Numerical results treating vegetation as a variable will be utilized to quantify structural vulnerability using either readily available fragility curves or comparing the induced forces (demand) to the capacity of the structure. Out-of-plane failure is considered in the latter case. Results demonstrate that the protection offered by vegetation is substantial and can lead to a significant reduction in the vulnerability of the shielded structure.<br><br><b>Recorded Presentation from the vICCE (YouTube Link): <a href="https://youtu.be/3H2XhLI8sZA">https://youtu.be/3H2XhLI8sZA</a></b></html>}, number={36v}, journal={Coastal Engineering Proceedings}, author={Kyprioti, Aikaterini and Taflanidis, Alexandros and Kennedy, Andrew}, year={2020}, month={Dec.}, pages={management.40} }
