Earthquake Risk Embedded in Property Prices: Evidence From Five Japanese Cities

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2018
We analyze the impact of short-run (90 days) and long-run (30 years) earthquake risk on real estate transaction prices in five Japanese cities (Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Fukuoka, and Sapporo), using quarterly data over the period 2006–2015. We exploit a rich

Form and load transfer aspects of foundation systems: Case‐based implementation and adaptation for buildings

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

Estimating Consumer Valuation of Earthquake Risk: Evidence from Japanese Housing Markets [PDF]

The relationships between seismic risk and rental and owner- occupied housing prices in the whole of Japan are examined. The empirical results from hedonic regressions with earthquake risk indices suggest that: (1) earthquake occurrence probability has a

Stress analysis of crack characteristic of anthracite under dynamic loading

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
In this article, the dynamic compression test of anthracite under five strain rates is carried out, the evolution law of three kinds of crack characteristic stress is analyzed, and a prediction model of the crack characteristic stress threshold considering the strain rate effect is established. Then, the rationality of crack characteristic stress under

Experimental and constitutive modeling investigations on marble in Jinping Underground Laboratory

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The objective of this study is to reveal the underlying mechanisms behind the brittle‐ductile transition of the marble through a combination of experimental research and constitutive modeling. A series of triaxial compression and triaxial cyclic loading tests are conducted.

Earthquake risk (prone) buildings

Bulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1996
Recent completion of the Earthquake Risk (Prone) survey of unreinforced masonry buildings in the Gisborne District provides an opportunity to review the results achieved and, bearing in mind the re-draft of the Red Book, reflect on observed behaviour of local buildings in two "moderate" or close to "moderate" earthquakes.

Characterization of the permeability evolution of hard and soft rocks under hydro‐mechanical coupling conditions

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The permeability variation of rocks during complete stress–strain processes was investigated. A mathematical model describing the influence of rock damage on permeability was constructed. The permeability–stress relationship between soft rock and hard rock was proposed.
