Gaussian process regression for seismic fragility assessment of building portfolios
Seismic fragility assessment of building portfolios is often based on the analysis of “average”
building models representative of structural types (or building classes), thus neglecting …

Simplicity versus accuracy trade-off in estimating seismic fragility of existing reinforced concrete buildings
This paper investigates the trade-off between simplicity (modelling effort and computational
time) and result accuracy in seismic fragility analysis of reinforced concrete (RC) frames. For …
