Seismic Collapse Safety of Reinforced Concrete Buildings. I: Assessment of Ductile Moment Frames
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors apply nonlinear dynamic analyses to assess the risk of collapse of RC SMF buildings to quantify the seismic safety implied by modern building codes, and find that on average, these buildings have an 11% probability of collapse under ground motion intensities with a 2% probability for exceedance in 50 years.

Incremental dynamic analysis for estimating seismic performance sensitivity and uncertainty
TL;DR: In this paper, a nine-story steel moment-resisting frame is used as a testbed, employing parameterized moment-rotation relationships with non-deterministic quadrilinear backbones for the beam plastic-hinges.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incremental dynamic analysis with consideration of modeling uncertainties
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of aleatory and epistemic uncertainty on seismic response parameters are considered in extended IDA analysis, and it is shown that epistemic uncertainties does not have significant influence on the seismic response parameter in the range far from collapse, but could have a significant impact on collapse capacity.

The promise of implementing machine learning in earthquake engineering: A state-of-the-art review
TL;DR: The state-of-the-art review indicates to what extent ML has been applied in four topic areas of earthquake engineering, including seismic hazard analysis, system identification and damage detection, seismic fragility assessment, and structural control for earthquake mitigation.

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.

Probability, statistics, and decision for civil engineers
TL;DR: The Manuel Reference Record is used as a source for statistical uncertainty in the area of probabilite estimation and its values can be modified for error-correcting purposes.
