Structural restoration of a historic palace in Italy by Paolo Foraboschi

“…One of the key novelties of this study is the introduction of a method for designing and structurally analyzing a rehabilitation work aimed at enhancing the load-bearing capacity of masonry columns and piers under gravitational loads. The discussion also emphasizes the often-overlooked limitations of material testing in accurately assessing masonry strength and delves into the critical impact of material and geometric nonlinearities on maximum stress levels – issues that remain underexplored in the existing literature.…”

Machine Learning-Based Probabilistic Seismic Demand Model of Continuous Girder Bridges by Wenshan Li, Yong Huang, Zikai Xie

“…The results indicated that random forest (RF) is the most suitable model to predict the longitudinal and transverse curvature at the bottom of the four piers from the coefficients of determination. More specifically, the relative importance of each parameter in the model is evaluated, and peak ground velocity (PGV), peak spectral velocity (PSV), Arias intensity (AI), and Fajfar intensity (FI) are found to be the critical factors for the RF-based PSDM. …”
