Framework for the vulnerability assessment of structure under mainshock-aftershock sequences
AbstractMany earthquakes have indicated that the mainshock-damaged structures may be more vulnerable to severe damage and collapse during the subsequent aftershocks. This manuscript presents a framework for the vulnerability assessment of structure under the mainshock-aftershock sequences. In this framework, the engineering demand parameter (EDP) which can more effectively characterized the additional damage of structure induced by aftershock, and the intensity measure (IM) having the higher correlation with the additional damage of structure are selected and used. The versatility of the proposed framework is demonstrated on a case-study reinforced concrete (RC) frame structure with 5 stories. The influences of aftershocks on the fragility of structure are studied for different limit states. The effects of aftershocks on the fragility of structure are more obvious for the case that mainshock fragility changes from 30% to 60%, and the maximum influence of aftershock can exceed 15%. The results in this study can be used to evaluate the vulnerability of structure under the seismic sequence in the pre-earthquake environment.
HighlightsFramework is proposed for seismic sequence vulnerability assessment.The EDP selection and IM selection are incorporated into this framework.Proposed framework is applied to a low-rise RC frame structure.The effects of aftershock on fragility can exceed 15%.
