Time-variant Seismic Risk Analysis of Transportation Networks Considering Economic and Socioeconomic Impacts, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Mahsuli, Mojtaba (Supervisor) ; Samimi, Amir (Co-Advisor)
Abstract
This thesis targets the multidisciplinary area of time-variant seismic risk analysis of transportation networks. For this purpose, a new methodology and a library of probabilistic models are developed. Risk, in this context, denotes the probability of exceeding the sum of direct and indirect losses due to seismic events. Direct economic losses are due to the repair cost of the physical damage in the components of the network, such as bridges. The indirect losses are due to the reduced capacity of the components for traffic flow, which results in increased travel times in the network. This leads to socioeconomic losses. In this research, a reliability-based approach is adopted to carry out...
