Abstract Considerable three-dimensional (3D) effects are involved in the seismic
performance of pile-supported wharves. Such effects include the pile-to-pile interaction …

Highlights•Seismic vulnerability assessment of an idealized pile-supported wharf is
assessed.•Analytical fragility curves are developed for the wharf under study.•Incremental …

Many existing pile-supported marginal wharves within ports along the West Coast of the
United States were designed in the late 1960s and early 1970s using the seismic design …

Pile-supported wharves, as one of the main components in marine harbor systems, are
subjected to multiple hazards such as earthquakes and corrosion during their lifetime. In this …

Seismic performance evaluation of wharf structures constitutes the core of the vulnerability
assessment of seaport infrastructure exposed to seismic events. Because this performance …

Serving as critical gateways for international trade, seaports are pivotal elements in
transportation networks. Any disruption in the activities of port infrastructures may lead to …

In this study, the seismic vulnerability of a pile-supported wharf is assessed. Due to common
lack of empirical data, the analytical fragility curves are developed using the results of the …

This is a pushover analysis for pile‐supported wharves considering the dynamic
magnification factors due to torsional effects. The piles seismic design by deterministic …

This report summarizes the main achievements and results of the work carried out within the
European collaborative research project SYNER-G. SYNER-G developed an innovative …

Crane, an important platform to carry and move cargo in the ports, can evidently affect the
overall response of pile-supported wharf system. In many earlier analytical studies, the …
