Feasibility of using neural networks to obtain simplified capacity curves for seismic assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The selection of a given method for the seismic vulnerability assessment of buildings is mostly dependent on the scale of the analysis. Results obtained in large-scale studies are usually less accurate than the ones obtained in small-scale studies.

Seismic fragility evaluation of the base-isolated nuclear power plant piping system using the failure criterion based on stress-strain

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2019
In the design criterion for the nuclear power plant piping system, the limit state of the piping against an earthquake is assumed to be plastic collapse. The failure of a common piping system, however, means the leakage caused by the cracks.

Integrated Seismic Risk Assessment in Nepal [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022
Abstract. As Nepal is at high risk of earthquakes, the district-wide (VDC/Municipality level) study has been performed for vulnerability assessment of seismic-hazard, and the hazard-risk study is incorporated with social conditions as it has become a crucial issue in recent years.
