Earthquake Engineering for Resilience

Structures, Communities and Networks

Earthquake Engineering for Resilience introduces a multi-scale framework for assessing seismic vulnerability and improving resilience across structures, communities, and infrastructure. It combines research and practical applications across engineering, urban planning and disaster-risk management.

Earthquake Engineering for Resilience: Structures, Communities and Networks presents a multi-scale framework for assessing seismic vulnerability and improving resilience across buildings, communities and critical infrastructure networks. Bridging engineering, urban planning, and disaster management perspectives, the framework addresses the full spectrum of earthquake impacts – from immediate structural damage to prolonged service disruption and community recovery.

The book integrates four essential methodologies: analytical modelling, empirical assessment, functionality-b
