NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THE CATASTROPHIC EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI IN CHILE ON 9 MAY 1877 [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Tsunami Hazards, 2022
In this paper, on the basis of the available historical data and geodynamic studies, numerical simulation of the historical catastrophic earthquake and tsunami of May 9, 1877 is carried out by making use the so called “keyboard” geodynamical model ...

Deterministic full-scenario analysis for maximum credible earthquake hazards

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Great earthquakes are one of the major threats to modern society due to their great destructive power and unpredictability. The maximum credible earthquake (MCE) for a specific fault, i.e., the largest magnitude earthquake that may occur there, has ...

Earthquake‐induced landslide scenarios for seismic microzonation. Application to the Accumoli area (Rieti, Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Scenarios of earthquake-induced landslides are necessary for seismic microzonation (SM) studies since they must be integrated with the mapping of instability areas.

On the contribution of the horizontal sea-bed displacements into the tsunami generation process [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The main reason for the generation of tsunamis is the deformation of the bottom of the ocean caused by an underwater earthquake. Usually, only the vertical bottom motion is taken into account while the horizontal co-seismic displacements are neglected in

NUMERICAL MODELING OF THE 1998 PAPUA NEW GUINEA TSUNAMI USING THE COMCOT

open access: yesBarekeng
The Papua New Guinea tsunami of 1998 is a unique phenomenon because the source of the tsunami propagation has been speculated. There was a 7.1-magnitude earthquake on July 17, 1998, at 18:49 WIT before the tsunami hit the Aitape area.

Renormalization of earthquake aftershocks

open access: yes, 1999
Together with the Gutenberg-Richter distribution of earthquake magnitudes, Omori's law is the best established empirical characterization of earthquake sequences and states that the number of smaller earthquakes per unit time triggered by a main shock ...

Dynamic investigation on the Mirandola bell tower in post-earthquake scenarios [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
After the seismic events of the 20th and 29th of May 2012 in Emilia (Italy), most of the monumental and historic buildings of the area were severely damaged. In a few structures, partial collapse mechanisms were observed (e.g.

Analisis Numerik Pengaruh Beban Hujan dan Gempa pada Stabilitas Lereng Tanah Tak Jenuh

open access: yesJurnal Teknik Sipil
Rain and earthquake affect the stability of the slope. Rain results in infiltration on the slope which causes a decrease in negative pore water pressure on the slope and increases the groundwater level.

Seismically induced landslide hazard and exposure modelling in Southern California based on the 1994 Northridge, California earthquake event

open access: yes, 2015
Quantitative modelling of landslide hazard, as opposed to landslide susceptibility, as a function of the earthquake trigger is vital in understanding and assessing future potential exposure to landsliding.
