Assessment of specific structural and ground-improvement seismic retrofitting techniques for a case study RC building by means of a multi-criteria evaluation
(Elsevier, 2022)
Existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures might not comply with current seismic codes due to their aseismic design and construction date. By seismically retrofitting them, it is possible to improve their seismic ...

Fragility assessment of RC buildings in southern spain based on neural network predictions
(2023)
The computational burden needed to perform a fragility analysis of structures can be excessive and beyond the capability of regular computing systems. In this work, a Neural Network (NN) implementation is presented to make ...

Influence of the constructive features of RC existing buildings in their ductility and seismic performance
(Springer, 2021)
This paper aims to analyse the ductility of existing buildings to evaluate its influence in their 14 seismic performance. This has been achieved through the retrospective analysis of an existing 15 building in accordance ...

Seismic behaviour study of primary schools in Algarve and Huelva cities. Case study of three different building technologies
(2019-05)
A project named PERSISTAH (Projetos de Escolas Resilientes aos SISmos no Território do Algarve e de Huelva, in Portuguese) is being developed. It aims to cooperatively assess the seismic vulnerability of primary schools ...
Libro
Why does the ground shake?
(Editorial Universidad de Sevilla, 2020)
This manual is designed to sup-port the training of primary school teachers, instructors and technicians, who want to improve their knowledge and develop activities about seismic and tsunami risk. The contents and information ...

Numerical investigation of the contribution of the soil-structure interaction effects to the seismic performance and the losses of RC buildings
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
Seismic vulnerability and loss analyses of buildings are usually estimated under the fixed-based condition, omitting the soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects. However, according to the literature and the seismic damage ...

Regional correlations for estimating seismic amplification. Implications for loss assessment in SW Iberia
(Elsevier, 2020)
Most earthquake-related losses are enhanced by soil amplification phenomena, especially in areas where high vulnerability assets coexist. These mechanisms are frequently inferred from empirical formulas. These procedures ...

Specific seismic retrofitting of a compact reinforced concrete building with X-bracings and steel jackets. Application to a primary school in Huelva
(Public Library of Science, 2020-09)
Previous research has indicated that many European buildings are vulnerable to moderate-magnitude earthquakes. For example, during the L´Aquila (Italia, Mw 6.3, 2009) and Lorca (Spain, Mw 5.9, 2011) earthquakes, many old ...

Analysis of the influence of atriums in seismic performance of RC primary school buildings
(Springer, 2022)
Spanish primary school buildings are likely to present a high seismic vulnerability. This is due to two main factors: (a) most of them were built prior to the enforcement of the Spanish seismic codes; (b) the elevated ...

Analysis of the soil structure-interaction effects on the seismic vulnerability of mid-rise RC buildings in Lisbon
(Elsevier, 2022)
Soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects are usually omitted in the seismic vulnerability analyses of buildings. However, it has been proved that they might notably affect their seismic performance. In fact, European ...
