Assessment of the Seismic Site Amplification in the City of Ivanec (NW Part of Croatia) Using the Microtremor HVSR Method and Equivalent-Linear Site Response Analysis

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
The city of Ivanec is located between valley of the Bednja River and Mt. Ivanščica and this area can be prone to significant seismic site amplification due to local site characteristics.

National‐scale Mapping of the Expected Earthquake Magnitude for Soil Liquefaction Triggering Analyses in Italy

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
This paper introduces a procedure to estimate moment magnitude (MW) in earthquake‐induced soil liquefaction probabilistic risk assessment. The method is based on using the historical seismicity modelled with a truncated Gutenberg‐Richter (G‐R) relation, jointly with an empirical model linking the MW to the maximum source‐to‐site distance at which soil ...

Seismic microzonation and soil-structure resonance analysis in Suryabinayak Municipality, Bhaktapur, Nepal: insights from ambient vibration measurements

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
Bhaktapur, lying in the Kathmandu Basin, suffered damages during the 2015 Gorkha Earthquake, potentially exacerbated by local site effects. This research addresses the lack of site response study on Suryabinayak Municipality, located in the southern part

Twenty‐Five Years of Probabilistic Fault Displacement Hazard Assessment

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Fault displacement hazard poses significant risks to critical infrastructure such as buildings, roads, and pipelines. While some structures can tolerate a certain degree of surface displacement, others, such as buildings, are far more vulnerable. Probabilistic Fault Displacement Hazard Assessment (PFDHA) quantifies the probability of exceeding

Softening and Recovery of Near‐Surface Layers During the 2024 M7.6 Noto Earthquake

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract On 1 January 2024, a devastating MJ 7.6 earthquake occurred on the Noto Peninsula in Japan. When such a strong earthquake occurs, affected near‐surface soil layers behave nonlinearly and may undergo some structural changes driven by Flow Liquefaction, Cyclic Mobility, or Slow Dynamics phenomena.
