Seismic Risk Analysis of Revenue Losses, Gross Regional Product and transportation systems. [PDF]
, 2013 Natural threats like earthquakes, hurricanes or tsunamis have shown seri- ous impacts on communities. In the past, major earthquakes in the United States like Loma Prieta 1989, Northridge 1994, or recent events in Italy like L’Aquila 2009 or Emilia 2012 ...

Earthquake Source Depth Determination Using Single Station Waveforms and Deep Learning
Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract In areas with limited station coverage, earthquake depth constraints are much less accurate than their latitude and longitude. Traditional travel‐time‐based location methods struggle to constrain depths due to imperfect station distribution and the strong trade‐off between source depth and origin time.

An energy-based envelope function for the stochastic simulation of earthquake accelerograms [PDF]
, 2009 An energy-based envelope function is developed for use in the stochastic simulation of earthquake ground motion. The envelope function is directly related to the Arias intensity of the ground motion as well to the manner in which this Arias intensity is ...

An investigation of PSHA sensitivity with focus on Finland
, 2022 We describe the SENSEI project conducted on the initiative of STUK, the Radiation and Nuclear safety Authority of Finland. The project aimed at exploring the sensitivity of probabilistic seismic hazard outputs to different choices of input parameters, based on the seismicity data available in Finland.

Seismic hazard disaggregation in performance-based earthquake engineering: occurrence or exceedance? [PDF]
, 2015 Seismic hazard disaggregation is commonly used as an aid in ground-motion selection for the seismic response analysis of structures. This short communication investigates two different approaches to disaggregation related to the exceedance and occurrence

Hazard-consistent response spectra in the Region of Murcia (Southeast Spain): comparison to earthquake-resistant provisions [PDF]
, 2008 Hazard-consistent ground-motion characterisations of three representative sites located in the Region of Murcia (southeast Spain) are presented. This is the area where the last three damaging events in Spain occurred and there is a significant amount of ...
