Seismic Fragility Assessment of Cable-Stayed Bridges Crossing Fault Rupture Zones
Buildings, 2022 Current studies lack probabilistic evaluations on the performance of fault-crossing bridges. This paper conducts seismic fragility analyses to evaluate the fragility of cable-stayed bridges with the effects of fault ruptures.

Selection of Optimal Intensity Measure for Seismic Assessment of Steel Buckling Restrained Braced Frames under Near-Fault Ground Motions [PDF]
Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2019 Buckling restrained braces (BRBs) have a similar behavior under compression and tension loadings. Therefore, they can be applied as a favorable lateral load resisting system for structures. In the performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE) framework,

Torsion Effect on the RC Structures using Fragility Curves Considering with Soil-Structure Interaction [PDF]
Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2020 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.

Intensity Measures of Consumer Preference [PDF]
Operations Research, 1980 To design successful new products and services, managers need to measure consumer preferences relative to product attributes. Many existing methods use ordinal measures. Intensity measures have the potential to provide more information per question, thus allowing more accurate models or fewer consumer questions (lower survey cost, less consumer ...

Correlation of Ground Motion Duration with Its Intensity Metrics: A Simulation Based Approach [PDF]
Journal of Soft Computing in Civil Engineering, 2020 There are different kinds of intensity measures to characterize the main properties of the earthquake records. This paper proposes a simulation-based approach to compute correlation coefficients of motion duration and intensity measures of the earthquake

Seismic performance of moment frames under multiple fling-step pulse ground motions
Jurnal Ilmiah SINERGI, 2022 The displacement fling-step pulse seldom signatures near-field earthquake in its ground motions. It is well recognized that the near-field ground motion with velocity pulse amplifies the building drift larger than the regular ground motion.

Permissible Scale Factors for Various Intensity Measures in Aftershock Ground Motion Scaling
Applied Sciences, 2023 This manuscript investigates the bias introduced by scaling aftershock ground motions when evaluating the performance of structures subjected to earthquake sequences. The study focuses on different hysteretic behaviors exhibited by structures and selects

Selection of appropriate intensity measure for collapse capacity prediction of low to mid-rise steel special moment resisting frames [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2017 A parameter that quantitatively represents the strength of a ground motion is called Intensity Measure (IM). The value of an IM for a given hazard level is the output parameter of Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) which is used in structural ...
