A framework for probabilistic seismic risk assessment of NG distribution networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lifelines are essential infrastructures for human activities and the economic developm ent of a region. Lifelines vulnerability reduction is an actual question, particularly with reference to NaTech events, like earthquakes.

Hard-Site κ0 (Kappa) calculations for Christchurch, New Zealand, and comparison with local ground-motion prediction, models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The 2010–2012 Canterbury earthquake sequence generated a large number of near‐source earthquake recordings, with the vast majority of large events occurring within 30 km of Christchurch, New Zealand’s second largest city.

Analysis of the unusual earthquake of 13 August 2006 in Michoacán, México [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The moderate earthquake of 13 August 2006 which occurred in the coastal area of Michoacán, México, offered the first opportunity to study an earthquake that has a focal mechanism oriented practically perpendicular to the vast majority of the earthquakes ...

XYtracker: a new approach to estimate fault rupture extent in real time for large earthquakes

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2022
We present a methodology for estimating fault geometry and utilizing the distance to the fault for the shaking estimation to improve the accuracy of real-time shaking estimates for large earthquakes.

Selection of ground motion prediction equations for the global earthquake model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ground motion prediction equations (GMPEs) relate ground motion intensity measures to variables describing earthquake source, path, and site effects. From many available GMPEs, we select those models recommended for use in seismic hazard assessments in ...

Ground Motion Prediction Equations for Malaysia Due to Subduction Zone Earthquakes in Sumatran Region

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2017
There has been numerous seismic hazard studies so far that includes Malaysian territories. However, there is a need to assess how reliable those studies are. Two main potential contributors to error have been identified: 1) seismic hazard analysis method

Bayesian inference of earthquake rupture models using polynomial chaos expansion [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2018
In this paper, we employed polynomial chaos (PC) expansions to understand earthquake rupture model responses to random fault plane properties. A sensitivity analysis based on our PC surrogate model suggests that the hypocenter location plays a ...
