Abstract
The mainshock-aftershock fragility surfaces incorporating mainshock intensity (IMM) and aftershock intensity (IMA) can well reflect the impact of the mainshock-aftershock sequences on the seismic performance of structures. To this end, this paper utilizes a double incremental dynamic analysis (D-IDA) approach to separately scale the mainshock and aftershock and makes use of a stepwise regression approach to generate the probabilistic mainshock-aftershock demand model. With the help of the projection approach, the fragility curves for different values of IMM and IMA and the fragility contour lines of structures can be derived. The fragility surfaces analysis framework is illustrated using a typical reinforced concrete frame structure designed conforming to the current standard in China. It is found that the seismic fragility increases with increasing IMA while the fragility is aggravated by aftershocks. Furthermore, the fragility contour lines depict that a larger IMM (or IMA) leads to a decreased IMA (or IMM) required for the same damage state, but the mainshock generally causes more damage compared to the aftershock for the same intensity.
