International 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 ...

Seismic microzonation of Mashhad city, northeast Iran
Annals of Geophysics, 2011 Mashhad city has a substantial risk of earthquakes due to the potential of the underlying soft soils to amplify ground motions. It is therefore imperative to conduct detailed seismic hazard assessment of the area (seismic microzonation).

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 1215-1234, May 2024.One‐dimensional (1D) site response analysis (SRA), which considers vertically propagating seismic waves from the bedrock to the surface, has been a common technique among geotechnical engineers to examine site‐specific ground shaking. However, observations from past earthquakes and analytical studies indicate that idealizations ingrained in 1D SRA may ...

State‐of‐the‐Art Seismic Studies of Loess Tunnels in China
Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Large earthquakes occur frequently around the world. Due to the fragility of loess, the effects of seismic events on loess tunnel projects have received considerable in‐depth research attention. In this paper, we systematically review recent seismic research on loess tunnels and highlight deficiencies that require further study with a focus on the ...
