Seismic Fragility Analysis of CFST Frame-Shear Wall Structures Based on the IDA Method

To improve the seismic performance of buildings and reduce earthquake-related disaster risks, this study employs the MIDAS finite element analysis platform to establish a numerical model of a 15-story concrete-filled steel tube frame-shear wall structure. Recorded natural ground motion data are used as the primary input, and a main shock-aftershock sequence is constructed using an attenuation-based method. On this basis, a seismic fragility analysis framework is adopted to derive structural fragility curves, which are subsequently assembled into a comprehensive seismic fragility matrix. The results indicate that, under identical main shock-aftershock sequences, aftershock effects increase the collapse probability of the unretrofitted structure by approximately 17–37%. Furthermore, when buckling-restrained braces are introduced, the structural strength at the same damage state increases by about 8% under the action of the main shock alone and by nearly 24% when both the main shock and aftershocks are considered.
