Abstract: In performance-based earthquake engineering framework, seismic fragility functions play a fundamental role for quantifying the seismic resilience. There are three main approaches for performing the seismic fragility analysis: ...

Abstract: Hydrodynamic effects are concerns in the seismic analysis of bridges with complex hollow piers submerged in a reservoir. In this study, potential-based fluid elements were employed to set up a three-dimensional numerical ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a uniform design (UD)-based Gaussian process regression (GPR) method for rapid damage assessment and fragility estimates of bridges. The core idea of the proposed method is that the GPR model was adopted ...
