Autonomous decision-making against induced seismicity in deep fluid injections

, 2018
The rise in the frequency of anthropogenic earthquakes due to deep fluid injections is posing serious economic, societal, and legal challenges to geo-energy and waste-disposal projects.

Global EarthquakE ScEnarios (GEESE): An OpenQuake Engine-Based Rupture Matching Algorithm and Scenarios Database for Seismic Source Model Testing and Rapid Post-Event Response Analysis

Seismica
The Global EarthquakE ScEnarios (GEESE) algorithm retrieves from a seismic hazard input model the ruptures matching a set of criteria (e.g., magnitude, location, focal mechanism).

Simplified Estimation of Economic Seismic Risk for Buildings [PDF]

, 2004
A seismic risk assessment is often performed on behalf of a buyer of commercial buildings in seismically active regions. One outcome of the assessment is that a probable maximum loss (PML) is computed.

Comparing observed damages and losses with modelled ones using a probabilistic approach: the Lorca 2011 case [PDF]

, 2016
A loss and damage assessment was performed for the buildings of Lorca, Spain, considering an earthquake hazard scenario with similar characteristics to those of a real event which occurred on May 11th, 2011, in terms of epicentre, depth and magnitude ...

Earthquake Risk in Japan: Consumers' Risk Mitigation Responses After the Great East Japan Earthquake [PDF]

Journal of Economic Issues, 2012
The destructive impact of the Great East Japan Earthquake and subsequent tsunami on March 11, 2011 has enhanced consumer's earthquake preparedness even in unaffected areas. This paper uses unique survey data collected after the earthquake to study how consumers reacted to this catastrophic event.

Magnitude and seismogenic fault determination of ground effects paleosismic-induced at Huoshan and Guzhen in Anhui province, China

Geodesy and Geodynamics
In paleoseismic research, defining the age of an event is relatively straightforward, but pinpointing its magnitude with precision is challenging. This difficulty primarily arises because physical parameters, such as rupture area and displacement, which ...
