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 ...

PDF interpolation technique for seismic fragility analysis of bridges
Engineering Structures, 2007 This study presents a probability density function (PDF) interpolation technique for the evaluation of seismic fragility curves as a function of the return period. Seismic fragility curves have been developed in terms of various seismic intensities, such

Seismic fragility analysis of 3D structures
Structural Safety, 2004A statistical approach for time-variant system reliability problems is developed and investigated. The basic proposal is to use a response surface, characterised by a statistical model of the mixed type, to represent the capacity in an analytical limit-state function.

Use of HDMR metamodel for seismic fragility analysis
, 2011 ndustrial (FEM-) models used for seismic vulnerability analysis contain generally an important number of DOFs and are computationally intensive since complex damage models and failure modes have to be considered.

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 ...

Seismic fragility analysis of traditional himis structures in Turkey
Structures, 2022It is extremely important to better understand the behavior of existing buildings against earthquakes, to reduce the damage that may occur in these structures in future earthquakes, and to repair and strengthen them when necessary. Studies on the earthquake behavior of traditional Himis structures, which constitute a large part of the historical urban ...

SEISMIC FRAGILITY ANALYSIS OF FRAME STRUCTURES
International Journal of Structural Stability and Dynamics, 2008A seismic fragility analysis of structures is essential to prediction of the building behavior that is likely to occur during earthquakes. Normally, the probability of failure of a structure over a specified period of time is obtained through a convolution of the fragility curve with the seismic hazard curve for the structure site.

Seismic Fragility Analysis of SRC Frame Structures
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2012With the rapid development and extensive application of SRC (steel reinforced concrete) frame structures, the study on seismic fragility of SRC structure under earthquakes seems rather important. The seismic fragility of the SRC frame structures is studied by the method of Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA) in this paper.

Seismic Fragility Analysis of a Water Storage Structure
12th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering, Volume 2, 2004The present paper is concerned with the seismic response and fragility evaluation of a water storage structure. Seismic analysis has been carried out considering the hydrodynamic effects of the contained water. The various parameters that could affect the seismic structural response include material strength of concrete, structural damping available ...
