Seismic fragility and vulnerability assessment is an essential step in the evaluation of
probabilistic seismic risk. Ideally, models developed and calibrated for the building portfolio …

Abstract Systems for Rapid Response to Earthquakes (RRE) aim at providing reliable and
near-real time ground-motion and loss estimates following an earthquake, in order to help …

Remote sensing data and methods are widely deployed in order to contribute to the
assessment of numerous components of earthquake risk. While for earthquake hazard …

This study uses material flow analysis to estimate the material stocks and flows and
associated upfront embodied carbon emissions for gravity building structural systems in the …

Building exposure and vulnerability models for seismic risk assessment have been the focus
of a number of European projects in recent years, but there has never been a concerted …

The assessment of the seismic risk at a national scale represents an important resource in
order to introduce measures that may reduce potential losses due to future earthquakes …

The present paper addresses the seismic performance of a half-scale two-story unreinforced
masonry (URM) building with structural irregularity in plan and in elevation. The main …

The global building exposure model is a mosaic of local and regional models with
information regarding the residential, commercial, and industrial building stock at the …

This study presents an open and transparent exposure model for the residential building
stock in South America. This model captures the geographical distribution, structural …

The aim of this study is to describe the evolution of vulnerability over the years for masonry
buildings characterized by a good quality layout and/or a regular texture. To this aim, data …
