Role of seismic testing facilities in performance-based earthquake engineering [electronic resource] : SERIES workshop / Michael N. Fardis, Zoran T. Rakicevic, editors.
Nowadays research in earthquake engineering is mainly experimental and in large-scale; advanced computations are integrated with large-scale experiments, to complement them and extend their scope, even by coupling two different but simultaneous tests. Earthquake engineering cannot give answers by te...
