On the application of machine learning techniques to derive seismic fragility curves
TL;DR: The statistical results demonstrate that among applied methods, random forest and quadratic discriminant analysis are, respectively, preferable with the imbalanced and balanced datasets since they show the highest efficiency in predicting the structural responses.

Failure mode classification and bearing capacity prediction for reinforced concrete columns based on ensemble machine learning algorithm
TL;DR: An intelligent approach is presented for FM classification and bearing capacity prediction of RC columns based on the ensemble machine learning techniques and shows that ensemble learning (especially AdaBoost) has better performance than single learning.

Equation of state calculations by fast computing machines
TL;DR: In this article, a modified Monte Carlo integration over configuration space is used to investigate the properties of a two-dimensional rigid-sphere system with a set of interacting individual molecules, and the results are compared to free volume equations of state and a four-term virial coefficient expansion.

Monte Carlo Sampling Methods Using Markov Chains and Their Applications
TL;DR: A generalization of the sampling method introduced by Metropolis et al. as mentioned in this paper is presented along with an exposition of the relevant theory, techniques of application and methods and difficulties of assessing the error in Monte Carlo estimates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incremental dynamic analysis
TL;DR: Incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) is a parametric analysis method that has recently emerged in several different forms to estimate more thoroughly structural performance under seismic loads as mentioned in this paper, which involves subjecting a structural model to one or more ground motion record(s), each scaled to multiple levels of intensity, thus producing one (or more) curve(s) of response parameterized versus intensity level.
