Improved procedure for determining the ductility of buildings under seismic loads [PDF]
Displacement ductility is a parameter that characterizes the seismic response of structures. Moreover, displacement ductility can be used in order to determine whether a structural design, performed according to a specific seismic code or not, may ...

Wavelet analysis of the LF radio signals collected by the European VLF/LF network from July 2009 to April 2011 [PDF]
In 2008, a radio receiver that works in very low frequency (VLF; 20-60 kHz) and LF (150-300 kHz) bands was developed by an Italian factory. The receiver can monitor 10 frequencies distributed in these bands, with the measurement for each of them of the ...

P wave velocity variations in the Coso Region, California, derived from local earthquake travel times [PDF]
Inversion of 4036 P wave travel time residuals from 429 local earthquakes using a tomographic scheme provides information about three-dimensional upper crustal velocity variations in the Indian Wells Valley-Coso region of southeastern California.

Constraints on the long-period moment-dip tradeoff for the Tohoku earthquake [PDF]
Since the work of Kanamori and Given (1981), it has been recognized that shallow, pure dip-slip earthquakes excite long-period surface waves such that it is difficult to independently constrain the moment (M_0) and the dip (δ) of the source mechanism ...

Establishing the Pre-requisites of Post-disaster Reconstruction in Rural Settlements (Case study: Estalakh-kouhVillage) [PDF]
A major part of land in Iran is located on the high to very high seismic risk territory. The recurring destruction and life-loss or human casualties in rural settlements are very often due to this natural phenomenon.

Third sector organizations and earthquake recovery planning in Christchurch, New Zealand [PDF]
On September 4, 2010, an earthquake struck rural Canterbury and the most deadly of over 2,000 aftershocks devastated the Christchurch Central Business District on February 22, 2011 (Ardagh et al. 2012). Questions have arisen regarding population dynamics

Double difference relocation of local earthquakes in the Nepal Himalaya
Interseismic strain across the Himalaya is associated with intense microseismic activity. In this study we analyze in detail this seismicity to explore in more details how it relates to Himalayan tectonics. We use the Double Difference Relocation Method to relocate local earthquakes recorded by National Seismological Centre in the period between 1995 ...

Co-seismic deformation during the M_w 7.3 Aqaba earthquake (1995) from ERS-SAR interferometry [PDF]
The M_w 7.3 1995 Aqaba earthquake is the largest instrumental earthquake along the Dead Sea Fault. We complement previous seismological studies by analyzing co‐seismic ground displacement from differential interferometry computed from ERS images spanning
