Seismic microzonation of Mashhad city, northeast Iran [PDF]
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).

Probabilistic approach for seismic microzonation integrating 3D geological and geotechnical uncertainty [PDF]
Earthquake Spectra, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 310-334, February 2023., 2023 A novel probabilistic methodology for regional seismic site characterization is proposed and applied to a region with highly heterogeneous surficial geology and varying soil sediment thickness and stiffness. The method combines various sources of geological and geotechnical uncertainties to develop a three‐dimensional (3D) shear‐wave velocity (Vs ...

Simple Method to Develop Seismic Microzonation Maps for Cities in Northern Haiti and Elsewhere [PDF]
International Journal for Service Learning in Engineering, Humanitarian Engineering and Social Entrepreneurship, 2015 Many developing nations are situated in zones of high seismicity where earthquakes can lead to widespread property loss and loss of life. Similar-sized earthquakes are not nearly as devastating in developed nations because of access to state-of-practice engineering methods.

Italian seismic amplification factors for peak ground acceleration and peak ground velocity
Journal of Maps, 2022 Ground motion modification over large areas is generally evaluated by focusing on source effects disregarding local lithostratigraphic site conditions. Hence, amplification maps of peak ground acceleration and peak ground velocity are proposed to improve
