Resilience and urban regeneration: lessons from community-led initiatives: the case study of Can Fugarolas in Mataró (Barcelona)
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-11-20)
Article
Open AccessIn recent years Urban Resilience has taken great relevance both in the academic field and urban governance and management. However, uncertainties and fuzziness hinder its implementation to urban planning realm, in general, ... -
Three-dimensional finite element analysis of the cyclic response of RC columns
(International Federation for Structural Concrete (fib), 2019)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents three-dimensional finite element models for the accurate response simulation of RC columns subjected to severe cyclic loading. The models integrate advanced constitutive models for concrete, steel ... -
Modeling bar slip and pullout capacity of straight anchorages
(International Federation for Structural Concrete (fib), 2019)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents an analytical method to predict the bar slip and pullout capacity of straight bars embedded in well-confined concrete, such as column bars extended into a footing or cap beam. Closed-form solutions of ... -
Seismic response analysis of a retrofitted concrete building in Mexico City
(International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineers (IABSE), 2019)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents results of an ongoing study on the seismic performance of a retrofitted concrete building located in the soft soil area of Mexico City. The original structure consisted of reinforced concrete frames in ... -
Performance of retrofitted concrete buildings during the September 19, 2017 earthquake in Mexico City
(International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineers (IABSE), 2019)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe 1985 Mexico City earthquake resulted in extensive damage and collapse of concrete construction. In the months and years following this earthquake, there was an unparalleled effort to repair and retrofit concrete ... -
Nonintrusive uncertainty quantification for automotive crash problems with VPS/Pamcrash
(2021-10-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyUncertainty Quantification (UQ) is a key discipline for computational modeling of complex systems, enhancing reliability of engineering simulations. In crashworthiness, having an accurate assessment of the behavior of the ... -
Experimental comparison of two testing setups for characterizing the shear mechanical properties of masonry
(Elsevier, 2021-09-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe prediction of the structural capacity of masonry buildings against lateral loads requires an accurate characterization of the masonry strength and the general response under shear stresses. The experimental determination ... -
Field monitoring of brine pipeline facility in the central region of Catalonia, Spain
