| Abstract | "Health care facilities or hospital systems are classified as some of the most critical infrastructure systems when responding to natural disasters. Seismic Resilience Assessment of Hospital Infrastructure systematically presents a suite of novel techniques developed by the authors and their team for seismic resilience assessment of hospital infrastructure, with particular emphasis on seismic tests and fragility models of hospital equipment, resilience assessment of single hospital buildings and emergency departments, and post-earthquake functionality of urban hospital infrastructures"-- Provided by publisher. |
