Fragility Curves and Probabilistic Seismic Demand Models on the Seismic Assessment of RC Frames Subjected to Structural Pounding

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
This study aims to evaluate five different methodologies reported in the literature for developing fragility curves to assess the seismic performance of RC structures subjected to structural pounding.

Order Matters: The Benefits of Ordinal Fragility Curves for Damage and Loss Estimation. [PDF]

open access: yesRisk Anal, 2022
Probabilistic loss assessments from natural hazards require the quantification of structural vulnerability. Building damage data can be used to estimate fragility curves to obtain realistic descriptions of the relationship between a hazard intensity ...

A Comprehensive Review and Comparison of the Fragility Curves Used for Resilience Assessments in Power Systems

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
Over the years, power systems have been severely affected by extreme events. This situation has worsened given that climate change has proven to exacerbate their frequency and magnitude.

Fragility curves of masonry buildings in aggregate accounting for local mechanisms and site effects

open access: yesBulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2023
The seismic evaluation of masonry buildings in aggregate, largely diffused within the existing Italian and European building stock, represents a difficult and open task that has not been exhaustively investigated so far.

Seismic fragility curves for the Italian RC residential buildings based on non-linear dynamic analyses

open access: yesBulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2022
In the present paper, Fragility Curves (FCs) of Reinforced Concrete (RC) building types with moment-resisting frame structure representative of the existing Italian building stock have been derived through an analytical approach. The proposed methodology

Fragility curves of Italian school buildings: derivation from L’Aquila 2009 earthquake damage via observational and heuristic approaches

open access: yesBulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2022
Recent seismic events worldwide have demonstrated the high vulnerability of existing school buildings and the urgent need to have reliable tools for the rapid seismic performance assessment and damage and loss quantification.

Census-based typological usability fragility curves for Italian unreinforced masonry buildings

open access: yesBulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2022
The main vulnerability models available in the literature aim to develop damage fragility curves to estimate the damage level suffered by a building after a seismic event.

Seismic vulnerability assessment of minor Italian urban centres: development of urban fragility curves

open access: yesBulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2022
This paper presents a novel hybrid-based methodology devoted to develop urban fragility curves and damage probability matrices to predict likelihood seismic damage scenarios for small and medium Italian urban centres, considering URM buildings only.

Fragility curves for Italian URM buildings based on a hybrid method

open access: yesBulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2021
A hybrid seismic fragility model for territorial-scale seismic vulnerability assessment of masonry buildings is developed and presented in this paper. The method combines expert-judgment and mechanical approaches to derive typological fragility curves ...

Bridge-specific fragility analysis: when is it really necessary? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In seismic assessment of bridges the research focus has recently shifted on the derivation of bridge-specific fragility curves that account for the effect of different geometry, structural system, component and soil properties, on the seismic behaviour ...
