of Portugal is analyzed with a logic tree approach. A critical
part of the work was the review of the seismic catalog and the moment magnitude (M) …

Simplified mechanics-based approaches for the seismic performance analysis are used for
the risk assessment of large bridge portfolios. This study evaluates the applicability and …

A new ground-motion prediction equation for 5%-damped horizontal spectral acceleration
applicable to Iran is presented. On the basis of analysis of variance (ANOVA), selected West …

The consensual agreement that ground motion record selection plays an important role in
the non-linear dynamic structural response has contributed to numerous research studies …

To improve the transport infrastructure of the Republic of Uzbekistan, there is a tendency to
build monolithic structures of bridges and overpasses. The article presents the calculation of …

This paper intends to contribute to the validation of the extended N2 nonlinear static method
of seismic analysis through the study of two existing reinforced concrete frames. The scope …

We deal here with the task of realistically assessing macroseismic intensities of historical
earthquakes causing significant damage to cities, from the perspective of using such …
