Simulación de funciones de vulnerabilidad y matrices de probabilidad de daño para estudios de riesgo sísmico.

Abstract

The fundamental concepts of observed and calculated seismic vulnerability are described as basic components of a seismic risk study. Two methodologies for the evaluation of both types of vulnerabilities are developed for non-reinforced masonry buildings. The first methodology allows to obtain and process the information from a survey of damaged buildings due to an earthquake in a site. Tbe second one is based on the damage simulation of buildings using structural models implemented in a compu n.' Física de/a 7Yerra 7, 327-366. Servicio de Publicaciones. Univensidad Complutense, ¡995 328 Fabricio Vépez, Alex U. Barbat Josep A. Canas y ter. The basis of both methodologies is the vulnerability mdcx ¡nethod. The results are presented as vulnerability functions and damage probability matrices, the first obtained in Spain. Finally, the methodologies are compared in order to derive possible applications relative to prevention disaster programs in urban arcas.
