Seismic Vulnerability of lifelines

, 2022
Abstract The North of Algeria is located in a seismic zone, then earthquakes are probably the most likely natural disaster that would lead to major lifeline disruption. The adequate operation of lifelines is vital for the economic development of regions under moderate to high seismic activity.

Seismic Sequence Vulnerability of Low-Rise Special Moment-Resisting Frame Buildings with Brick Infills

Applied Sciences, 2022
When buildings are exposed to earthquake sequence, damage aggravation is expected to occur. Although several studies report seismic vulnerability of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings under the mainshock–aftershock sequence, indicating damage aggravation

Seismic vulnerability of a slope in central Italy [PDF]

WIT Transactions on the Built Environment, 2009
This study has regarded the evaluation of site effects for seismic vulnerability in correspondence of a site in San Giuliano di Puglia (Italy), located in the Molise Region in Southern Italy, which is prone to high seismic risk. On October 31, 2002, a ML = 5.4 earthquake struck the Molise region in Southern Italy.
