Fragility assessment of building structural systems in Mid-America
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/eqe.693... [Seismic Performance] [Journal Article] 2007
Bruce R. Ellingwood, Ozan Cem Celik, Kursat Kinali
Uncertainty in response of buildings and other civil infrastructure to earthquake ground motion is due to the inherent randomness in the ground motion itself—peak intensity, time‐varying amplitude and strong‐motion duration, and frequency content—and local design and construction practices. In the recently completed SAC project and ongoing research in the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research (PEER) Center, the focus is on performance of buildings designed for regions of high seismicity. In co...
