Abstract
The characterization of seismic hazard through stochastic ground motion models, providing a description of the entire earthquake-acceleration time-history, is discussed in this paper. A probabilistic framework is presented for assessment of seismic risk and an innovative sensitivity analysis is discussed for identification of the importance of the various risk factors within this context. An illustrative example is presented that considers risk quantification in terms of the life-cycle repair cost, implementing an assembly-based vulnerability approach to calculate the latter.
