Synopsis

This book contains selected papers presented at the sixth International Conference on Earthquake Resistant Engineering Structures (ERES). This book provides a forum for the discussion of the latest developments in innovative design and construction of new earthquake resistant structures as well as the retrofitting of existing buildings. The ERES conference continues to attract promising young researchers as well as familiar names in the field of earthquake engineering. This combination is the main reason why the ERES meetings continue to bring to the attention of the international scientific community original high quality papers on topics such as: earthquake resistant design, bridges, seismic isolation, passive protection devices and seismic isolation, self-centering systems, site effects and geotechnical aspects, seismic behaviour and vulnerability, lifelines, monitoring and testing, retrofitting, and structural dynamics.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Earthquake mitigation remains an engineering topic of paramount scientific importance, as demonstrated by the tragic events following the Sumatra earthquake and tsunami of December 24th, 2004 that reverberated across the globe and generated world-wide sympathy for the victims and their plight.
