Investigation of the Effect of Debris-Induced Damage for Constructing Tsunami Fragility Curves for Buildings

Investigation of the Effect of Debris-Induced Damage for Constructing Tsunami Fragility Curves for Buildings

Catastrophe models quantify potential losses from disasters, and are used in the insurance, disaster-risk management, and engineering industries. Tsunami fragility and vulnerability curves are key components of catastrophe models, providing probabilistic links between Tsunami Intensity Measures (TIM...
