Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Damage investigation and economic loss assessment in seismic events estimated by risk analysis are serious concerns of safety managers. There are two types of risk analyses: conventional performance-based seismic analysis employing conditional probability, and reliability-based risk analysis implementing the unified reliability analysis. Although reliability-based risk analysis requires further development in certain areas, it gives distinct advantages compared to conventional risk analysis. This study proposes a new modification of the reliability-based risk analysis to simulate the Poisson point process in which the unified reliability analysis is reformulated based on the fast integration analysis. This reformulation eliminates the need for the simulation process of the sampling-based approach by employing the point estimation procedure, as the result yields a limited number of component reliability problems that can be addressed through the application of numerical nonlinear programming optimization. Another part of this study is allocated to define different parts of the unified reliability analysis such as modeling the ground motion by employing an artificial earthquake generation, etc., and these new tools aim to enhance the functionality of the reliability-based risk analysis. The performance and robustness of the proposed unified reliability analysis are completely investigated through a comprehensive numerical example, involving a linear dynamic analysis of a finite-element model of a concrete circular tunnel. The results demonstrate the successive performance of the proposed framework in achieving accurate results and a significant decrease in computational cost.
