  1. 1. Cross-comparison of Non-Linear Seismic Assessment Methods for Unreinforced Masonry Structures in Groningen

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Viktor Peterson; Zihao Wang; [2020]
    Keywords : Non-linear time-history analysis; non-linear pushover analysis; N2- method; equivalent frame model; continuum model; numerical seismic assessment; unreinforced masonry buildings iv;

    Abstract : A large amount of low-rise unreinforced masonry structures (URM) can be foundin Groningen, the Netherlands. More and more induced earthquakes with shortduration have been detected in this region due to gas exploitation. READ MORE

    Author : Darlene Rini; [2018]
    Keywords : Urban fire risks; informal settlement fires; urban fire risk management; GIS; URDI; urban disasters; risk indexing; fire statistics; Metro Manila; Quezon City; Science General;

    Abstract : Urban fires, particularly in informal settlements in rapidly urbanizing cities in the developing world, are an “everyday disaster” that oftentimes goes unnoticed or under-served in the face of disturbances of the more “lethal reputation”. These disturbances of normal existence are arguably the most debilitating to vulnerable communities and sustainable development, and yet get little attention in disaster literature or in practice.
