4 days ago · The EMS-98 has 12 divisions, and each division describes distinct observations or damage patterns due to the earthquake intensity (Table 1). For assigning intensity values higher than V, as per the EMS-98 scale, detailed field reconnaissance observations gathered using strict data collection protocols are required (Contreras et al. 2021). The ...

Introduction Performance-based earthquake engineering involves four stages: hazard analysis, structural analysis, damage analysis and loss analysis. The utilization of IMs as a link
6 days ago · This paper utilizes 10 IMs to quantify the potential for structural damage. The selected IMs cover a wide range of earthquake characteristics with respect to the peak intensities, mean-square intensities, the spectral intensity and the potential destructiveness, incorporating the frequency content of ground motions.
1 day ago · For instance, increasing the earthquake intensity (Sa(0.5)), span length (L), and deck area (A) will increase the damage state exceedance probabilities of all bridge components, as more inertial loads are developed in the bridge system.

4 days ago · The key principle of the damage-control-oriented design approach is to reduce the probability of earthquake damage to structural components by limiting the component deformation demands. This approach will provide higher confidence that the building can continue to be occupied following design-level events.
6 days ago · The primary motivation of this study is to develop a compound intensity measure (IM) to evaluate ground motion damage potential based on principal component analysis (PCA) and canonical ...
