A Method for the Analysis of Seismic Reliability of Lifeline Systems
Methods for assessing the seismic safety of a lifeline system, such as a water distribution system, an oil pipeline system, or a transportation network, are developed and introduced; with part of the study being devoted to the development of a relation between the earthquake intensity and the …

A three-dimensional analytical study of spatial variability of seismic ground motions
… is necessary for the analysis and design of lifeline systems. An analytical model for wave propagating through a three-dimensional half-space is first proposed to evaluate the ground responses. The incoherent slip over a fault plane is then represented by an autocorrelation function of the …

Seismic Response and Analytical Fragility Functions for Curved Concrete Box-Girder Bridges
… through Seismic Risk Assessment (SRA) of lifeline systems. Thus, seismic fragility curves are essential input to SRA to estimate damage to highway bridges and consequently to the network. The literature review shows shortcomings in fragility studies on the effect of horizontal curvature of …
