Flood hazards and masonry constructions: a probabilistic framework for damage, risk and resilience at urban scale

This paper deals with the failure risk of masonry constructions under the effect of floods. It is developed within a probabilistic framework, with loads and resistances considered as random variables. Two complementary approaches have been investigated for this purpose: <br><br&...
