Abstract

Disaster prevention and mitigation for civil engineering structures is an important research field. It involves disaster field forming mechanism, disaster dynamic responses and collapse analysis, disaster prevention and mitigation strategies, and so on. The recent researches and applications on disaster prevention and mitigation in civil engineering are commented, especially for the new researches published in Science China.
