Fragility Curve Analysis of Medium Cable Stayed Bridge
The seismic performance of a bridge can be shown by analyzing the vulnerability of the structure in resisting an earthquake motion and then developing into fragility curves. This study presents a convenient method to establish the fragility curve for the

Development of fragility curves for railway embankment and ballast scour due to overtopping flood flow [PDF]
Fragility curves evaluating a risk of railway embankment fill and track ballast scour were developed. To develop fragility curves, two well-documented events of single-track railway washout during floods in Japan were investigated.
