A novel intensity measure (IM), dimensionless floor displacement, is presented for
evaluating the seismic fragility of freestanding rigid blocks subjected to one-sine …

Freestanding objects have endured seismic damage during major historical earthquakes,
but their seismic performance is not fully understood yet. A steel frame was constructed with …

While earthquakes pose a threat to both museum buildings and collections, the latter can be
especially vulnerable. Seismic damage to museum collections can be minimized by …

Earthquakes pose a significant threat to museum artifacts, as they can lead to irreversible
