Seismic Fragility of Italian Code-Conforming Buildings by Multi-Stripe Dynamic Analysis of Three-Dimensional Structural Models

Journal of earthquake engineering, 2023
The RINTC (2015–2017) project was a three-year research program aimed at assessing the seismic reliability of code-conforming structures in Italy. It dealt with five structural typologies of residential and industrial buildings: reinforced concrete ...

Seismic fragility estimation considering field inspection of reinforced concrete girder bridges

Structure and Infrastructure Engineering, 2023
To study the seismic loss properties and performance of reinforced concrete (RC) girder bridge structures, the seismic damage experienced by RC girder bridges during the Wenchuan earthquake in China on May 12, 2008, was investigated and studied.

Estimation uncertainty for some common seismic fragility curve fitting methods

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2022
This technical note illustrates and makes available some simple procedures to assess the estimation uncertainty for the parameters of seismic fragility curves. The considered fragility fitting methods refer to the lognormal assumption and are supposed to

Effect of ground motion characteristics on seismic fragility of subway station

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2021
Seismic fragility analysis of structure is fundamental in performance-based seismic design. The ground motion record set used in the analysis may have a characteristic effect on the fragility curves of a subway station structure. In this paper, fragility

Enhanced endurance-time-method (EETM) for efficient seismic fragility, risk and resilience assessment of structures

, 2021
Quantifying the seismic fragility, risk, and resilience of structures is a computationally demanding step in the performance-based earthquake engineering framework as it commonly requires a large number of nonlinear dynamic analyses.

Seismic fragility evaluation of semi-rigid frames subjected to near-field earthquakes

, 2021
The studies on the seismic fragility evaluation of semi-rigid (SR) steel moment frames are meager in the existing literature. The purpose of the present numerical study is to investigate the seismic fragility of SR frames subjected to near-field ...

Seismic fragility analysis of railway reinforced concrete bridges considering real‐time vehicle‐bridge interaction with the aid of co‐simulation techniques

Earthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2022
Based on past earthquake events, bridges are the most critical and most vulnerable component of road and rail transport systems, while bridge damage is related to substantial direct and indirect losses.
