Flood fragility analysis of instream bridges

Sensors and Smart Structures Technologies for Civil, Mechanical, and Aerospace Systems 2018, 2018
Flood scour is one of the major causes of bridge failures in the United States. Flood fragility curves can be used as an objective tool to assess the risk of a bridge to exceed some limit-states for a given flood. Despite the method’s extensive use in seismic reliability analysis for civil infrastructures, the approach has rarely been utilized in ...

Polymerase chain reaction analysis of fragile X mutations

Human Genetics, 1992
The mutation that underlies the fragile X syndrome is presumed to be a large expansion in the number of CGG repeats within the gene FMR-1. The unusually GC-rich composition of the expanded region has impeded attempts to amplify it by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

Fragility Analysis for the Bridge Control Benchmark Problem

Civil-Comp Proceedings, 2009
This study evaluates the fragility curves of a cable stayed bridge using Monte Carlo simulations. The presentation of the vulnerability information in the form of fragility curves is a widely practiced approach when several uncertain sources are involved.

SEISMIC FRAGILITY ANALYSIS OF FRAME STRUCTURES

International Journal of Structural Stability and Dynamics, 2008
A seismic fragility analysis of structures is essential to prediction of the building behavior that is likely to occur during earthquakes. Normally, the probability of failure of a structure over a specified period of time is obtained through a convolution of the fragility curve with the seismic hazard curve for the structure site.
