Seismic vulnerability analysis of steel buildings in Bogotá, Colombia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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]

open access: yes, 2014
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

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.

Integration of HVSR measures and stratigraphic constraints for seismic microzonation studies: the case of Oliveri (ME) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.
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 ...

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.

Multimethod Geophysical Imaging of Intermontane Basins: The Case Study of Cascina and Palarzano Plains (Central Apennines, Italy)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geophysics, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
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 ...
