Seismic fragility analysis of subway station structures considering statistical uncertainty of seismic demands

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
To avoid the epistemic uncertainty for seismic fragility of subway station structures caused by the incomplete seismic demand sample set, a novel procedure of seismic fragility analysis of subway station structures considering the statistical uncertainty

Seismic Fragility Analysis of Buildings Based on Double-Parameter Damage Models considering Soil-Structure Interaction

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Most conventional seismic fragility analyses of RC buildings usually ignore or greatly simplify the soil-structure interaction (SSI), and the maximum interstory drift ratio (MIDR) is often adopted to establish seismic fragility curves.

Seismic Meta‐Fragility Functions

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics
ABSTRACT Fragility functions make for one of the three key components of probabilistic seismic risk analysis, along with hazard and consequence and/or exposure models. They are, in principle, construction‐specific; however, risk analysis is more often performed on a larger (e.g., regional) scale.

Assessing the impact of ground-motion variability and uncertainty on empirical fragility curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
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.

Multidimensional seismic fragility analysis of subway station structures using the adaptive bandwidth kernel density estimation and Copula function

open access: yesUnderground Space
Structural damages during an earthquake are typically controlled by seismic demands, which are represented by the combination of amplitude of ground motion and cyclic load effects.

Seismic fragility analysis of pile-supported wharf in nearshore liquefiable ground

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2021
The seismic fragility analysis has become a research hotspot in structural engineering and bridge engineering, but there are few studies in the field of pile-supported wharf in nearshore liquefiable ground.

Fragility Fractures: Risk Factors and Management in the Elderly. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Given the progressive ageing of Western populations, the fragility fractures market has a growing socioeconomic impact. Fragility fractures are common in the elderly, negatively impacting their quality of life, limiting autonomy, increasing disability ...

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,
