Analysis of Seismic Vulnerability - Case of Buildings of High Seismic Hazard

Advanced Materials Research, 2014
Seismic vulnerability of an urban environment is characterized by the ability of buildings and structures to support seismic events (physical vulnerability) and by the ability of people to behave in a consistent and rational face a major event (social vulnerability).

Vulnerability Analysis and Seismic Retrofit of a Strategic Building

Journal of Performance of Constructed Facilities, 2017
AbstractThe seismic vulnerability analysis of a strategic building is presented in this paper. A refined finite-element model was set up on the basis of available experimental results, and updated on the basis of new experimental analyses on materials and structure.

Seismic vulnerability analysis of a complex interconnected civil infrastructure

2013
This chapter presents a computational framework for probabilistic seismic performance assessment of the network of interdependent infrastructural systems that supports the functions of our society. An increasing number of large-scale failures (effects), initiated by relatively small natural or man-made disturbances (causes), have brought unforeseen ...

Seismic Performance and Vulnerability Analysis of High Voltage Capacitor

2021 Power System and Green Energy Conference (PSGEC), 2021
Capacitors are basic components used in filter loops of high voltage substations. However, in recent earthquake events, capacitors have proved to be vulnerable for their significant mass, high center of gravity and fragility of ceramic insulators. To comprehensively analyze seismic performance and vulnerability, a sophisticated finite element model of ...

Empirical seismic vulnerability analysis of infrastructure systems in Nepal

Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2021
Infrastructure systems are one of the most important attributes of modern society. Earthquake induced damage to infrastructure not only results in economic losses, but also secondary effects caused by their loss of function. Proper understanding of seismic vulnerability of critical infrastructure is therefore essential for disaster risk reduction.
