Seismic Risk Assessment and Retrofitting
Many more people are coming to live in earthquake-prone areas, especially urban ones. Many such areas contain low-rise, low-cost housing, while little money is available to retrofit the buildings to avoid total collapse and thus potentially save lives. The lack of money, especially in developing countries, is exacerbated by difficulties with administration, implementation and public awareness. The future of modern earthquake engineering will come to be dominated by new kinds of measuring technologies, new materials developed especially for low-rise, low-cost buildings, simpler and thus lower cost options for retrofitting, cost cutting and raising public awareness. The book covers all the are...
Energy-Based Seismic Engineering
This volume gathers the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of seismic engineering, as presented by leading researchers and engineers at the 1st International Workshop on Energy-Based Seismic Engineering (IWEBSE), held in Madrid, Spain, on May 24-26, 2021. The contributions cover a diverse range of topics, including energy-based EDPs, damage potential of ground motion, structural modeling in energy-based damage assessment of structures, energy dissipation demand on structural components, innovative structures with energy dissipation systems or seismic isolation, as well as seismic design and analysis. Selected by means of a rigorous peer-review process, they will spur novel research directions and foster future multidisciplinary collaborations.
Seismic Assessment and Rehabilitation of Existing Buildings
The present volume contains a total of 23 papers centred on the research area of Seismic Assessment and Rehabilitation of Existing Buildings. This subject also forms the core of Project SfP977231, sponsored by the NATO Science for Peace Office and supported by the Scientific and Technical Research Council of Turkey [ TUBIT AK ]. Most of these papers were presented by the authors at a NATO Science for Peace Workshop held in Izmir on 13 - 14 May, 2003 and reflect a part of their latest work conducted within the general confines of the title of the NATO Project. Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey serves as the hub of Project SfP977231 and coordinates research under the project wit...
Uzat Ellerini Ruhuma
Uzat Ellerini Ruhuma, şair M. Ercan Yüksel’in ilk şiir kitabıdır. İçerisindeki şiirler genel olarak kişinin duygu değişimlerini ve bu duruma karşı gelemeyişini anlatıyor. Okuyacağınız şiirlerde özlem, aşk ve yalnızlık duyguları ağır basıyor. Bu duygular kimi zaman şairin en büyük yardımcısıyken kimi zaman en büyük düşmanı oluyor. Bu duygu birikimi zaman içerisinde bir isyana bile dönüşebiliyor. Hatta şair öyle bir noktaya geliyor ki bir şiirinde aşk ve nefreti ikiz kardeş ilan ediyor. İsminden de anlaşılacağı üzere kitap bir sesleniş, yakarış da içeriyor. Bu kitap; sizlere, okuma serüveniniz boyunca binbir çeşit duyguya ve düşünceye tanıklık edeceğiniz, bu duygu ve düşünceleri kimi zaman benimseyip kimi zaman onlara karşı çıkacağınız güzel anlar vaat ediyor.
Advances in Earthquake Engineering for Urban Risk Reduction
Earthquakes affecting urban areas can lead to catastrophic situations and hazard mitigation requires preparatory measures at all levels. Structural assessment is the diagnosis of the seismic health of buildings. Assessment is the prelude to decisions about rehabilitation or even demolition. The scale of the problem in dense urban settings brings about a need for macro seismic appraisal procedures because large numbers of existing buildings do not conform to the increased requirements of new earthquake codes and specifications or have other deficiencies. It is the vulnerable buildings - liable to cause damage and loss of life - that need immediate attention and urgent appraisal in order to de...
