Establishing a deterministic seismic danger scenario at the Hicacos peninsula

open access: yesMinería y Geología, 2020
Using a deterministic approach to characterize soil movements, an earthquake scenario was developed for determining the seismic hazard of the Hicacos peninsula in Matanzas, Cuba.

Differentiable Randers‐Finsler Eikonal Solvers

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Fast and differentiable solvers for anisotropic and asymmetric distance fields are a key primitive in geometry processing, enabling gradient‐based optimization over metrics, drift fields, and downstream objectives that depend on geodesic distances and geodesics.

Deterministic seismic hazard assessments for Taiwan considering non-controlling seismic sources

open access: yes, 2014
The region around Taiwan is known for active seismicity, and a few studies have reported a high seismic hazard in this region, including a deterministic seismic hazard analysis (DSHA) study.

A review on the multi-criteria seismic hazard analysis of Ethiopia: with implications of infrastructural development

open access: yesGeoenvironmental Disasters, 2021
Earthquake is a sudden release of energy due to faults. Natural calamities like earthquakes can neither be predicted nor prevented. However, the severity of the damages can be minimized by development of proper infrastructure which includes microzonation

Measuring the Stringency of Building Height Regulations

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel methodology to measure the stringency of building height regulations. This measure gauges the difference in building heights with and without regulations. The primary challenge is to recover unobserved building heights in the absence of regulations.

Developement of Seismic Hazard Assesment For Sudan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Sudan has a long history of earthquakes. It is known to seismologists as areas of low moderate seismic activity, because it is located within interpolates regions.

Probabilistic seismic liquefaction hazard assessment of Kathmandu valley, Nepal

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2020
Earthquakes are frequent in the Himalayas and almost all moderate to strong earthquakes have caused enormous losses of lives and property in Kathmandu Valley, Nepal.

Influence of Site Amplification Approaches in PSRA: Insights From Five Different Cities

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Regional and national seismic hazard models used in probabilistic seismic risk analysis often rely on generalized proxy‐based site terms to account for ground shaking amplification. This can result in coarse representations of site response, which can introduce bias or additional uncertainty in the associated risk results.

Neo-deterministic seismic hazard assessment for Pakistan

open access: yes, 2021
By computing realistic synthetic seismograms, the neo-deterministic seismic hazard map has been prepared for Pakistan and adjoining areas in terms of Dmax, Vmax, and DGA values.

Integration of Site Effects into Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA): A Comparison between Two Fully Probabilistic Methods on the Euroseistest Site

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
The integration of site effects into Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA) is still an open issue within the seismic hazard community. Several approaches have been proposed varying from deterministic to fully probabilistic, through hybrid ...
