Abstract
The present paper discusses seismic behaviour of multi-tier pagoda temple. The seismic behaviour was examined by different pushover analysis techniques including adaptive pushover analysis. The case study objective is a five-tier pagoda. The studied pagoda is built of timber frameworks [...]

This paper investigates the capability of advanced numerical modelling techniques to simulate experimental observations as damage or deformations in complex masonry structures. The case of the church of St. Bassiano in Pizzighettone, Cremona Italy is chosen. A multidisciplinary [...]Abstract
The heritage building stock represents a significant element at risk from earthquakes, as recent seismic events have shown, especially in the Mediterranean area. In fact, in the last few years, the issue of assessing its seismic vulnerability has been widely discussed by the scientific [...]
