Kahramanmaraş Earthquake Sequence of 6th of February is the deadliest earthquake that happened in Turkey in the era of instrumental seismology, claiming more than 55 thousand lives and leaving torn down cities and towns behind. More than 450 km long lateral strike-slip fault ruptured during these catastrophic …

Post-earthquake structural damage shows that out-of-plane wall collapse is one of the most prevalent failure mechanisms in unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings. This issue is particularly critical in Groningen, a province located in the northern part of the Netherlands, where low-intensity ground shaking …

Monitoring the Combined Effects of Induced Earthquakes and Climate Change on a Heritage Building in Groningen

''Heritage buildings are often subjected to loading conditions that they were not exposed to in their earlier life span. Induced earthquakes in non-seismic regions caused by energy exploitation activities, or strains in the ground that are caused by the climate changes, are new phenomena that alter the …

Dit onderzoek richt zich op een urgente versterkingsmaatregel na aardbevingen om de seismische restcapaciteit van door aardbevingen beschadigde gewapend betonnen wandconstructies met koppelliggers te verbeteren. Het onderzoek bestaat uit een serie testen op halfschaal prototype koppelbalken met verschillende …

Aiming for increased accessibility and adaptability, higher educational institutes are making their curricula more flexible, offering students more freedom to choose what courses they want to take. Making a well-informed choice out of many possible elective courses is difficult, because it requires the …

Out-of-plane (OOP) wall collapse is one of the most common failure mechanisms in unreinforced masonry (URM) structures. Insufficient connections at wall-to-wall, wall-to-floor or wall-to-roof levels are one of the main reasons for OOP failures. The seismic assessment of URM buildings with insufficient …
