OVERVIEW
This course, offered within the Doctoral Programme in Earthquake Engineering at IUSS Pavia and organised by the Global Earthquake Model (GEM) Foundation, is designed to present an in-depth introduction to the latest methods and models for assessing seismic vulnerability, along with their development in the OpenQuake Vulnerability Modeller’s Toolkit and their application in the OpenQuake Engine across a range of practical scenarios. The programme combines theoretical lectures with hands-on training sessions focused on the use of the OpenQuake Vulnerability Modeller’s Toolkit, culminating in a case study implemented in the OpenQuake Engine.
