Alfarah, Bashar (Date of defense: 2017-06-09)
Under severe seismic excitation, structural behavior of buildings and other constructions is highly complex. It involves, among other issues, soil-structure interaction, large strains and displacements, damage, plasticity, ...
Abdel-Kareem Moustafa, Mohammed Ismail (Date of defense: 2009-11-09)
Basado en la idea de reducir la demanda sísmica en lugar de aumentar la capacidad resistente de las estructuras, el aislamiento sísmico es un método simple para mitigar o reducir los posibles daños producidos por los ...
Kharazian, Alireza (Date of defense: 2017-11-23)
Collision between adjoining buildings is relevant, since the huge impact forces significantly modify the buildings dynamic behaviour. The separation required by the regulations avoids pounding; however, even in recent ...
García Núñez, Jesús Rafael (Date of defense: 2007-10-23)
La presente tesis tiene por objeto estudiar el fenómeno de licuación de arenas desde diferentes perspectivas, comparando algunos métodos clásicos, de tipo empírico, con otros procedimientos más modernos basados en el ...
Montalbán Turón, Carlos (Date of defense: 2021-06-30)
(English) In this PhD Dissertation the structural performance of buildings with stairs submitted to lateral loads, is investigated. Because of the historical neglect of the interaction effects between the main structure ...
Vargas Alzate, Yeudy Felipe (Date of defense: 2013-07-09)
Esta tesis propone una metodología de evaluación del daño sísmico basada en el método del espectro de capacidad pero con un enfoque probabilista que se apoya en simulaciones Monte Carlo. Así la acción sísmica, la estructura ...
Hidalgo Leiva, Diego (Date of defense: 2017-01-30)
The damage assessment of structures under seismic actions, must seek the implementation of new theories, tools and procedures that reduce the uncertainty associated to the expected structural response of a building. This ...
Ávila Haro, Jorge Arturo (Date of defense: 2021-07-01)
Despite the fact that masonry is one of the oldest and most used building materials, the number of existing studies and experimental data, as well as the applicability of its results (i.e. extrapolation), are substantially ...
Díaz Alvarado, Sergio Alberto (Date of defense: 2017-09-18)
The main objective of this thesis is the probabilistic assessment of the expected seismic damage in steel buildings located in Mexico City. Although a deterministic analysis is performed both, seismic actions and buildings, ...
Valcárcel Torres, Jairo Andrés (Date of defense: 2013-02-01)
Los daños por terremotos en edificios y sistemas esenciales han motivado la definición de estándares de comportamiento de estas instalaciones, buscando reducir las pérdidas económicas y la pérdida de funcionalidad. Varias ...
Schmidt Diaz, Victor (Date of defense: 2010-10-15)
La memoria de Tesis se ha estructurado en dos grandes partes, en la primera se obtienen las ecuaciones predictivas del movimiento del suelo para América Central y en la segunda se lleva a cabo un estudio de microzonificación ...
Vielma Pérez, Juan Carlos (Date of defense: 2008-02-29)
En el proyecto sismorresistente de edificios tal como es aplicado actualmente, se parte de ciertas consideraciones cuya validez no siempre está clara o en algunos casos no permiten al proyectista tomar decisiones que hagan ...
Cruz Cháidez, Servio Tulio de la (Date of defense: 2003-07-17)
Esta Tesis trata de la simulación numérica y experimental de estructuras de edificios equipadas con disipadores de energía de fricción, sujetos a cargas de sismo. La Tesis pretende contribuir a la evaluación de la eficacia ...
Alva Bañuelos, Rodrigo Esteban (Date of defense: 2021-09-17)
The time required to inspect damaged structures after an earthquake has a direct impact on the social and economic consequences of the event, which can be catastrophic. Developing tools to aid the inspection task is of ...
Martín Balet, Alejo (Date of defense: 2023-06-23)
(English) This thesis proposes to determine a damaged structure using the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of modal frequency variation of sorne damaged and undamaged configurations. The estimators used are the accumulated ...
Rasol, Mezgeen Abdulrahman Rasol (Date of defense: 2021-01-20)
The study of surface geology by means of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) can provide information about abrupt lateral changes in the terrain. The location ofthese changes is very useful in seismic nanozonation studies, since ...
Pinzón Ureña, Luis (Date of defense: 2020-09-18)
Earthquakes are defined as a "violent shaking of the Earth's crust and mantle, caused by forces acting inside the Earth". In most cases, these forces are caused by an energy release process generated from the contact of ...
Bedoya, Daniel A. (Date of defense: 2005-12-19)
Uno de los actuales retos sociales, no sólo de Colombia, si no de la comunidad mundial, es el bienestar y mejora de la condiciones de vida de todos los habitantes del planeta. Aunque suene ambicioso, esta tesis quiere ...
Moreno González, Rosangel (Date of defense: 2006-09-28)
The analysis of the structural seismic response has gained a special importance both for the seismic design of buildings as for predicting the damage caused by earthquakes. In this thesis a complete study about the seismic ...
González Díaz, Marta (Date of defense: 2010-05-14)
La combinación de los estudios de peligrosidad y de vulnerabilidad permite simular escenarios de daño, con dos utilidades principales: 1) antes del sismo, como herramienta para políticas de prevención ante desastres sísmicos ...
