| Abstract: | Because earthquake intensity has strong fuzziness, it may be considered as a fuzzy subset of an intensity reference set. The methods of single-stage and two-stage multifactorial evaluation that are presented herein can be used to evaluate this intensity. The human responses and experiences that are often employed to rate earthquake intensity can be expressed concretely in mathematical form through the use of these methods. In addition, by using related membership levels in the fuzzy vector of intensity, a method has been developed to determine the values of the parameters used in structural aseismic design. |
