The present study focuses on enhancing the seismic resistance of existing masonry structures. To that aim, the use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthening serves to improve structural behaviour by attaching FRP strips to the masonry walls. Despite ...
Performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE) has become an increasingly popular framework to design, retrofit and manage structures. This probabilistic framework integrates data from the seismic hazard, structural response, damage fragility and damage c ...
Nonlinear static and dynamic analyses are utilized by engineers for performance-based seismic risk evaluation of new and existing structures. In this context, nonlinear component modeling criteria are typically based on ASCE 41 guidelines. Experiments on w ...
For a geoscientist, the Relative Geologic Time (RGT) is an important tool to perform chronostratigraphic analysis. However, automatically estimate an RGT image from a seismic image can be a challenging task where we have to respect seismic features, the de ...
