Statistical Analysis of Fragility Curves [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 2000 This paper presents a statistical analysis of structural fragility curves. Both empirical and analytical fragility curves are considered. The empirical fragility curves are developed utilizing bridge damage data obtained from the 1995 Hyogo-ken Nanbu (Kobe) earthquake.

Analysis of fragility levels of fragile five in terms of exchange rates
Pressacademia, 2017 This paper analyzes the structural breaks and times of “Fragile Five” currencies’ against USD Dollar. Thus study tries to find the consistency of “Fragile Five” via structural break unit root test over currencies. Paper analyzes the structural breaks under two parts which contain Jan 2010- June 2013 and July 2013-Dec 2016 by taking weekly closing ...

Vitrification of octonary perylene mixtures with ultralow fragility [PDF]
, 2021 Strong glass formers with a low fragility are highly sought-after because of the technological importance of vitrification. In the case of organic molecules and polymers, the lowest fragility values have been reported for single-component materials. Here,

The Fragility of Sensitivity Analysis: An Encompassing Perspective* [PDF]
Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, 2008 AbstractRobustness and fragility in Leamer's sense are defined with respect to a particular coefficient over a class of models. This paper shows that inclusion of the data generation process in that class of models is neither necessary nor sufficient for robustness.

Seismic Fragility Assessment of Cable-Stayed Bridges Crossing Fault Rupture Zones
Buildings, 2022 Current studies lack probabilistic evaluations on the performance of fault-crossing bridges. This paper conducts seismic fragility analyses to evaluate the fragility of cable-stayed bridges with the effects of fault ruptures.

Seismic Retrofit of Vulnerable Steel Frames Using Articulated Quadrilateral bracing system [PDF]
Numerical Methods in Civil Engineering, 2019 This paper investigates the applicabilty of an innovative bracing, called Articulated Quadrilateral (AQ) bracing system, which uses shape memory alloys (SMAs), for retroffiting low-rise to high-rise vulnerable SMFRs against strong ground motions.
