Width of surface rupture zone for thrust earthquakes: implications for earthquake fault zoning [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018
The criteria for zoning the surface fault rupture hazard (SFRH) along thrust faults are defined by analysing the characteristics of the areas of coseismic surface faulting in thrust earthquakes.

Preliminary seismic microzonation map of the City of Zagreb (Croatia)

open access: yesJournal of Maps
The aim of this study was to create a preliminary seismic microzonation map of the administrative area of the City of Zagreb (Croatia). Geophysical measurements collected in the southern and eastern part of Zagreb were used together with geophysical data available for the northern part of the city. Their analysis and comparison with the geological data

State‐of‐the‐Art Seismic Studies of Loess Tunnels in China

open access: yesAdvances 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 ...

Enhancing Seismic Performance: A Comprehensive Study on Masonry and Reinforced Concrete Structures Considering Soil Properties and Environmental Impact Assessment

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Approximately 20,000 people are killed annually on average by building and infrastructure collapses and failures caused by seismic activities. In earlier times, seismic design codes and specifications set minimal requirements for life safety performance levels. Earthquakes can be thought of as recurring events in seismically active areas, with severity
