*Expanding Resilience-Based Design of Steel and Steel-Concrete Composite
Structures: From short-term extreme loads to long-term deterioration
mechanisms*

Speaker: Theodore L. Karavasilis, PhD
Professor, University of Southampton

Nov 9, Noon-1pm Eastern

Resilience-based design has seen major developments during the last two
decades. As a design philosophy, it aims to improve rather to accurately
predict the performance of a structural system. Research efforts have so
far focused on extreme loading conditions with the majority of them
addressing earthquake resilience, i.e. how to design a structural system to
return to functionality after a short, if not immediate, time after a
strong earthquake.

Within 40 minutes, this seminar will present the major outcomes of two
research projects on resilience-based design completed by the presenter and
co-workers in the UK.
