    En esta comunicación se resume una guía para la evaluación de la vulnerabilidad sísmica de edificios esenciales, elaborada en el marco del proyecto EFA158/16/POCRISC. La guía incluye los antecedentes, los métodos de primer ...

  • Seismic behaviour of the walls of the Parthenon: A numerical study 

    Psycharis, Ioannis; Drougkas, Anastasios; Dasiou, Maria Eleni (2009)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    A numerical study of the behaviour of the walls of the Cella of Parthenon subjected to seismic loading is presented. Commonly used numerical codes for masonry structures based on continuum mechanics are unable to handle ...

  • Numerical Analysis of a Masonry Infill (Divided Into Smaller Wallettes) Under in-Plane Cyclic Tests 

    Drougkas, Anastasios; Adami, Chrissy-Elpida; Vintzileou, Elizabeth; Palieraki, Vassiliki (2016)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    asonry infill in reinforced concrete frames has been recognised as being a strong factor influ- encing the seismic behaviour of buildings. Therefore, the development of innovative infill systems, coupled with the rigorous ...

  • Numerical analysis of the out-of-plane response of two new systems for masonry infills 

    Drougkas, Anastasios; Adami, Chrissy-Elpida; Vintzileou, Elizabeth; Palieraki, Vassiliki (2016)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    he out-of-plane behaviour of two new systems for infill walls, made of clay masonry units, is numerically investigated. The two systems were developed within the INSYSME project. In the first system the enclosure wall ...

  • Structural conservation engineering in practice: lessons learned 

    Drougkas, Anastasios; Verstrynge, Els (2019)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Conservation engineering, as stated by the components of the term, draws from both conser- vation principles and modern engineering practice in an attempt to balance the demands of both preservation values and comprehensive ...

  • Numerical analysis of settlement-induced damage to a masonry church nave wall 

    Bejarano Urrego, Leidy; Verstrynge, Els; Drougkas, Anastasios; Giardina, Giorgia; Bassier, Maarten; Vergauwen, Maarten; Van Balen, Koen (2018)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Differential soil settlements can induce structural damage to heritage buildings, causing not only economic but also cultural value losses. In 1963, the Saint Jacob’s church in Leuven was permanently closed to the public ...

  • Semi-automated creation of accurate FEM meshes of heritage masonry walls from point cloud data 

    Bassier, Maarten; Hardy, Gil; Bejarano Urrego, Leidy; Drougkas, Anastasios; Verstrynge, Els; Van Balen, Koen; Vergauwen, Maarten
    Conference report
    Open Access
    The structural analysis of buildings requires accurate spatial models. Additionally, pathologies such as settlement-induced damages are paramount in the assessment of heritage assets. This spatial information is used as ...

  • Laser scanning, monitoring and analysis of a reconstructed masonry vault 

    Drougkas, Anastasios; Bassier, Maarten; Vergauwen, Maarten; Verstrynge, Els (CRC Press, 2019)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Reconstruction of historic building elements is often necessary in adaptive re-use projects. Optimally this is performed with as much original material as can be sal- vaged. However, the use of hydraulic lime mortars ...

  • Influence of masonry steel reinforcement on the in-plane behavior of infilled rc frames 

    Drougkas, Anastasios; Adami, Chrissy-Elpida; Vintzileou, Elizabeth; Palieraki, Vassiliki (2018)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Numerous typologies for the layout of steel bars in reinforced masonry members have been proposed in the literature and in relevant design codes. Given that such reinforcement can increase the load-bearing capacity and ...

  • Frailty level prediction in older age using hand grip strength functions over time 

    Pérez Guindal, Elsa; Torres Rangel, José Enrique de Jesús; Musté Rodríguez, Marta; Pérez López, Carlos; Macho Pérez, Oscar; del Corral Guijarro, Francisco S.; Somoano Sierra, Arís; Gianella Blanco, Cristina; Ramírez, Luis; Català Mallofré, Andreu (2021)
    Conference lecture
    Open Access
    Frailty syndrome can be defined as a clinical state in which there is a rise in individual vulnerability, developing an increase in both the dependence of the person and mortality. Frailty is completely related to age. A ...
