A potential major disaster at an industrial site could affect several countries, probably far beyond the country where it is located. However, the seismic design and safety assessment of these facilities is practically based on national, often outdated seismic hazard assessment studies, due to many reasons, including the absence of a reliable, commonly developed seismic hazard model for whole Europe. This important gap is no more existing, as the 2020 European Seismic Hazard Model ESHM20 was released in December 2021. In this paper we investigate the expected impact of the adoption of ESHM20 on the seismic demand for industrial facilities, through the comparison of the ESHM20 probabilistic hazard at the sites where industrial facilities are located with the respective national and European regulations. The goal of this preliminary work in the framework of Working Group 13 of the European Association for Earthquake Engineering (EAEE), is to identify potential inadequacies in the design and safety control of existing industrial facilities and to highlight the expected impact of the adoption of the new European Seismic Hazard Model on the design of new industrial facilities and the safety assessment of existing ones.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ChurilovDumovaJovanoskaButenweg2013, author = {Churilov, Sergej and Dumova-Jovanoska, Elena and Butenweg, Christoph}, title = {Seismic verification of existing masonry buildings and strengthening with reinforced concrete jackets}, series = {Proceedings - Vienna Congress on Recent Advances in Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics 2013 (VEESD 2013)}, booktitle = {Proceedings - Vienna Congress on Recent Advances in Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics 2013 (VEESD 2013)}, editor = {Adam, Christoph and Heuer, Rudolf and Lenhardt, Wolfgang and Schranz, Christian}, isbn = {978-3-902749-04-8}, year = {2013}, abstract = {A methodology for assessment, seismic verification and strengthening of existing masonry buildings is presented in this paper. The verification is performed using a calculation model calibrated with the results from ambient vibration measurements. The calibrated model serves as an input for a deformation-based verification procedure based on the Capacity Spectrum Method (CSM). The bearing capacity of the building is calculated from experimental capacity curves of the individual walls idealized with bilinear elastic-perfectly plastic curves. The experimental capacity curves were obtained from in-plane cyclic loading tests on unreinforced and strengthened masonry walls with reinforced concrete jackets. The seismic action is compared with the load-bearing capacity of the building considering non-linear material behavior with its post-peak capacity. The application of the CSM to masonry buildings and the influence of a traditional strengthening method are demonstrated on the example of a public school building in Skopje, Macedonia.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ButenwegNorda2013, author = {Butenweg, Christoph and Norda, Hannah}, title = {Nonlinear analysis of masonry structures according to Eurocode 8}, series = {Proceedings - Vienna Congress on Recent Advances in Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics 2013 (VEESD 2013)}, booktitle = {Proceedings - Vienna Congress on Recent Advances in Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics 2013 (VEESD 2013)}, editor = {Adam, Christoph and Heuer, Rudolf and Lenhardt, Wolfgang and Schranz, Christian}, isbn = {978-3-902749-04-8}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AltayButenwegKlinkel2013, author = {Altay, Okyay and Butenweg, Christoph and Klinkel, Sven}, title = {Vibration control of slender structures by semi-active tuned liquid column dampers}, series = {Conference of the ASCE Engineering Mechanics Institute , Evanston, IL , USA , EMI 2013 , 2013-08-04 - 2013-08-07}, booktitle = {Conference of the ASCE Engineering Mechanics Institute , Evanston, IL , USA , EMI 2013 , 2013-08-04 - 2013-08-07}, pages = {1 Seite}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AltayButenwegKlinkel2014, author = {Altay, Okyay and Butenweg, Christoph and Klinkel, Sven}, title = {Vibration mitigation of wind turbine towers by a new semiactive Tuned Liquid Column Damper}, series = {6.

Nevertheless, the design of industrial plants is inadequately described in recent codes and guidelines, as they do not consider the dynamic interaction between the structure and the installations and thus the effect of seismic response of the installations on the response of the structure and vice versa. The current code-based approach for the seismic design of industrial facilities is considered not enough for ensure proper safety conditions against exceptional event entailing loss of content and related consequences. Accordingly, SPIF project (Seismic Performance of Multi- Component Systems in Special Risk Industrial Facilities) was proposed within the framework of the European H2020 - SERA funding scheme (Seismology and Earthquake Engineering Research Infrastructure Alliance for Europe). The objective of the SPIF project is the investigation of the seismic behavior of a representative industrial structure equipped with complex process technology by means of shaking table tests. The test structure is a three-story moment resisting steel frame with vertical and horizontal vessels and cabinets, arranged on the three levels and connected by pipes. The dynamic behavior of the test structure and installations is investigated with and without base isolation. Furthermore, both firmly anchored and isolated components are taken into account to compare their dynamic behavior and interactions with each other. Artificial and synthetic ground motions are applied to study the seismic response at different PGA levels. After each test, dynamic identification measurements are carried out to characterize the system condition. The contribution presents the numerical simulations to calibrate the tests on the prototype, the experimental setup of the investigated structure and installations, selected measurement data and finally describes preliminary experimental results.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GoemmelFrauenrathOttenetal.2010, author = {G{\"o}mmel, Andreas and Frauenrath, Tobias and Otten, Mario and Niendorf, Thoralf and Butenweg, Christoph}, title = {In-vivo measurements of vocal fold geometry using Magnetic Resonance Imaging}, series = {Fortschritte der Akustik - DAGA 2010 36.

The proposed method is demonstrated through simulation of seepage test and partially consolidation problem. Then, implementation of the model is done by using hypoplasticity for the solid phase and analyzing the fully saturated triaxial experiments. In integration of the constitutive law error controlling is improved and comparisons done accordingly.
