Energy input spectra applicable to the seismic design of structures in moderate-to-high seismicity regions such as Colombia are proposed. They are derived from the bilinear envelope of individual spectra ...
Aguilar Meléndez, Armando (Date of defense: 2011-07-23)
In the present work a probabilistic methodology to estimate the seismic risk of buildings in urban areas is proposed. The seismic risk obtained through this methodology is expressed in terms of annual ...
Yazgan, Ahmet Utku (Date of defense: 2012-09-07)
This work proposes design energy spectra in terms of an equivalent velocity, intended for regions with design peak acceleration 0.3 g or higher. These spectra have been derived through linear and nonlinear ...
