A Markovian framework for multi-hazard life-cycle consequence analysis of deteriorating structural systems
Iannacone, Leandro; ICASP14; Galasso, Carmine; Gentile, Roberto; Otárola, Kenneth (2023)Multiple-hazard (or simply multi-hazard) interactions are either disregarded or addressed inadequately in most existing computational risk modelling frameworks for natural hazards, leading to inaccurate life-cycle consequence ... -
Advancements and challenges in direct loss-based seismic design
Gentile, Roberto; ICASP14 (2023)Provisions in seismic design codes generally focus on collapse prevention or life safety for major, rare earthquakes while damage prevention for minor, frequent ones. The evolution of theoretical knowledge, modelling ... -
Assessing Environmental Impact of Earthquake-Induced Damage for an Italian Case-study Building
Aljawhari, Karim; Galasso, Carmine; ICASP14; Gentile, Roberto (2023)This study assesses environmental impacts due to the repair of earthquake-induced damage considering an old reinforced concrete (RC) frame representative of those built in Italy before the 1970s. Such impacts, expressed ... -
Development and assessment of pro-poor financial soft policies for expanding earthquake-prone urban communities
ICASP14; Galasso, Carmine; Cremen, Gemma; Wang, Chenbo; Gentile, Roberto (2023)Recent major earthquake disasters have highlighted the effectiveness of regional financial soft policies (e.g., earthquake insurance) in transferring seismic risk away from those directly impacted and complementing 'hard' ... -
Simulating interacting multiple natural-hazard events for lifecycle consequence analysis
Galasso, Carmine; Gentile, Roberto; ICASP14; Iannacone, Leandro (2023)Among different types of natural-hazard interactions (simply multi-hazard interactions hereinafter), some occur through the nature of the hazards themselves, regardless of the presence of any physical assets: they are often ... -
Simulation-based flood fragility and vulnerability analysis for expanding cities
Manandhar, Vibek; Galasso, Carmine; Guragain, Ramesh; ICASP14; Creed, Maggie; Gentile, Roberto; Iannacone, Leandro; Malla, Prayash; Gyawali, Januka (2023)Accurately quantifying flood-induced impacts on buildings and other infrastructure systems is essential for risk-sensitive planning and decision-making in expanding urban regions. Flood-induced impacts are directly related ... -
Time- and state-dependent fragility analysis of deteriorating reinforced concrete buildings under seismic sequences
ICASP14; Otárola, Kenneth; Iannacone, Leandro; Gentile, Roberto; Galasso, Carmine (2023)Structural systems in seismically-active regions typically undergo multiple ground-motion sequences during their service life (including multiple mainshocks, mainshocks triggering other earthquakes on nearby fault segments, ...
