目的本文旨在对地震活动区地震后火灾(FFE)作为一种潜在的社区危害问题进行文献综述。这篇论文对于努力建设易受极端灾害影响的有复原力的社区很重要。设计/方法/方式-该文件列出并回顾了历史FFE事件(20个地震,来自7个国家),研究了可用的分析工具,以评估火灾点火和蔓延的社区地震后,讨论了现有的研究地震后火灾下的个别建筑物的性能,并总结了目前的文献缓解技术地震后火灾。结果FFE可以被认为是一个潜在的危险,特别是没有准备好这样的条件下,城市社区。现有的分析模型尚未完全达到城市当局可用于决策的标准,因此应进一步验证。个别建筑物在FFE情景下的有限结构分析已经完成。结果表明,地震后火灾对建筑框架的位移需求增大。尽管采取了缓解行动,但仍有城市没有为这种事件做好准备,例如美国加州的某些地区。独创性/价值-该文件是一个完整的和详尽的收集不同方面的FFE的文献。在地震工程的研究是很先进的,而火灾荷载下的结构分析和性能的社区下FFE可以进一步推进。
Purpose This paper aims to present a literature review on the problem of fire following earthquake (FFE) as a potential hazard to communities in seismically active regions. The paper is important to work toward resilient communities that are subject to extreme hazards. Design/methodology/approach The paper lists and reviews the historical FFE events (20 earthquakes from 7 countries), studies the available analytical tools to evaluate fire ignition and spread in communities after an earthquake, discusses the available studies on performance of individual buildings under post-earthquake fires and summarizes the current literature on mitigation techniques for post-earthquake fires. Findings FFE can be considered a potential hazard for urban communities that are especially not prepared for such conditions. The available analytical models are not yet fully up to the standards that can be used by city authorities for decision-making, and therefore, should be further validated. Limited structural analyses of individual buildings under FFE scenarios have been completed. Results show that the drift demand on the building frame increases during post-earthquake fires. Despite the mitigation actions, there are still urban cities that are not prepared for such an event, such as certain areas of California in the USA. Originality/value The paper is a complete and an exhaustive collection of literature on different aspects of FFE. Research in earthquake engineering is well advanced, while structural analyses under fire load and performance of communities under FFE can be further advanced.
