Fragility Analysis of Building Envelope Components Subject to Windborne Debris Impact Hazard
This thesis presents a methodology for developing windborne debris (WBD) impact fragility curves for building envelope components (BECs) by using stochastic finite element (FE) models. These fragility curves provide the probabilistic description of the impact resistance of BECs subject to an impact...
