Abstract
ObjectiveThis module enables participants:
- To use the state-of-the-art FEM software and implement the optimal FE modelling techniques for the simulation of the seismic response of existing buildings (concrete, masonry, mixed concrete-masonry) located in Switzerland
-To obtain knowledge of the FEM software and the modelling techniques for the simulation of soil-structure interaction
-To understand the current methodologies for the identification and monitoring of the vibration and the seismic behavior of structures located in Switzerland.
