“…More straightforward classifications of building attributes can be identified quickly before classify vulnerability. Torres et al (2019) and Meyers, Gaspar-Escribano, and Martínez-Cuevas (2019) created robust exposure and vulnerability databases with different áreas of application. The first one used satellite images in two cities in Spain and Central America and the second one implemented a collaborative mapping approach in the urban center of Valdivia Chile.…”

The present study proposes a statistical methodology to rate the habitability of different types of buildings after an earthquake. The first step was to rank variables that affect the vulnerability of a building and formúlate a statistical study with a discrimination Índex that makes it possible to identify buildings as habitable or non-habitable. This ranking applied the criteria established in various international guidelines that are used to distinguish between habitable (undamaged/no structural damage) and non-habitable buildings (structural damage). The proposed methodology was applied to a datábase with information about buildings and damage grade experienced following the 2011 earthquake in Lorca. The approach presented could be extended to other regions where neccessary data are available. 65 23 42 2008 aaPAGER Global 81 9 72 2013 EMCA Central Asia 16 6 10 2017 CSA Central and South Asia 29 9 20 '45 WHE subtypes over 14 load-bearing typologies ** 81 typologies over nine classes of materials

Solar cell simulations have become an essential tool for the design of more efficient types of photovoltaic devices. However, it is not widely known that in principle, the simulation of a solar cell can be done entirely on a computer, starting from a fundamental atomistic level and ending up with an accurate prediction of the J-V characteristics of the final device. We will illustrate the use of ab initio methods to study fundamental light-matter interactions, and we will point out how to combine these methods with simple model approaches and state-of-the-art device simulations to obtain powerful numerical tools that may be used alongside experimental studies. Being work in progress, the suggested approaches are marked by a variety of open technical problems, but they also provide interesting new opportunities to develop more accurate types of solar cell device simulations.
