Curvas de fragilidad para estructuras de pórticos de hormigón armado en Puerto Rico involucrando el efecto de las paredes de mampostería no estructurales
(2008)
Las estructuras de pórticos de hormigón armado con paneles de mampostería como relleno representan una porción significativa de las estructuras construidas en Puerto Rico y en muchas partes del mundo. Muchos de los ingenieros ...
Modeling load effects of water on coastal structures using STAR CCM+ software
(2019-07-11)
Global warming brings as consequence an alteration in precipitation and increase in the sea water level. These consequences generate flood loads in structures near to the coast. The forces generated by these floods are: ...
Seismic performance and fragility curves for reinforced concrete frame and shear wall residential buildings in Puerto Rico
(2007)
Puerto Rico is situated in an earthquake prone region. Most of residential buildings in Puerto Rico are reinforced concrete structures. Because of the imminent risk of being affected by a strong earthquake, it is important ...
Earthquake induced damage estimation for steel buildings in Puerto Rico
(2006)
This work presents a method for estimating the expected damage caused by an earthquake on steel buildings in Puerto Rico. Since Puerto Rico is located between a series of tectonic faults, buildings could suffer the damages ...
Análisis no lineal tridimensional estático y dinámico de pórticos de hormigón armado con deficiencia en el hormigón de columnas
(2015-07)
This work consisted in developing and programming a three dimensional non-linear analysis model for reinforced concrete structures using the incremental method for the application of loads or displacements and the Newmark ...
