Title: Assessment of seismic vulnerability of existing masonry buildings in urban area
Authors: Nikolić, Željana, Kozulić, Vedrana, Ostojić-Škomrlj, Nives
Publisher Information: 2022.
Publication Year: 2022
Subject Terms: Vulnerability index method, Hybrid procedure, Masonry buildings, Pushover method, Seismic vulnerability assessment
Description: A comprehensive hybrid approach to large-scale seismic vulnerability and risk assessment of existing urban areas is presented in this study. The approach combines the advantages of the vulnerability index method in assessing the vulnerability of a large number of buildings with the pushover method, that allows to determine the capacity curves and detect the specific limit states of the buildings. The described methodology is used to calculate seismic vulnerability indexes, damage indexes, critical accelerations for different limit states and seismic risk indexes for the case study Kaštel Kambelovac.
