Data-Interpretation Methodologies for Non-Linear Earthquake Response Predictions of Damaged Structures

Seismic exposure of buildings presents difficult engineering challenges. The principles of seismic design involve structures that sustain damage and still protect inhabitants. Precise and accurate knowledge of the residual capacity of damaged structures is essential for informed decision-making rega...
