Non-linear deconvolution for identification of engineering bedrock seismic motion
(2021)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn earthquake engineering, only ground surface records are usually available, given that accelerometers are commonly installed at the ground level. If the motion of the lower soil layers is of interest, it must be estimated ... -
Evidences of directional soil response comportment
(Universitat d'Alacant, 2023)
Conference lecture
Open AccessIn recent years, the importance of considering other peaks than the predominant in the soil response has been revendicated. One possible explanation for some of these secondary peaks in the soil response is the presence ... -
Concrete-filled cold-formed chord studs to improve the seismic performance of steel framing buildings
(University of Sydney, 2023)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyLight gauge steel framing is increasingly used, mainly for low-rise buildings. However, for mid-rise buildings, their lateral strength is rather low; therefore, seismic effects can be highly demanding. Steel bracing has ... -
Estimation of the dynamic seismic response of buildings through transfer functions: a probabilistic approach
(National Technical University of Athens, 2023)
Conference lecture
Open AccessThe significant number of seismic ground motion records to be considered when designing or assessing civil structures is a common restriction. This is because the large computational time involved in the calculation of the ... -
Reduced order models to estimate seismic risk of unreinforced masonry dwellings
(National Technical University of Athens, 2023)
Conference report
Open AccessIn order to estimate seismic risk at an urban level it is necessary to consider several sources of uncertainty. However, the higher the uncertainties related to both structural modelling and seismic hazard, the higher the ... -
Wind turbine gearbox condition monitoring using vibration data and Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients
(Scipedia, 2023)
Conference report
Open AccessA new methodology for wind turbine condition monitoring that utilizes vibration data and Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) is being developed to accurately assess the condition of the wind turbine gearbox. ... -
Evaluación del comportamiento sismorresistente de edificación de 6 plantas con pórticos de hormigón armado con vigas banda en Ecuador
(Sociedad Mexicana de Ingeniería Sísmica, 2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyEcuador es un país con alta amenaza sísmica por su ubicación cercana a la zona de subducción de la Placa de Nazca con la Placa sudamericana y la presencia de fallas geológicas activas. La práctica constructiva y la normativa ... -
Probabilistic Evaluation of Post-Earthquake Functional Recovery of a Seismically Isolated RC Building
(2022)
Conference report
Open AccessAll earthquakes throughout history have taught us that damage to non-structural elements and content has serious repercussions on the direct economic cost of damage and functionality. In essential buildings such as hospitals, ... -
Two complex high rise buildings case studies equipped with SLB seismic devices
(2022)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policySeismic protection devices such as energy dissipators have been used in structures for many years. However, it has not been until the last years that computers allowed assessing the full advantages of these devices in large ... -
Spectral velocity-and energy-based intensity measures
(2022)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe statistical relationship between parameters that represent the intensity of ground motions induced by earthquakes (Intensity Measures, IM) and the nonlinear response of buildings (Engineering Demand Parameters, EDP) ... -
A simplified approach to account for directionality effects on 2D dynamic soil-structure interaction analysis
(CRC Press, 2019)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this study, a simplified approach to account for directionality effects on twodimensional (2D) dynamic soil-structure interaction analyses (DSSI) is proposed. When an earthquake is recorded, the direction with the maximum ... -
Acquisition and processing of buildings’ vibrations using a Real-Aperture Radar, a non-invasive method
(2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this paper, a simplified non-invasive method to diagnose the safety state of buildings is tested. The method is based in remote sensing measurements of the natural vibrations of actual buildings using an interferometric ...
