The extension of the damages observed after the last major earthquakes shows that the
seismic risk mitigation of infilled reinforced concrete structures is a paramount topic in …

The detrimental infill‐frame interaction and vulnerable nature of the traditional solid infill
walls might change the seismic behavior of the infilled reinforced concrete frames. To …

Collecting and analyzing observational data are essential to learning and implementing
lessons in earthquake engineering. Historically, the methods that have been used to …

Seismic resilience assessment is a hot topic for highlighting the functional recovery of
structures in post-earthquake environments. The current resilience assessment method …

This study investigates the seismic behavior of eccentrically braced frames (EBFs) taking
into account the influence of masonry infill walls using a nonmodel scenario-based machine …

This study aims to propose a multi-strut macro-model, capable of simulating the overall force-
displacement behaviour of infilled frames with various opening configurations. For this …

Reliable analytical and empirical models of the force-deformation parameters used to
characterize the nonlinear behavior of masonry panels are essential to simulating the …

This study investigates the seismic response of reinforced concrete buildings designed
according to the current Italian building code. Number of stories, site hazard, presence and …

Old precast buildings are often characterized by poor detailing that may hamper the
structural performance, particularly in the case of earthquakes. This is essentially related …

Seismic rehabilitation is crucial to extend the nominal service life and help reduce the
seismic losses of reinforced concrete precast industrial buildings. Along with traditional …
