CAS ETH in Seismic Evaluation and Retrofitting

How can we assess the seismic hazard and seismic risk in Switzerland? We were pleased and honoured to have the Head of the Earthquake Risk Mitigation of the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment FOEN Mr. Blaise Duvernay presenting a very interesting Session in this topic, including the new earthquake risk model of Switzerland, for the fourth CAS ETH in Seismic Evaluation and Retrofitting 2024-2025. #seismichazard #seismicrisk #modelling

What is the state of the art in uncertainty quantification? How can we model uncertainties in Civil Engineering? We were pleased and honoured to have Professor Bruno Sudret (Chair of Risk, Safety and Uncertainty Quantification at ETH Zurich) giving a very interesting lecture in this topic for the fourth CAS ETH in Seismic Evaluation and Retrofitting 2024-2025. #uncertaintyquantification #modelling #ethzurich

The lectures of the fourth CAS ETH in Seismic Evaluation and Retrofitting 2024-2025 have started at ETH Zurich. We were pleased and honoured to have Professor Bozidar Stojadinovic presenting a very interesting session on the principles of seismic design of new structures and the determination of the seismic vulnerability and seismic risk of existing structures worldwide. #seismicdesign #seismicvulnerability #ethzurich

Can we model the dynamic in-plane and out-of-plane response of unreinforced masonry buildings subjected to earthquake ground motion excitation? Can we model the connection between timber floor diaphragms and masonry walls? Dr. Francesco Vanin (Earthquake Engineer in Résonance Ingénieurs-Conseils, Graduate of the EESD Lab - EPFL) will present a very interesting Session on this topic, showing the advantages of the new Finite Element software SAMUEL, for the fourth offer of the CAS ETH in Seismic Evaluation and Retrofitting 2024-2025 at ETH Zurich.
