Selection of Ground Motion Intensity Measures in Fragility Analysis of a Mega-Scale Steel Frame Structure at Separate Limit States: A Case Study

Buildings, 2022
Selecting an appropriate ground motion intensity measure (IM) to estimate the aleatory uncertainty produced by ground motion variability is the first and crucial step in fragility analysis. The choice of IM is influenced not only by the structural system

Shear Fragility Analysis of Non-Classically Damped Three-Dimensional Structures Under Seismic Excitation

Buildings
This study proposes a seismic performance evaluation method for structures using the base shear index to calculate the collapse probability. After non-proportional damping was applied to the three-dimensional bar system model, the structural dynamic ...

Seismic Fragility Analysis of Bridge Pier

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract Bridges are classified as lifeline structures as they need to be functional in an earthquake event. The performance-based analysis of the existing bridges is important for the stakeholders. Information on seismic performance in terms of fragility of existing bridges in the country can provide valuable information to the decision-

Clinical Course and Impact of Breaks in Therapy for Children With Relapsed/Refractory Solid Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pediatric relapsed or refractory (R/R) solid tumors carry a dismal prognosis, and postrelapse patient experiences are not well described. We present postrelapse outcomes, including number of R/R events and subsequent therapy regimens.

Graphic Analysis of Osmotic Fragility of Erythrocytes

The Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1976
A precise and highly reproducible method for analyzing the osmotic fragility of erythrocytes with a minute amount of blood (less than 10 mul) is described. The osmotic fragility curves are recorded with a coil planet centrifuge with accessories and a scanning photodensitometer.

Criterion‐Related Validity of the Neuropsychological Quick Assessment for Screening Cognitive, Motor, and Behavioral Impairments in Patients With Pediatric Brain Tumors: An Observational Pilot Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuropsychological complications may impair the qualitative prognosis of patients with pediatric brain tumors. However, multifaceted evaluations cannot be conducted in all patients because they are time consuming and burdensome for patients.

Equilibrium Analysis, Banking, Contagion and Financial Fragility [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2003
In this paper a general equilibrium model of an economy with incomplete markets (GEI) with money and default is examined. The model is a simplified version of the real world consisting of a non-bank private sector, banks, a central bank, a government and a regulator.
