Vulnerability Modeller's Toolkit (oq-vmtk)

An open-source Python toolkit for earthquake structural modelling, nonlinear analysis, and seismic vulnerability assessment

Description

The Vulnerability Modellers Toolkit (oq-vmtk) is a Python library for regional seismic vulnerability and risk modelling. It provides a self-contained workflow — from ground motion processing and structural model compilation through nonlinear analysis to fragility and vulnerability function derivation, powered by OpenSeesPy. The toolkit is designed for earthquake engineers and model developers, who need a reproducible and standardised library of functions to integrate to their structural assessment workflows.
