The presented research investigates the application of close-range photogrammetry surveying techniques and Augmented Reality (AR) visualization to design a semi-automated method for rapidly measuring structural damage induced in tall buildings by seismic events such as earthquakes or explosions. Close-range photogrammetry algorithms were designed to extract spatial information from photographic...

Construction of building omitting an infill wall mostly in ground floor and other floors has led a to face soft story failure mechanism. This omission is for commercial purposes parking vehicles floor. In this study, study on the behavior structure done when happens different levels. A explained as per NBC 201 205 taken into consideration. Soft assigned all responses separately. An equivalent d...

Abstract Earthquake is one of the horrible natural disasters. With considerable developments in constructional science, experts have been able to find out factor forces that cause earthquakes damage and destructions different types buildings, including residential commercial caused by earthquake are high importance need be considered. The multi-story buildings usually weak points building, whic...

The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) time-series data derived from Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) have been extensively used for studying inter-annual dynamics of global and regional vegetation. However, there can be significant uncertainties in the data due to incomplete atmospheric correction and orbital drift of the satellites through their active life. Access ...

A structure may be subject to several aftershocks after a mainshock. In many seismic design provisions, the effect of sequences is either not directly considered or has been underestimated. This study examined behavior reinforced concrete (RC) moment-resisting structures with shear walls under sequences. Two three-dimensional short and medium height were designed analyzed seven real mainshock–a...

A seismic fragility curve is a visual representation that illustrates the likelihood of structure surpassing particular damage or performance limit state caused by an earthquake with specific intensity ground motion level. This typically generated using probabilistic hazard analysis and structural reliability methods. It based on statistical models rely past data simulations future scenarios to...

Since the appearance of first modern multistories buildings, besides demand ensuring bearing capacity, one urgent problems facing engineer is to do how design structure ensure requirements normal use such as displacement, motion acceleration within permissible limits. There exist many methods reduce these response under lateral load. Among these, using fluid viscous damper (FVD) most applied eq...
