A probabilistic approach for seismic risk assessment based on vulnerability functions: application to Barcelona
(2019-04)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyRisk 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 ... -
Quantitative analysis of risk from fragmental rockfalls
(2019-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyRockfalls are ubiquitous diffuse hazard in mountain regions, cliffs, and cutslopes, with the potential of causing victims and severely damaging buildings and infrastructures. A vast majority of detached rock masses break ... -
Multi-temporal analysis of morphologic changes applying geomatic techniques: 70 years of torrential activity in the Rebaixader catchment (Central pyrenees)
(2019-01)
Article
Open AccessThe monitoring of morphologic changes in high-mountain environments is an important, but complex task. Terrestrial as well as airborne laser scanning (TLS and ALS) and digital photogrammetry (DP) using Unnamed Aerial Vehicle ... -
Earthquake risk scenarios in urban areas: a review with applications to the Ciutat Vella district in Barcelona, Spain
(Taylor & Francis, 2018-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe vulnerability index and capacity spectrum-based methods used to assess the expected physical damage in dwellings are revisited, and their main advantages and shortcomings are analyzed and discussed. Then, a vulnerability ... -
Landslide monitoring using multi-temporal SAR interferometry with advanced persistent scatterers identification methods and super high-spatial resolution terraSAR-X Images
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2018-06-01)
Article
Open AccessLandslides are one of the most common and dangerous threats in the world that generate considerable damage and economic losses. An efficient landslide monitoring tool is the Differential Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry ... -
Seismic energy analysis as generated by impact and fragmentation of single-block experimental rockfalls
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2018-06)
Article
Open AccessThe analysis of seismic signals obtained from near-source triaxial accelerometer recordings of two sets of single-block rockfall experiments is presented. The tests were carried out under controlled conditions in two ... -
Monitoring of a full-scale embankment experiment regarding soil–vegetation–atmosphere interactions
(2018-06)
Article
Open AccessSlope mass-wasting like shallow slides are mostly triggered by climate effects, such as rainfall, and soil–vegetation–atmosphere (SVA) interactions play a key role. SVA interactions are studied by a full-scale embankment ... -

Article
Open AccessEn aquest article s’aporta una proposta didàctica, la qual ens permet utilitzar l’assignatura de tecnologia com a principal matèria per poder treballar de manera interdisciplinària continguts del currículum de l’àmbit ... -
Fuzzy inference system for muti-hazard physical risk assessment in urban areas
(2018-01)
Article
Open AccessThe urban areas may be exposed to different natural hazards; in order to jointly evaluate the potential risk, this article proposes a methodology for the qualitative assessment of the multi-hazard physical risk by using a ... -

(2017-12-01)
Article
Open AccessLicensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. This article presents a methodology to process information from a Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS) from three dimensions (3D) to two dimensions (2D), and to two dimensions with a color ... -
The use of geomatic techniques to improve the management of metro infrastructure
(2018)
Article
Open AccessThe management of large infrastructures requires comprehensive knowledge of their characteristics and the elements that constitute them. It is essential to know which elements are involved and where they are located. At ... -
Structural assessment of the Roman wall and vaults of the cloister of Tarragona Cathedral
(Elsevier, 2017)
Article
Open AccessThe Mediterranean city of Tarragona was a capital city in Roman times. Nowadays, the remains of the ancient constructions coexist with many subsequent buildings. This is the case of the Gothic Cathedral cloister, whose ...
