Displacement-Based Earthquake Loss Assessment for an Earthquake Scenario in Istanbul

Journal of Earthquake Engineering, 2008
DBELA is a Displacement-Based Earthquake Loss Assessment methodology for urban areas which relates the displacement capacity of the building stock to the displacement demand from earthquake scenarios. The building stock is modeled as a random population of building classes with varying geometrical and material properties.

Modeling of Ground Motion at Napoli for the 1688 Scenario Earthquake [PDF]

open access: possiblePure and Applied Geophysics, 2010
The Sannio seismogenic area turns out to be responsible for the highest peak ground accelerations (PGA) and seismic response spectra (SRS) at Napoli. The 1688 earthquake is considered representative of the area, and realistic synthetic seis- mograms have been computed for this scenario earthquake at the historical center and the eastern sector of ...

Microzonation for Earthquake Scenarios

2010
Seismic microzonation involves generation of seismic hazard maps with respect to estimated ground motion characteristics on engineering bedrock outcrop based on a regional seismic hazard study compatible with the scale of the microzonation. A grid system is implemented dividing the investigation area into cells according to the availability of ...

Scenario Earthquake for Key Engineering Structures

Earth & Space 2008, 2008
We suggest the criteria and steps on selecting scenario earthquakes for important engineering structures in this paper, the main ideas are that the scenario earthquake should be determined by considering two main factors at least, i.e., seismic environment (represented by Seismic Hazard Analysis normally) and structural dynamic property (represented by

One of the Scenarios for Supershear Earthquakes

Physical Mesomechanics
This paper is a part of the study on rupture propagation and seismic wave emission during movement along the fault, the main displacement of which in different regions is made by geomaterials with different frictional properties. The slip surface of the fault is not frictionally homogeneous.

Tsunami-Tide Simulation in a Large Bay Based on the Greatest Earthquake Scenario Along the Nankai Trough

, 2016
This study investigated influences of tides on a giant tsunami generated by the greatest earthquake scenario along the Nankai Trough occurring in the near future by conducting a tsunami-tide simulation in Osaka Bay as a pilot shallow ocean.

Deterministic modelling for microzonation of Sofia - An expected earthquake scenario

Acta Geodaetica et Geophysica Hungarica, 2004
The capital of Bulgaria, Sofia is a growing city with population around 1.22 million. The city is exposed to a high seismic risk since it is placed in the centre of Sofia seismic area. Over the centuries in the town of Sofia the macroseismic intensities have been larger than IX (MSK).

Earthquake Ground Motion Scenarios for the City of Ruse

2021
Global seismic risk and vulnerability to earthquakes are increasing steadily as urbanization and development occupy more areas that are prone to effects of strong earthquakes. The assessment of seismic hazard and generation of earthquake scenarios is the first link in the prevention chain and the first step in the evaluation of the seismic risk. In the

Earthquake scenario for the mega‐city of Tehran

Disaster Prevention and Management: An International Journal, 2001
Reports on joint efforts by the municipality of Tehran and the scientific body to prepare and implement earthquake reduction policies in the Tehran region, a mega‐city with an approximate population of 10 million people. Focuses specifically on analyzing the seismic vulnerability of the city by considering topography, geology, seismotectonics and ...

Hazard and Risk Scenarios of Landslides Triggered by Earthquakes

2013
This study shows, for a landslide prone area, the assessment of the slopes capacity to withstand earthquakes and how triggered mass movements can threaten potentially exposed structures and facilities. As a result a set of spatial representations (i.e., scenarios) of slope performances in a variety of seismic and climatic conditions is given and how ...
