Abstract: This paper introduces a quantitative methodology to model the way the hurricane wind vulnerability of a region’s building inventory changes over time due, for example, to aging, structural upgrading efforts, construction ...

Abstract: Current regional hurricane loss estimation models use the present-day vulnerability of the building inventory in predicting future losses and assume that it remains static throughout the time horizon of interest. In reality, ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new methodology for estimating changes in hurricane risk (annual expected economic losses) over time. A case study illustrates application of the methodology in Dare and New Hanover counties in North ...
