This paper presents a methodology to perform a cost-benefit analysis to assess possible options such as retrofitting or reconstruction of structures focused on mitigation [...]

This paper proposes a methodology and an equation to determine the vulnerability of masonry structures taking into account the variability of mechanical properties due to [...]

A methodology for the estimation of uniform vulnerability spectra (UVS) is proposed. The methodology includes two main stages: On the one hand, the zone seismicity defini [...]

This paper presents a new methodology based on structural performance to determine uniform hazard design spectra with the same probability of exceedence of a performance [...]
