Global collapse in earthquake engineering refers to the inability of a structural system to
sustain gravity loads in the presence of seismic effects. This research proposes a …

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

This paper summarizes collapse performance measures and the probabilistic basis for their
development to assist in understanding of collapse behaviour of buildings and …

One of the challenges of assessing structural collapse performance is the appropriate
selection of ground motions for use in the nonlinear dynamic collapse simulation. The …

The collapse capacity of earthquake‐excited inelastic nondeteriorating SDOF systems,
which are vulnerable to the destabilizing effect of gravity loads (P‐delta effect), is evaluated …

This paper illustrates a probabilistic‐based methodology for quantifying the collapse
potential of structural systems, which can provide us with more accurate estimates of losses …

The collapses of building structures during recent earthquakes have raised many questions
regarding the adequacy of current seismic provisions to prevent a partial or total collapse …

Life safety and collapse prevention have always been primary goals of earthquake
engineering. Although the collapse risk of structures has not been explicitly quantified until …

ABSTRACT A method to evaluate the seismic collapse performance of frame structures is
presented, considering uncertainties in both the ground motion hazard and inelastic …

The primary objective of this research is to advance, through analytical and experimental
research, knowledge on collapse assessment of structural systems. The focus is on …
