SEISMIC FRAGILITY ANALYSIS OF STEEL STORAGE TANKS
Earthquakes can cause significant damages to industrial liquid storage tanks resulting in losses of functionality, fires or environmental contamination due to the leakage of hazardous chemicals. Typical damages of ground supported tanks during past earthquakes were in the form of cracking at the corner of the bottom plate and compression buckling of ...

Analysis of fragility levels of fragile five in terms of exchange rates
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 ...

Influence of ground motion duration on seismic fragility of base isolated NPP structures
This study investigates the influence of earthquake duration on seismic fragility of base isolated nuclear power plant (NPP) structures. Two groups of ground motions are employed in performing time history analyses, in which short duration (SD) and long ...

Seismic Performance Target and Fragility of Masonry Infilled RC Frames under In-Plane Loading
Masonry infilled RC frames are one of the most common structural forms, the damage of which, in earthquake events, usually cause serious losses. The determination of the seismic performance target is the key foundation of performance-based seismic ...

Exploratory Factor Analysis MSMEs Anti-Fragile
Developing a framework for MSMEs to become more fragile is the goal of this research. As it is known that the business world has fluctuated a lot and is facing turbulence, so we need an anti-fragile MSME framework concept. Using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), this research is then analyzed to produce 5 (five) factors that build an anti-fragile MSME

Fragility Analysis of Gantry Crane Subjected to Near-Field Ground Motions
A gantry crane located in a near-field earthquake-prone area is selected in this paper as an example, and the nonlinear finite element (FE) model is used considering the material nonlinearity including plastic hinges and the second order (P − Δ ...
