DERIVATION OF VULNERABILITY FUNCTIONS BASED ON OBSERVATIONAL DATA FOR IRAN

摘要：

Iran is located on one of the most seismic areas of the world. It is situated over the Himalayan-Alpied seismic belt and is one of those countries which have lost many human lives due to the occurrence of earthquakes. Therefore research work related to seismic risk assessment is very important in this country. In this paper, existing vulnerability relationships for structures are reviewed with a view to their application to an Iranian seismic risk assessment scenario. Then based on this study and a data bank of post-earthquake damage distributions observed in the earthquake events in Iran, new empirical fragility curves for different building groups are derived.
