Vulnerability index and capacity spectrum based methods for urban seismic risk evaluation. A comparison [PDF]

open access: yesNatural 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 ...
