Development of Intrinsic Seismic Vulnerability Index (ISVI) for assessing roadway system and its assets framework [PDF]
MethodsX, 2022 تعد أنظمة الطرق وأصولها العمود الفقري لقطاع النقل وهي حيوية للازدهار الاجتماعي والاقتصادي. وبالتالي، من المهم تصميم وتطوير شبكات النقل التي يمكنها تحمل المخاطر الطبيعية مثل الزلازل. في العقود الأخيرة، حظيت البحوث المتعلقة بإدارة مخاطر الكوارث لأنظمة الطرق بالكثير من الاهتمام، لا سيما من خلال استخدام أساليب تقييم الضعف الزلزالي.

Vulnerability index and capacity spectrum based methods for urban seismic risk evaluation. A comparison [PDF]
Natural Hazards, 2008 This article contributes to the development and application of two latestgeneration methods of seismic risk analysis in urban areas. The first method, namely vulnerability index method (VIM), considers five non-null damage states, defines the action in terms of macroseismic intensity and the seismic quality of the building by means of a vulnerability ...
