Seismic vulnerability analysis of steel buildings in Bogotá, Colombia [PDF]
A number of mid-height steel buildings have been erected recently in Bogotá. Their seismic risk might be high, given the new microzonation of Bogotá and the lack of previous studies; remarkably, the response reduction factors were commonly obtained from ...

Seismic site characterization of the Kastelli (Kissamos) Basin in northwest Crete (Greece): Assessments using ambient noise recordings [PDF]
Crete is actively seismic and site response studies are needed for estimating local site conditions subjected to seismic activity. In order to collect basic data, we performed ambient noise recordings to estimate the site response of the surface and near

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

Integration of HVSR measures and stratigraphic constraints for seismic microzonation studies: the case of Oliveri (ME) [PDF]
Because of its high seismic hazard the urban area of Oliveri has been subject of first level seismic microzonation. The town develops on a large coastal plain made of mixed fluvial/marine sediments, overlapping a complexly deformed substrate. In order to

3D Shear‐Wave Velocity and Density Modeling of the Northern Cascadia Subduction Zone
Abstract In the Northern Cascadia Subduction Zone (NCSZ), we developed a new 3D model for shear‐wave velocity (VS) and density to improve seismic hazard assessments and ground motion simulations. Utilizing seismic data from the past two decades, we measure surface wave dispersion from ambient noise and earthquake recordings and inverted them for VS ...

A novel and integrated geophysical approach has been applied at Cascina and Palarzano plains (Abruzzi region, Central Apennines, Italy) to investigate their subsurface structure with particular attention to the faults bounding the basins. Both plains are characterized by the highest magnetic anomaly intensity measured over the Abruzzi region (up to 10 ...
