• TITLE: Resilience and Sustainability in Seismic Performance Assessment: A Review

  AUTHORS: Hanshu Zhang

  KEYWORDS: Earthquakes, Sustainability, Climate Change, Performance-Based Engineering, Life Cycle Analysis

  ABSTRACT: This paper provides a summary of the literature in the past twelve years that focused on life cycle seismic performance of buildings and bridges, considering metrics related to both resilience and sustainability. The studies were presented and discussed in terms of the following categories: 1) individual buildings, 2) portfolio-scale assessments of buildings, 3) seismic retrofit of buildings, 4) bridges (individual and network), 5) methods for jointly assessing resilience and sustainability in life cycle performance assessment and 6) optimization for resilience and sustainability. Several of the considered studies focused on issues that belong to multiple categories (e.g., optimizing seismic retrofit of building portfolios) and are therefore discussed in multiple sections. The methodology used to review the existing literature is also presented along with the geographic distribution of the authors and publication timelines. Given the acute focus in recent years on climate resilience, we expect that research in this area will continue to grow in popularity.
