Pinching characterizes the hysteretic response of several structural systems. It is associated
with a reduced dissipated hysteretic energy under cyclic loading and can significantly affect …

This paper presents a novel computational approach to empirical hysteresis modelling
applied to timber-based structures based on a combined data model-driven strategy. While …

This study introduces an advanced community-level resilience analysis methodology
integrating 3D fragility surfaces for combined successive earthquake-tsunami hazard and …

The present study is concerned with the seismic analysis and design of light-frame timber
shear walls, with focus on the energy dissipation ensured by sheathing-to-framing …

The authors present a novel transcendental hysteresis model based on the piecewise
definition of arctangent functions. The definition of the shape parameters of the arctangent …

This study introduces a methodology for developing fragility functions that enable the
assessment of seismic vulnerability and resilience at the community level for buildings …

In lightweight timber frame buildings, the horizontal stability against, for instance, wind loads
is mainly ensured by shear diaphragms. These shear walls are typically constructed using a …

This dissertation, entitled “Simulation of Successive Events for Multi-hazard Community
Resilience Analysis,” aims to present an integrated framework for enhancing community …

The seismic performance of timber shear walls is studied in this work, with focus on the
energy dissipation ensured by sheathing-to-framing connections. Numerical non-linear …
