Abstract Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) based upon Operational Modal Analysis (OMA)
constitutes an increasingly mature and widespread technology in the conservation of historic …

Continuous monitoring of engineering structures provides a crucial alternative to assess its
health condition as well as evaluate its safety throughout the whole service life. To link the …

The paper discusses the usefulness of the dynamic characterization of buildings based on
the use of ambient vibration tests at different construction phases. The proposed …

In the context of seismic vulnerability assessment of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings, the
use of field monitoring data constitutes a significant tool for the representation of the actual …

FRIBAS database is an open access database (https://doi. org/10.5281/zenodo. 6505442)
composed of the characteristics of 312 buildings (71 masonry, 237 reinforced concrete and …

This study discusses the effect of buildings vibrations in the urban field in the context of local
seismic response studies in order to evaluate the possible occurrence of double resonance …

In the aftermath of an earthquake, data acquired by a monitoring system can be used to
identify possible damage that occurred in the structure by using algorithms to estimate …

The preservation of historical buildings mainly depends on our capacity to monitor their
ageing and quickly detect potential damage. We show how the dynamic characteristics of a …

Abstract Introduction Masonry minarets in Old Cairo are highly susceptible to earthquake
damage, particularly those not designed or updated to withstand seismic loads. Therefore …
