Abstract:To estimate seismic damage of structures under strong motions is very important to know true safety of structures. However, we have to deal with very small failure probability issue to investigate quantitatively. If we use standard MCS (Monte Calro Simulation) to discuss failure probability, e.g., 1 × 10 −6 order, since we have to execute nonlinear dynamic response analyses of approximate 10 7 times, it is not realistic. Recently, a subset simulation, which reduces the computation time by replacing small failu… Show more
