Analytical versus observational fragilities::the case of Pettino (L’Aquila) damage data database [PDF]
, 2014 A damage data database of 131 reinforced concrete (RC) buildings, collected after 2009 L’Aquila (Italy) earthquake, is employed for the evaluation of observational fragility curves.

An investigation on vulnerability assessment of steel structures with thin steel shear wall through development of fragility curves [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2017 Fragility curves play an important role in damage assessment of buildings. Probability of damage induction to the structure against seismic events can be investigated upon generation of afore mentioned curves.

The heuristic vulnerability model: fragility curves for masonry buildings
Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2021 In the framework of seismic risk analyses at large scale, among the available methods for the vulnerability assessment the empirical and expert elicitation based ones still represent one of most widely used options.

Using full bridge model to develop analytical fragility curves for typical concrete bridge piers
Građevinar, 2018 This study shows the effect of various numerical models on the development of analytical fragility curves for bridge piers. Two distinct models are compared: model with a single degree of freedom, and the proposed full bridge model.

A proposed methodology for deriving tsunami fragility functions for buildings using optimum intensity measures [PDF]
, 2016 Tsunami fragility curves are statistical models which form a key component of tsunami risk models, as they provide a probabilistic link between a tsunami intensity measure (TIM) and building damage. Existing studies apply different TIMs (e.g.

Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of Corruagted Steel Shear Walls Using Fragility Curves [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2019 Structural damages and subsequently considerable economic losses that ever made in catastrophic seismic events caused reaserchers and codes gradually move from prescriptive design to performance-based design.
