The knowledge of ground motion attributable to earthquakes is essential for the design of earthquake-resistant structures, and for the evaluation of the seismic vulnerability of existing ones. Among all possible sources of uncertainty stemming from the structural and soil material properties, the selection of earthquake-induced ground motions has the highest effect on the variability observed in the response history analysis of earthquake-resistant systems.
This Minisymposium aims at discussing new developments and open research issues addressing:
- Palmeri Alessandro, Reader, Loughborough University, United Kingdom, a.palmeri@lboro.ac.uk
- Muscolino Giuseppe, Full Professor, University of Messina, Italy, gmuscolino@unime.it
- Genovese Federica, Assistant Professor, University “Mediterranea” of Reggio Calabria, Italy, federica.genovese@unirc.it
