Modelling Debris Distribution of Masonry Panels Subject to Blast Loads Using Experimental & Applied Element Methods
last loading and its interaction with structures is a complex phenomenon even in the simplest of cases and modelling its effects is a non-trivial task. This complexity is increased when dealing with long...
Development of Fragility Functions for Low Strength Masonry Buildings in Nepal using Applied Element Method
arthquake risk assessment and preparation of earthquake risk scenario is a strong awareness raising and planning tool for implementing earthquake risk management activities. Use of appropriate fragility...

Aspects Concerning Progressive Collapse of a Reinforced Concrete Frame Structure with Infill Walls
he present paper proposes modern approaches, nonlinear static and dynamic analysis procedures based on the Applied Element Method, to assess a progressive collapse problem of a RC frame structure with infill...
Alternate Path Progressive Collapse Analysis of Steel Stud Bearing Wall Structures
he Alternate Path Method is used to examine the vulnerability of a 5-story barracks building to progressive collapse based on DoD criteria UFC-4-023-03. The building is composed of composite deck floor...
Seismic Progressive Collapse Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Bridges by Applied Element Method
uring seismic response, redistribution of load carried by damaged or failed structural members to adjacent members may lead to overstress or exceeding load resistant capacity of the other members resulting...
Analysis of FRP-to-Concrete Joint Assemblies with FRP Spike Anchors using the Applied Element Method
xperiments have shown fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) spike anchors to increase the bond strength of FRP-to concrete joint assemblies. However, the debonding mechanism is not yet fully explained and a...
Modeling Progressive Collapse of RC Bridges during Earthquakes
he research on progressive collapse of structures generally focuses on gravity and blast loadings and the design objective is to increase the redundancy and robustness of structures to prevent progressive...
Use of Applied Element Method to Simulate the Collapse of Buildings
he numerical simulation of a progressive collapse of structures is a very actual concern. Engineers are more and more interested in structures integrity estimation and collapse theory finding, in order to...
Application of the Applied Element Method to the Seismic Vulnerability Evaluation of Existing Buildings
s an approach to the problem of seismic vulnerability evaluation of existing buildings through the predicted vulnerability method, analytical models can be applied to define the capacity curves of typical...
