Vulnerability-Based Economic Loss Rate Assessment of a Frame Structure Under Stochastic Sequence Ground Motions by Zheng Zhang, Yunmu Jiang, Zixin Liu

“…While effective at capturing nonlinear correlations, these methods are typically black box in nature, data-dependent, and difficult to generalize across tectonic settings. More importantly, they tend to focus solely on marginal or joint parameter correlations, which implicitly treat mainshocks and aftershocks as independent stochastic processes, thereby overlooking their inherent spectral interaction. …”
