      Risk assessment and management is an important step towards resilient and sustainable cities. Among many other perils, both natural and manmade, seismic risk is a major threat for resilience and sustainability. In recent ...

    • Analysis of the key features of the seismic actions due to the three main earthquakes of May 11, 2011 in Lorca, Spain 

      Aguilar Meléndez, Armando; de la Puente Álvarez, Josep; Monterrubio Velasco, Marisol; Rodriguez Lozoya, Héctor Enrique; Rojas, Otilio; Calderón Ramón, Celia M.; Castillo Reyes, Octavio; García Elías, Alejandro; Campos Ríos, Amelia (2019)
      Article
      Open Access
      The seismic records are in general valuable information, especially in cases where damage in buildings has occurred. The main purpose of the present document is to describe the principal results of the analysis of features ...

    • Comparative analysis of a new assessment of the seismic risk of residential buildings of two districts of Barcelona 

      Aguilar Meléndez, Armando; Pujades Beneit, Lluís; Barbat Barbat, Horia Alejandro; Monterrubio Velasco, Marisol; Puente Álvarez, Josep de la; Lantada, Nieves (2022)
      Article
      Open Access
      There are personal and institutional decisions that can increase the seismic resilience of the buildings in a city. However, some of these decisions are possible if we have basic knowledge of buildings’ seismic risk. The ...

    • Detection, counting, and classification of visual ganglia columns of drosophila pupae 

      Arriaga Varela, Enrique Javier; Moya Sánchez, Eduardo Ulises; Aguilar Meléndez, Armando; Castillo Reyes, Octavio; Vázquez Santacruz, Eduardo; Salazar Colores, Sebastián; Cortés García, Claudio Ulises (2019)
      Article
      Open Access
      Many neurobiologists use the fruit fly (Drosophila) as a model to study neuron interaction and neuron organization and then extrapolate this knowledge to the nature of human neurological disorders. Recently, the fluorescence ...

    • Evaluación probabilista del riesgo sísmico de edificios en zonas urbanas 

      Aguilar Meléndez, Armando (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2011-07-23)
      Doctoral thesis
      Open Access
      In the present work a probabilistic methodology to estimate the seismic risk of buildings in urban areas is proposed. The seismic risk obtained through this methodology is expressed in terms of annual probabilities of ...

    • Sensitivity analysis of seismic parameters in the Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA) for Barcelona applying the new R-CRISIS 

      Aguilar Meléndez, Armando; Ordaz Schroeder, Mario Gustavo; Puente, Josep de la; Pujades Beneit, Lluís; Barbat Barbat, Horia Alejandro; Rodriguez Lozoya, H.E.; Monterrubio Velasco, Marisol; Escalante Martínez, Jesús E.; Campos Ríos, Amelia (2018)
