This paper illustrates the derivation of an empirical fragility model for residential unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings, calibrated on Italian post-earthquake damage data …
The estimation of building fragility, ie, the probability function of seismic demand exceeding a certain limit state capacity given the seismic intensity, is a common process inherent in any …
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 …
