Journal Article · · AIP Conference Proceedings
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.2963778· OSTI ID:21148924

The necessity to maintain functionality during and after an earthquake, means that we have to protect not only structures but also functional elements that are inside each building, in particular for strategic constructions, like hospitals, schools. Fortunately, modern solutions to prevent the possibility of failure exist and, very important, are available.
