“…An adequate estimate of the residual displacements becomes fundamental for determining the structural residual capacity of the building and for assessing whether the structure would collapse, or survive, during the aftershocks (Luco et al 2004) or other main shocks (Montuori et al 2021). Huge efforts have been made in recent years to identify design strategies or recentering devices (Hashemi et al 2020, Hashemi et al 2019, Khoo et al 2013, Kamperidis et al 2018, Freddi et al 2017, Baiguera et al 2016, Tzimas et al 2015, Guo et al 2022, Beiraghi and Freidoni 2021, Noureldin et al 2021, Ke et al 2021, Kharrazi and Zahrai 2020, Lian et al 2020, Song et al 2019, Chao et al 2019, Lian et al 2019 able to assure the control of the residual drift.…”
