Giardina, Giorgia (author), Macchiarulo, V. (author), Foroughnia, Fatemeh (author), Jones, Joshua N. (author), Whitworth, Michael R.Z. (author), Voelker, Brandon (author), Milillo, Pietro (author), Penney, Camilla (author), Adams, Keith (author), Kijewski-Correa, Tracy (author)Remote reconnaissance missions are promising solutions for the assessment of earthquake-induced structural damage and cascading geological hazards. Space-borne remote sensing can complement in-field missions when safety and accessibility concerns limit post-earthquake operations on the ground. However, the implementation of remote sensing...journal article 2023

(author)On 14th August 2021, a magnitude 7.2 earthquake struck the Tiburon Peninsula in the Caribbean nation of Haiti, approximately 150 km west of the capital Port-au-Prince. Aftershocks up to moment magnitude 5.7 followed and over 1,000 landslides were triggered. These events led to over 2,000 fatalities, 15,000 injuries and more than 137,000...journal article 2022

Peduto, Dario (author), Prosperi, A. (author), Nicodemo, Gianfranco (author), Korff, M. (author)This study presents a novel framework in which numerical modelling contributes to the performance of district-scale, subsidence-induced damage assessment in cities where ground settlements affect entire quarters. Therein, the implementation of expeditious procedures offers geotechnical engineers the possibility of contributing beyond the...journal article 2022

Macchiarulo, V. (author), Milillo, Pietro (author), DeJong, Matthew J. (author), González Martí, Javier (author), Sánchez, Jordi (author), Giardina, Giorgia (author)Structural deformation monitoring is crucial for the identification of early signs of tunnelling-induced damage to adjacent structures and for the improvement of current damage assessment procedures. Satellite multi-temporal interferometric synthetic aperture radar (MT-InSAR) techniques enable measurement of building displacements over time...journal article 2021

(author), Imamura, Fumihiko (author)In November 2013, Super Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda) hit the Philippines. It caused heavy loss of lives and extensive damages to buildings and infrastructure. When collapsed buildings are focused on, it is inter-esting to find that these buildings did not collapse for the same reasons after the landfall of the typhoon and storm surge. The...journal article 2020

Giardina, G. (author)This thesis focuses on the modelling of settlement induced damage to masonry buildings. In densely populated areas, the need for new space is nowadays producing a rapid increment of underground excavations. Due to the construction of new metro lines, tunnelling activity in urban areas is growing. One of the consequences is a greater attention to...doctoral thesis 2013
