In the past decades, the research and development of methodologies have received
considerable attention which quantified earthquake-related damages to structures. Among …

Estimation of fragility functions using dynamic structural analysis is an important step in a
number of seismic assessment procedures. This paper discusses the applicability of …

Assessing the probability of collapse is a computationally demanding component of
performance‐based earthquake engineering. This paper examines various aspects involved …

Probabilistic seismic demand analysis (PSDA) is the most time-and effort-intensive step in
risk-based assessment of the built environment. A typical PSDA requires subjecting the …

Rapid seismic vulnerability assessment tools for use with existing structures not only help in
quantifying their susceptibility to structural failure, but also aid decision makers with regional …

In the presented practice‐oriented probabilistic approach for the seismic performance
assessment of building structures, the SAC‐FEMA method, which is a part of the broader …

This paper describes a novel probabilistic fire following earthquake (FFE) framework to
develop FFE fragility functions for steel braced frames. In particular, an 8-storey steel braced …

This study is devoted to seismic performance assessment of optimally designed steel
moment frames (SMFs) in the framework of performance-based design (PBD). The …

In this paper, application of a new dynamic procedure called Endurance Time (ET) method
in seismic analysis of steel frames is explained. In this method, structures are subjected to …

Recent earthquakes have shown that Electrical Power Substations apparatuses are
seismically vulnerable. This causes to disrupt the power supply in many cases, and …
