SEISMIC FRAGILITY ASSESSMENT OF MEDICAL COMPONENTS
Proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering (COMPDYN 2015), 2015Shake table tests on a full scale three-dimensional model of a consultation room has been carried out at the University of Naples, Federico II ,Italy . The sample room con-tains a number of typical medical components, which are either directly connected to the panel boards of the perimeter walls or are simple free-standing elements.

Seismic Fragility Analysis of Structural Systems
Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 2006A method is presented for the evaluation of the seismic fragility function of realistic structural systems. The method is based on a preliminary, limited, simulation involving nonlinear dynamic analyses performed to establish the probabilistic characterization of the demands on the structure, followed by the solution of a general system reliability ...

Fragility Analysis and Seismic Record Selection
Journal of Structural Engineering, 2011This paper explores the influence of spectrum-matched and amplitude-scaled ground motions on the development of fragility functions for structures. The quantification of the influence of these two types of ensembles on ground motions in predicting demands of structural and nonstructural systems is addressed.

Seismic Fragility Assessment of Steel Industrial Storage Tanks
Volume 5: Operations, Applications, and Components; Seismic Engineering; ASME Nondestructive Evaluation, Diagnosis and Prognosis (NDPD) Division, 2022Abstract Storage tanks represent one of the most critical components in industrial facilities and building plants, when considering the occurrence of seismic events. The release of dangerous materials, due to their collapse, can be a safety issue in terms of both human life and environmental impact.

Seismic fragility analysis for non-seismically qualified steel structure
Reliability Engineering & System Safety, 1998Abstract The cooling water (C/W) pumphouse of CANDU nuclear power plants is non-safety related and is only designed to meet the seismic requirements of the National Building Code of Canada (NBCC) for normal industrial plants and public buildings. Based on a feasibility study for CANDU seismic Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA), it was decided to ...

Unbiased simplified seismic fragility estimation of non-ductile infilled RC structures
Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2022Infilled reinforced concrete (RC) buildings represent a prevalent taxonomy class in the Mediterranean region. Many were constructed before proper seismic provisions and detailing were enforced meaning they typically possess non-ductile failure mechanisms.

Seismic Fragility of Suspended Ceiling Systems
Earthquake Spectra, 2007Full-scale dynamic testing of suspended ceiling systems was performed to obtain fragility data suitable for performance-based assessment and design. On the basis of the fragility data derived from testing, (1) the use of retainer clips improves the performance of ceiling systems in terms of loss of tiles, (2) including recycled cross tees in the ...
