Seismic Loss Assessment and Mitigation of Critical Urban Infrastructure Systems
This study develops an approach for estimating seismic performance of complex critical urban infrastructures and optimizing seismic retrofit of infrastructure systems based on system-level performance under the constraint of finite resources. First, postearthquake system performance of …

Seismic loss assessment of sequential rupture of New Madrid Seismic Zone on the Central US
The New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ) is described as a low probability high risk event. In case of a repetition of the 1811-1812 earthquake series, the expected consequences will cause catastrophic impacts to directly affected areas and beyond. An accurate earthquake impact assessment of the NMSZ is …

Simulation-based fragility relationships for unreinforced masonry buildings
… in the 8-state region impacted by the New-Madrid Seismic Zone and an even greater portion of the building stock in most other regions of the world. In addition to significant population, the brittle nature of URM buildings further supports a thorough consideration of seismic response given the …
