Optimum seismic zoning for multiple types of structures.

We consider zoning for the design criterion that minimizes the expected present value of the total cost, including the initial cost as well as losses due to damage and failure. The problem consists of the following : given the number of zones, their boundaries and design coefficients must be such th...
