2.7. ANA: Asset Analysis¶
In this panel, users can select specific applications for analyzing different asset classes. To choose an asset type, such as Buildings or Transportation Network, users interact with the Asset Selection Ribbon on the left side of the interface as depicted in Fig. 2.7.1. This ribbon is initially hidden and becomes visible when multiple asset types are selected in the GI: General Information panel. Only assets marked in the GI panel will be listed in the Asset Selection Ribbon. Switching between assets updates the Input Panel to display the relevant analysis applications for the selected asset type.
2.7.1. Buildings¶
For building analysis, the following applications are supported:
OpenSees
OpenSeesPy
IMasEDP
PreTrained Surrogate Models
CustomPy-Simulation
None
2.7.1.1. OpenSees Analysis Model¶
The OpenSees option performs structural analysis using OpenSees. If an “Analysis Script” argument is provided, the quantities defined with the graphical user interface will be ignored.
Following is an example of user-provided analysis script
(.tcl) that additionally sets the “-fullGenLapack 1” flag on top of the selections shown in the above image.

2.7.1.2. OpenSeesPy Analysis Model¶
The OpenSeesPy application utilizes OpenSeesPy for structural analysis.
2.7.1.3. IMasEDP Analysis Model¶
The IMasEDP application directly uses the hazard intensity measure (IM) as the engineering demand parameter (EDP), bypassing structural analysis.
2.7.1.4. Pre-trained surrogate models¶
The Pre-trained surrogate model is used to import the surrogate models trained using EE-UQ. The surrogate model can take the parameters of structure (e.g. initial stiffness, post-yield stiffness, yield drift, construction year etc) and the intensity measures of recorded or stochastically generated ground motions (e.g. peak ground acceleration, peak spectral acceleration, significant duration etc.) as its input.
Refer to Step 1 in the EE-UQ documentation for initial steps. Users must complete the Surrogate Models and Default Analysis tabs to use pre-trained surrogate models.
Surrogate Models
Filter script: A Python script provided by the user to assign surrogate models to buildings when multiple surrogate models representing different building types are provided. The script should contain a function named
model distributor
that processes dictionary inputs for general information (GI
) and structural analysis model parameters (SAM
), returning the surrogate model name or “Default”. Below is an example of the filter script.def model_distributor(GI,SAM): if GI["NumberOfStories"]==1 and GI["StructureType"]=="W1": modelName ="SimGpModel" elif GI["NumberOfStories"]==2 and GI["StructureType"]=="W1": modelName ="SimGpModel2" else: modelName ="Default" return modelName
Below are example keys and values of GI and SAM dictionaries that will be provided to the model.

Surrogate models: surrogate model files in JSON (.json) format. Each surrogate model can be separately trained and exported in JSON format through EE-UQ. The surrogate models will take structural parameters (structure information and structural analysis parameters computed in the modeling app (specified in the MOD tab)), and ground motion intensity parameters as inputs. Below, we list the names of the parameters that will be passed to the surrogate model and its example values. When training a surrogate model through EE-UQ, make sure it only expects a subset of the structural variables listed below as inputs (The ground motion parameters are processed automatically internally, so users do not need to be concerned about naming rules on those variables).

2.7.2. Transportation Infrastructure Analysis¶
2.7.2.1. IMasEDP Analysis Model¶
Similar to buildings, the IMasEDP application for transportation infrastructure uses the hazard intensity measure (IM) directly as the engineering demand parameter (EDP), bypassing structural analysis.
