Comparison of vulnerabilities in typical bridges using macroseismic intensity scales

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
The macroseismic intensity scale in different regions is extensively assessed in the vulnerability assessment of building structures and is rarely used to quantify the damage characteristics of group bridges. To more accurately examine the differences in

Seismic hazard assessment for Iran in terms of macroseismic intensity

Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering
We present the results of probabilistic seismic hazard assessment for Iran based on a statistical procedure specifically developed to manage macroseismic intensity data.

Inhomogeneity of Macroseismic Intensities in Italy and Consequences for Macroseismic Magnitude Estimation [PDF]

Seismological Research Letters, 2021
AbstractWe show that macroseismic intensities assessed in Italy in the last decade are not homogeneous with those of the previous periods. This is partly related to the recent adoption of the European Macroseismic Scale (EMS) in place of the Mercalli–Cancani–Sieberg (MCS) scale used up to about one decade ago. The underestimation of EMS with respect to

Visualization of macroseismic parameters during examination of epicentral zones of strong earthquakes [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2021
The article discusses the fragile destruction of building materials during strong earthquakes, the features of the macroseismic effect of cracking expressed in the protective coatings of buildings; it is recommended to optimize the composition based on ...

The comparison of macroseismic intensity scales [PDF]

Journal of Seismology, 2009
The number of different macroseismic scales that have been used to express earthquake shaking in the course of the last 200 years is not known; it may reach three figures. The number of important scales that have been widely adopted is much smaller, perhaps about eight, not counting minor variants.

1921–2021: 100 years of macroseismic studies at BCSF

Comptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2021
The French Central Seismological Bureau (BCSF) was set up in Strasbourg in July 1921 by a governmental decision. Since then, BCSF is in charge of the macroseismic survey for the French territories.

Models of the macroseismic field earthquakes and their influence on seismic hazard assessment values for Central Asia

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
Seismic intensity assessment in points of a macroseismic scale plays an important role for researching the seismic history of areas characterized by active seismicity, as well as for construction (and updating) of seismic zoning maps in various scales ...

The attenuation of macroseismic intensity in the volcanic island of Ischia (Gulf of Naples, Italy): comparison between deterministic and probabilistic models and application to seismic scenarios

Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2023
In this paper, we tackle the problem of the intensity attenuation at Ischia, a critical parameter in a high seismic risk area such as this volcanic island.

New reversible relationships between ground motion parameters and macroseismic intensity for Italy and their application in ShakeMap

Geophysical Journal International, 2022
We derived new, reversible relationships between macroseismic intensity (I), expressed in either the European Macroseismic (EMS-98) or the Mercalli-Cancani-Sieberg (MCS) scales, and peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV) and the ...

Evaluation of macroseismic intensity, strong ground motion pattern and fault model of the 19 July 2019 Mw5.1 earthquake west of Athens

Journal of Seismology, 2021
This paper presents a joint analysis of instrumental and macroseismic data regarding the 19 July 2019, Greece Mw5.1 earthquake occurred west of Athens. This earthquake ruptured a blind, south-dipping normal fault, 23 km WNW of the center of Athens, while
