Assessment of seismic safety of historical structures is a challenging task because the
information available about the assessed structure is usually limited. Therefore, it is often …

Compared with other diagnostic techniques, which are limited to the local investigation, the
structural dynamic monitoring allows to obtain information about seismic response and …

Assessing and reducing the seismic risks associated with historical structures require an
appropriate knowledge of structural behaviour and characteristics, as suggested by recent …

The present work is concerned with the introduction of a new first level pre-and post-
earthquake seismic assessment protocol for buildings that relies on the use of recorded …

Non-linear dynamic analysis is recognized as the more accurate tool for seismic evaluation
of structures in the case of both probabilistic assessment and design. The key issue in …

This paper represents a continuation of a review on the seismic safety assessment of
historical structures using some selected integrated investigation activities. In the first part of …

In the case of heritage buildings, non-invasive techniques are of paramount interest,
especially those that can exploit the natural vibration of the structure. Structural Health …

Seismic risk mitigation in urban areas is a very relevant issue in European regions, such as
Italy and Greece, characterized by the presence of a large stock of heritage structures …

This study presents the findings of the structural health monitoring and the real time system
identification of one of the first large scale building instrumentations in Turkey for earthquake …

Structural Health Monitoring and Damage Detection are areas of current interest in civil,
