DOI: 10.1007/s10518-019-00577-5
Abstract: The columns and the supporting foundations are invariably subjected to the interacting axial force, V, shear force, H and moment, M. It is quite common to consider the interaction of these forces in design of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2018.12.063
Abstract: Abstract The simplest structural analysis for assessing the seismic capacity of a masonry arch is limit analysis. In fact, assuming an equivalent static seismic load, this method can be used to determine the lateral acceleration… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/buildings9060140
Abstract: The seismic capacity of the main Uto City Hall building, which was severely damaged by the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake, was evaluated by the proposed pushover-based procedure. In this procedure, the seismic capacity index of the… read more here.
