In recent years, the occurrence of a series of extreme events has raised awareness of what
progressive collapse of mainstream reinforced concrete frame structures can cause in terms …

Robust performance‐based earthquake assessment should consider the effects of both
aleatory and epistemic uncertainty on seismic response parameters. While the effects of …

It is widely accepted that infill walls play an important role in the structural response of
buildings under seismic excitations. Disregarding their influences on the seismic design and …

During the last years, several mechanics-based macromodels have been proposed to
assess the cyclic response of infilled RC frames. However, the uncertainties behind the …

Vibration‐based methodologies are nowadays gaining increasing application for the
structural health monitoring and damage detection on buildings, especially damage due to …

With a view to providing general Storey Loss Functions (SLFs) for existing reinforced
concrete (RC) residential buildings in Italy, this paper layouts the procedure and the …

The finite element numerical model of prestressed concrete frames with infilled walls (IW-PC
frame) is established to investigate the progressive collapse resistance under the failure of …

Unreinforced masonry-infilled reinforced concrete frames are a prevalent taxonomy class
not only in the Mediterranean region but also in Europe and worldwide, where buildings of …

Since progressive collapse usually has serious consequences, the problem of progressive
collapse resistance has gradually become a topical issue in recent years. However, most of …

Recent seismic events highlighted the importance of non-structural elements in seismic
assessment and performance-based earthquake engineering. When referring to industrial …
