Earth is a traditional building material used through History in many areas around the world. Nowadays, there is also a significant revival of its use because of its ecological value and architectural performance. However, there is still a lack of knowledge about its actual mechanical behavior. This paper is aimed at providing experimental data...

Although it has good compressive behavior, adobe masonry is classified as a quasi-brittle material mainly due to its relative low tensile strength and softening behavior after the peak tensile strength. The behavior, plus the high variability in the adobe mechanical properties, makes it difficult to evaluate the performance of entire adobe...

This paper presents a damage identification method for beam-type structures based on the wavelet analysis. The damage location is predicted by a Damage Locating Index (DLI) based on a combined identification of local maxima from the scalograms of mode shapes. A new Damage Severity Index (DSI) based on the Lipschitz exponent is formulated such...
