The selection of optimal intensity measures (IMs) has been recommended for generating the seismic demand models with different probabilities by researchers since the seismic IMs are closely associated with earthquake risks and structural safety. However,

Methodology for the development of bridge‐specific fragility curves [PDF]
SummaryA new methodology for the development of bridge‐specific fragility curves is proposed with a view to improving the reliability of loss assessment in road networks and prioritising retrofit of the bridge stock. The key features of the proposed methodology are the explicit definition of critical limit state thresholds for individual bridge ...

An approach to derive seismic fragility curves [PDF]
Abstract Seismic risk assessment is needed for the evaluation of disaster management, emergency preparedness and prior retrofitting. Based on feasible collapse mechanisms and calculation of their associated seismic parameter Peak Ground Displacement, the failure analysis of the structure is identified.

Torsion Effect on the RC Structures using Fragility Curves Considering with Soil-Structure Interaction [PDF]
The existence of torsion, as well as consideration of the Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI), increase the natural periods of the structure resulting from a subsequent decrease in the seismic demand of the system.

A note on families of fragility curves—is the composite curve equivalent to the mean curve? [PDF]
Abstract This paper gives a rigorous proof of something that has been assumed intuitively by workers in seismic PRA; namely, that the ‘mean curve’ of a family of lognormal fragility curves is equal to the so-called ‘composite’ curve. This equality is shown to be equivalent to, and to result from, an obscure but interesting identity property of the ...
