Underground structures are being constructed at an increasing rate in seismic prone areas,
to facilitate the expanding needs of societies. Considering the vital role of this infrastructure …

The variability of structural engineering parameters is not accounted for in available
literature on seismic vulnerability of underground frame structures. This study investigates …

Immediate damage to electricity transmission systems after strong earthquakes can
significantly cause widespread power outages and impede maintenance activities. Whereas …

Seismic intensity measures (IMs) are crucial because they are significantly connected to
earthquake hazards and structural responses. It means that selecting appropriate IMs is …

This paper proposes a new method for evaluating the seismic performance and fragility of
large underground structures. A typical underground subway station consisting of a two …

This study proposes a framework to evaluate and quantify the post-earthquake functionality
of subway systems. The effects of the seismic performance of structural and non-structural …

Seismic response and vulnerability of subway station underground structures are greatly
influenced by kinematic soil-structure interaction, which is a function of soil properties and …

To avoid the deficiency of a single failure criterion and deterministic thresholds of limit states
in seismic fragility analysis of underground structures, a method of fuzzy seismic fragility …

The present study aims to assess the seismic fragility of shield tunnels in the transverse
direction based on investigating seismic performance of segments and joints, accounting for …

Underground structures are widely constructed as the key parts of lifeline system with
synthetic functions in modern society. Simultaneously, the integration of blast-resisting …
