Graph Neural Network Surrogate for seismic reliability analysis of highway bridge system
share
Rapid reliability assessment of transportation networks can enhance preparedness, risk mitigation and response management procedures related to these systems. Network reliability approaches commonly consider network-level responses, and due to computational cost do not consider the more detailed node-level responses. In this paper, we propose a rapid seismic reliability assessment approach for bridge networks based on graph neural networks, where node-level connectivities, between points of interest and other nodes, are quantified under probabilistic bridge conditions and earthquake events. Via numerical experiments on transportation systems in California, we demonstrate the accuracy, computational efficiency and robustness of the proposed approach compared to the Monte Carlo approach.
