This study focuses on scoring, selecting, and developing physical fragility (ie, the probability
of reaching or exceeding a certain damage state given a specific hazard intensity) and/or …

Selection and scaling of ground motion records have been recognised as one of the major
sources of bias and uncertainty in the seismic assessment of civil engineering structures …

An important decision in seismic risk assessment involves a good choice of intensity
measure (IM) used to describe ground motion intensity. Depending on the structural …

Considering the complexity of the soil-structure dynamic interaction mechanism,
underground structures are restrained and influenced by the surrounding soil in …

This paper focuses on the probabilistic analysis of Intensity Measures (IM s) and
Engineering Demand Parameters (EDP s) in the context of earthquake-induced ground …

This paper develops a nonmodel-based approach for seismic loss assessment of buildings
with eccentrically braced frames (EBFs). An extensive database is utilized to predict …

The aim of this study is to incorporate the local inelastic demands of a multistory reinforced
concrete (RC) frame structure for the first time in the probabilistic seismic assessment of the …

A fuzzy decision-theoretic computational approach for selecting optimal intensity measures
(IMs) under the conditions of randomness, fuzziness and uncertainty is proposed in this …

This study conducts seismic risk assessment of highway bridges in western Canada. The
performance-based earthquake engineering (PBEE) framework is enhanced to assess the …

Abstract Intensity Measures (IMs) play a crucial role in assessing the performance of
structures. The central question is how to find an IM that represents the destructive power of …
