The OQ-VMTK is a powerful toolkit developed by scientists at the Global Earthquake Model (GEM) Foundation. Designed for earthquake engineers and catastrophe modellers, it provides a comprehensive platform powered by OpenSees for running representative (idealised) models, developing fragility and vulnerability assessments, and offering extensive flexibility in defining seismic demand, structural capacity, damage criteria, and damage-to-loss conversion.

-**Fragility Analysis:** Conduct probabilistic seismic demand modeling to establish relationships between engineering demand parameters (EDPs) and intensity measures (IMs) using nonlinear time-history analyses (e.g., cloud analysis, multiple stripe analyses). Estimate damage exceedance probabilities while accounting for record-to-record variability and modeling uncertainty. Multiple approaches are supported, including conventional methods (e.g., lognormal cumulative distribution functions) and advanced techniques (e.g., generalized linear models and ordinal models).

-**Storey Loss Function Generation:** Develop storey-level loss functions based on a user-defined inventory of structural components, nonstructural components, and building contents.
58

-**Vulnerability Analysis:** Derive vulnerability functions to evaluate both economic and human-centered decision variables. These functions integrate damage-to-loss ratios and/or storey loss functions, with explicit treatment of uncertainties associated with loss conditional on ground-shaking intensity.
