Probabilistic parametric analysis of capacity, fragility and expected seismic damage of framed reinforced concrete buildings
(2025-01)
Article
Open Access1160 framed reinforced concrete buildings, holding 3–13 stories, have been modelled in a probabilistic way. Capacity spectra have been calculated and characterized by means of 5 parameters: initial stiffness, ultimate ... -

Improved intensity measures considering soil inelastic properties via multi-regression analysis
(Frontiers Media SA, 2023-08)
Article
Open AccessAt certain depths, the elastic properties of the ground are not affected by seismic waves. However, as they reach the surface, the soil density decreases and so does its elastic limit. This means that the expected ground ... -
