| 摘要： | According to NOAA, eleven billion-dollar weather disasters occurred in the United States in 2012. One of the predominant reasons that storms become disasters is the failure of civil infrastructure systems, also known as ''lifelines,'' on which communities rely. The approach to modeling resilience herein is through the use of systems-based models of performance. The models are based on empirical evidence of the ability of the underlying structural delivery system to provide essential infrastructure services to the community. For example, electric power delivery performance, subject to extreme storms, is sensitive to the combined system of mounted electrical and mechanical equipment, substations, and poles and towers that comprise the distribution and transmission systems. Interdependency is assessed first through previously derived input-output models of recovery to storm hazards and then significantly expanded in this paper. Further, the research results, based upon examination of extensive geocoded data for actual events, show that tropical and midlatitude cyclonic storm systems are similar in their destructive tendencies in coastal regions of the United States. These types of storms are composed of the multiple hazards of high wind speeds, precipitation, and flooding due to storm surge or heavy rainfall. Traditional analyses of infrastructure performance have relied upon evaluating the effect of one hazard or demand variable such as wind speed or peak storm surge on the loss of structural capacity. This investigation suggests that multivariate distributions of the demand variables of wind speed, storm surge, and rainfall are important for the analysis of infrastructure performance. Novel aspects of the research presented here in elude the synthesis of input-output interdependency models with logit tra ns formations for system-based structural fragility relationships using multivariate hazard information, the development of multivariate hazard representations for select storms, and the use of single degree of freedom (SDOF) system analogs to model the minimizatio n of lifeline inoperability. Another novel aspect of the research involves the extension of the in operability SDOF model to assess correlation of the SDOF parameters with multiple weather hazard variables. Characterization of this correlation allows for the implementation of numerical simulations to predict system performance for various demand levels.

- This study conducted experimental research on inelastic behavior of RC beams under cyclic loading. The experimental results were investigated and compared for two types of plastic behavior, ductile and nominally ductile, and for two types of plastic hinge mechanism, unidirectional (nonreversing) and bidirectional (reversing) behavior. For test samples with different transverse reinforcement detailing and inelastic demand, displacement capacities, curvature ductility ratios, longitudinal reinforcement strain capacities, plastic hinge lengths, concrete contribution to shear force, and cumulative dissipated energy capacities were obtained for various damage limit states. A new cumulative damage index is proposed based on plastic hinge behavior of RC beams taking into account the low-cycle fatigue behavior of longitudinal reinforcing steel. Tbe proposed damage model was compared with experimental results. DOI: 10.106l/(ASCE)ST.1943-541X.0002688. © 2020 American Society of Civil Engineers.
