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

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
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.

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

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
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.

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
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]
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 ...
