Abstract
The assessment of damage scenarios and human and material losses is essential for seismic risk reduction, even in regions of low or moderate seismicity. A seismic risk evaluation is carried out in the residential district of Eixample in Valencia (Spain), a district with great historical [...]
Abstract
This article presents a methodology for an estimate of the benefit cost ratio of the seismic risk reduction in buildings portfolio at broadscale, for a world region, allowing comparing the results obtained for the countries belonging to that region. This methodology
encompasses [...]
Abstract
In the present work, the main steps used in the probabilistic estimation of the seismic hazard of the city of Barcelona, Spain, are described, and it is mentioned how the hazard was used in the probabilistic estimation of the seismic risk of the city. [...]
Abstract
The present monograph is a continuation of the monograph MIS-10 and uses the same concepts and definitions described therein. [...]
Abstract
The present work is aimed at conducting studies of vulnerability and seismic risk of building structures. The objective of such studies is to try to predict the damage expected in a structure, in a group of structures or in an entire urban area, for an earthquake of certain characteristics. [...]
Abstract
This monograph presents the fundamental concepts related to seismic action, the structural response of buildings, the assessment of vulnerability, risk and seismic damage. [...]
