Applied Sciences, 2023 To comprehensively evaluate the seismic performance of offshore bridges, a seismic risk analysis of an example bridge was developed based on improved two-dimensional (2D) seismic fragility analysis. Taking a simply-supported beam bridge in an offshore tidal environment as an example, the adverse effects of chloride ion erosion are considered and the ...

Influence of spiral anchor composite foundation on seismic vulnerability of raw soil structure
Earthquake Research Advances, 2022 A typical single-layer raw soil structure in villages and towns in China is taken as the research object. In the probabilistic seismic demand analysis, the seismic demand model is obtained by the incremental dynamic time history analysis method.

Feasibility of using neural networks to obtain simplified capacity curves for seismic assessment [PDF]
, 2018 The selection of a given method for the seismic vulnerability assessment of buildings is mostly dependent on the scale of the analysis. Results obtained in large-scale studies are usually less accurate than the ones obtained in small-scale studies.

An observational analysis of seismic vulnerability of industrial pipelines
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2012 Industrial plants are complex systems that need stringent requirement for structural safety, as large amount of toxic and flammable materials are often handled and consequences of failures can affect wide surrounding areas. Prediction and prevention of possible accidental scenarios, triggered by the interaction of natural hazard such as earthquakes ...

Seismic Vulnerability of Existing Masonry Buildings: Nonlinear Parametric Analysis [PDF]
, 2015 Existing masonry structures are usually associated to a high seismic vulnerability, mainly due to the properties of the materials, weak connections between floors and load-bearing walls, high mass of the masonry walls and flexibility of the floors. For these reasons, the seismic performance of existing masonry structures has received much attention in ...

Simplified Estimation of Economic Seismic Risk for Buildings [PDF]
, 2004 A seismic risk assessment is often performed on behalf of a buyer of commercial buildings in seismically active regions. One outcome of the assessment is that a probable maximum loss (PML) is computed.
