Seismic fragility analysis of two-story and three-span metro station structures based on IDA method
Based on the non-linear soil-structure interaction model for a two-storey and three-span metro station in a typical underground engineering site, an IDA (incremental dynamic analysis)-based structural seismic fragility analysis method is introduced for ...

Seismic Fragility Analysis of Bridge System Based on Fuzzy Failure Criteria
In the traditional bridge seismic fragility analysis, the criterion for judging the structural damage state is clear. That is to say, when the damage index exceeds a specific value, the structure is judged to enter the new damage state.

Adaptive artificial neural networks for seismic fragility analysis [PDF]
In seismic probabilistic risk assessment, fragility curves are used to estimate the probability of failure of a structure or its critical components at given values of seismic intensity measures, e.g. the peak ground acceleration. However, the computation of the fragility curves requires a large number of time-consuming mechanical simulations with the ...

An earthquake-source-based metric for seismic fragility analysis [PDF]
The seismic fragility of a system is the probability that the system enters a damage state under seismic ground motions with specified characteristics.

An approach to derive seismic fragility curves [PDF]
Abstract Seismic risk assessment is needed for the evaluation of disaster management, emergency preparedness and prior retrofitting. Based on feasible collapse mechanisms and calculation of their associated seismic parameter Peak Ground Displacement, the failure analysis of the structure is identified.

Assessing the impact of ground-motion variability and uncertainty on empirical fragility curves [PDF]
Empirical fragility curves, constructed from databases of thousands of building-damage observations, are commonly used for earthquake risk assessments, particularly in Europe and Japan, where building stocks are often difficult to model analytically (e.g.
