Sinopsis de Earthquake engineering: from engineering seismology to performance-based engineering

Performance-based engineering, use of energy dissipating devices, earthquake-resistant design, and other techniques in earthquake engineering have come of age in the last decade. Following a brief overview of traditional methods, Earthquake Engineering: From Engineering Seismology to Performance-Based Engineering presents the details of these recent advances in a single volume. The book elucidates advances in scientific knowledge, summarizes recent research project findings, covers design guidelines, and discusses the future challenges and directions. Highlights include: Historical development of earthquake engineering and its modern goal. Geosciences principles needed to define seismic hazards. Geotechnical hazards and engineering characterizations of ground motion. Deterministic and probabilistic methods of analysis. Performance-based earthquake engineering, its applications, and future direction. Innovative strategies a...
