Raimondo Betti specializes in the areas of structural dynamics
and earthquake engineering with particular emphasis on the
analysis of dynamic soil-structure interation effects for
horizontally extended structures. His research interests include
the dynamic response of embedded foundations to earthquake
excitation, analysis and determination of Green's functions
for homogeneous and layered semi-infinite domains, effects
of the spatial variation of ground motion on the seismic response
of bridges, active, passive and hybrid control systems for
the vibration control of structures subjected to earthquake
and/or wind excitation, and damage detection for bridges using
data correlation analysis. He is a member of the Earthquake
Engineering Research Institute, the American Society of Civil
Engineers, and Sigma Xi.
