Practical engineers should gain confidence in base isolation as an alternative to stiffening, a possible design approach for new as well as for existing buildings even under rare seismic conditions (in large corner period areas and for pulse-type seismic...

This study aims to analyze the longitudinal seismic performance of a typical multi-span continuous girder bridge with seat-type abutments under earthquake excitation, especially accounting for different abutment behaviors. Three-dimensional finite elemen...

This study proposed a novel V-bracing system equipped with a laterally layered friction damper (LLFD), which can supplement the shortcomings of conventional vibration control systems and is applicable to existing reinforced concrete (R/C) buildings. A ma...

Due to their excellent seismic behavior, shear wall-type concrete buildings are very popular in earthquake-prone countries like Chile. According to current seismic regulations, the performance of such structures can be indifferently assessed through line...

The structural analysis of historic masonry churches subject to earthquakes is commonly based on two distinct approaches: that of the global response to seismic actions and that of the local analysis of a priori pre-determined collapse mechanisms. This i...

The first step for learning any calculation code for seismic response analysis is an adequate understanding of how to properly set the boundary conditions and the properties of the soil model at the initial stage, i.e., before the shaking event. To pursu...

The behavior of a reinforced concrete building, seismically isolated with high damping rubber bearing (HDRB) and sliding devices (SD), observed during the most important events of the seismic sequence that struck central Italy from August 2016 to January...

The flat slab-flanged wall (FSFW) coupled system has gained popularity in recent years; however, its seismic performance remains an issue, as beams and columns in it are commonly eliminated. To tackle this problem, embedding concrete-filled steel tubes (...

The seismic risk assessment of existing urban areas provides important information for the process of seismic risk reduction in different phases of planning and emergency management. Between different large-scale assessment approaches, a vulnerability in...

In this work, the non-linear dynamic response of buildings is studied considering both the horizontal component and the vertical component of seismic acceleration records. With an adequate discretization of the structure, it is found that the plastic rot...
