Abstract
The structural analysis and reinforcement project is presented for a city complex consisting of 31 houses with obvious signs of failure, built in the city of Barquisimeto in 2008 on unconstrained land. The results of the analysis showed insufficient responsiveness to service stresses, [...]
Abstract
This paper has two purposes: one conceptual and the other practical. On a conceptual level, it outlines a model for understanding how TV operates as a social mediator in the event of natural disasters, and at the practical level, it recommends measures that can be used to optimize [...]Abstract
These slides (in Italian) were presented during the FOSS4G-IT 2017 conference, held in Genova (Italy) on February 9-10, 2017 (http://www.dicca.unige.it/geomatica/foss4git_2017/index.html). The presentation is about the exploitation of OpenStreetMap (OSM) database in the emergency [...]Abstract
The main purpose of this study is to develop a Geospatial Information System (GIS) model with the ability to assess the seismic damage to pipelines for two well-known hazards, including ground shaking and ground failure simultaneously. The model that is developed and used in this [...]Abstract
The study of earthquake losses in structures has been traditionally addressed for a single seismic intensity, but this could be unrealistic since throughout the life of a building it can be subjected to several earthquakes with different intensities. This paper analyzes the relations [...]
Abstract
This work deals with the analysis of the interaction of earthquakes with pipelines transporting and distributing natural gas for industrial and civil use. To this aim, a new large data-set of seismic information classified on the basis of selected seismological, geotechnical and structural [...]Abstract
The structural integrity of pipelines undergone seismic waves is crucial for industrial installation and for the distributed transportation networks of gaseous and liquid fluids. However, it is nowadays proved that the definition of seismic vulnerability based on purely, structural-derived [...]
