The paper describes the derivation of fragility curves useful for the seismic risk analyses of
existing unreinforced masonry buildings inserted in aggregate. The L-shaped examined …

The micro-mechanism of mooing depth effect on the interactions between suction piles and
granular soil remains unclear. This study investigates suction pile-soil interaction behaviour …

Seismic modelling of unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings is addressed worldwide
according to different approaches, not only at research level, but also in the current …

The diffusion of seismic structural health monitoring systems, evaluating the dynamic
response of engineering structures to earthquakes, is growing significantly among strategic …

This work investigates the interactions between the soil and a superstructure subjected to
various seismic waves using variable-kinematics finite beam elements. Artificial boundary …

In order to improve the construction effect of intelligent buildings, this paper combines the
BIM digital twin technology to construct the overall structure of the building construction …

The assessment of the seismic vulnerability of masonry buildings requires reliable and
computationally efficient numerical models. Different modelling strategies can be adopted …

The paper presents the comparison of the results of nonlinear static analyses carried out
using six software packages (SWs) available at professional level and operating in the field …

In the last 20 years, there have been a series of seismic events in Italy that have caused
serious damage to civil and building structures. This has led to a significant increase in the …
