Instrumental intensity as a tool for post-earthquake damage assessment: validation for the strong Vrancea earthquakes of August 1986 and May 1990 [PDF]

The frequency-dependent spectrum based seismic intensity, also called instrumental intensity, is calculated basically from the integration of the square values of spectral acceleration ordinates. The values of the instrumental intensity are calibrated to

Seismicity and Ground Motion Simulations of the SW Iberia Margin [PDF]

, 2010
In this study, we focus on the region between Gorringe Bank and the Horseshoe Fault located in the SW Iberia margin, which is believed to be the site of the great 1755 earthquake.

Preliminary Test of Source Parameters of M_wp6 Italian Earthquakes: Revisiting Kinematic Function Method

Applied Sciences
Macroseismic intensity data are the only source of information for historical earthquakes; it is therefore necessary to devise methods that allow us to retrieve as many source parameters as possible on the basis of these data. We present the inversion of

An analytic method for separating local from regional effects on macroseismic intensity

Annals of Geophysics, 1995
nterpretation of macroseismic data is hazardous, due to its qualitative nature. This, linked with errors in eval- uation,) and the variations of local intensity, makes it difficult to draw valid conclusions.

The Irpinia (Italy) 1980 earthquake: waveform modelling of accelerometric data and macroseismic considerations

Annals of Geophysics, 1993
A detailed investigation, based on accelerometric and macroseismic data of the Irpinia 1980 event, is presented. The study is based on the use of synthetic seismograms, computed by the modal summation technique, and its purpose is to retrieve information concerning the rupturing process.

Bayesian analysisof a probability distribution for local intensity attenuation

Annals of Geophysics, 2004
Intensity attenuation and its variation as a function of the distance and earthquake size is still a critical issue in evaluating seismic hazard. We present a method that allows us to incorporate additional information from the historical earthquake felt
