A seismic fragility curve is a visual representation that illustrates the likelihood of structure surpassing particular damage or performance limit state caused by an earthquake with specific intensity ground motion level. This typically generated using probabilistic hazard analysis and structural reliability methods. It based on statistical models rely past data simulations future scenarios to...

Seismic resilience is the residual capacity of a damaged system for recovering and sustaining an acceptable level performance as consequence seismic event. Firstly, this paper summarizes current calculation framework using fragility analyses. After that, new metric based on vulnerability analyses developed to calculate resilience. Finally, typical hospital building adopted single then retrofitt...

The basic function of a gas distribution system, essentially composed of buried pipelines, reduction stations, and demand nodes, is to deliver gas from sources to end users. The objective of the article is to discuss the evaluation of seismic risk of gas networks in compliance with the performance-based earthquake engineering framework adapted to spatially distributed systems. In particular, th...

Abstract School buildings being a critical social infrastructure, assessment of their seismic behaviour is utmost importance in ensuring safe schooling facilities locations high seismicity. This study presents two important aspects analysing any existing building stock for behaviour: the development an appropriate taxonomy system and analytical method to conduct fragility assessment. A detailed...

The cross-laminated timber coupled wall (CLT-CW) system, a recently proposed timber-based structural has limited understanding of its seismic performance. existing research in probabilistic fragility assessment (PSFA) CLT buildings reveals gap, particularly regarding comprehensive evaluation CLT-CW systems and the impact various design parameters. To fully describe state post-earthquake perform...

Bu çalışmada, küresel tanklar için zaman tanım alanında doğrusal olmayan analizler gerçekleştirilerek elde edilen sonuçlar ile geçmiş depremlerde gözlemlenen hasar verileri birleştirilerek kırılganlık eğrileri oluşturulmuştur. Ayrıca yatay silindirik tankların de derlenmiştir. araştırmalar sonucunda ve basınçlı ilgili depremlerden gözleme dayalı verilerinin atmosferik tanklara göre oldukça az s...

A seismic fragility assessment methodology is presented for equipment-supporting reinforced concrete and steel buildings that are typically encountered in oil refineries. Using a suite of hazard-consistent ground motions reduced-order models, incremental dynamic analysis performed to obtain the demand structural systems examined. Appropriate drift- floor acceleration-sensitive failure modes con...
