Trends in research and design of structures with seismic protection systems
(2015)
This article describes some of the new trends observed in research and design of structures equipped with seismic protection systems (SPS). This field of earthquake engineering has almost 40 years of formal development and ...
Seismic behavior of chilean bridges with seismic protection devices
(Escuela de Construcción Civil, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, 2015)
Several bridges with seismic protection systems have been built in the last decade in Chile. Accelerometer networks have been installed in some of them. Seismic records have been obtained by these instruments for moderate ...
Seismic Response of Hybrid Systems with Metallic and Viscous Dampers
(2016-06-27)
Metallic dampers can enhance structural performance by reducing seismically induced lateral displacements, and by reducing inelastic behavior of beams and columns. Limiting story drift also indirectly allows for mitigation ...
Overview of the seismic probabilistic safety assessment applied to a nuclear installation located in a low seismicity zone
(Associa????o Brasileira de Energia Nuclear, 2020)
Seismic probabilistic safety assessment and risk control of nuclear power plants in Northwest Europe
(2016)
Nuclear power plays a crucial role in energy supply in the world: around 15% of the electricity generated worldwide is provided from nuclear stations avoiding around 2.5 billion tonnes of CO2 emissions. As of January 2016, ...
