Ground motion prediction maps using seismic-microzonation data and machine learning [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022
Past seismic events worldwide demonstrated that damage and death toll depend on both the strong ground motion (i.e., source effects) and the local site effects. The variability of earthquake ground motion distribution is caused by the local stratigraphic
