Simplified Estimation of Economic Seismic Risk for Buildings [PDF]
, 2004 A seismic risk assessment is often performed on behalf of a buyer of commercial buildings in seismically active regions. One outcome of the assessment is that a probable maximum loss (PML) is computed.

Seismic Hazard Assessment [PDF]
, 2020 Seismic hazard means the possibility of a strongest ground motion taking place in a specified area during a given time interval. Because earthquake occurrence in time, location and magnitude are random, the probabilistic method is a reasonable choice for seismic hazard assessment.

Interpreting intraplate tectonics for seismic hazard : a UK historical perspective [PDF]
, 2012 It is notoriously difficult to construct seismic source models for probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in intraplate areas on the basis of geological information, and many practitioners have given up the task in favour of purely seismicity-based ...

Valuation of extinction parameters of anisotropic macro-seismic wave intensities
Геофизический журнал, 2014 A method is proposed for calculating the parameters of macroseismic intensity decay of anisotropic fields. Macroseismic field are described by the model of Blake-Shebalin to the attenuation depending on the azimuth direction «epicenter-point-score ...

Probabilistic Seismic‐Hazard Assessment for Eritrea [PDF]
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2017 To date little is known about seismic hazard in Eritrea, despite its location in a volcanically and tectonically active region, and the gathering pace of major infrastructure projects. In response, we report the findings of a comprehensive probabilistic seismic‐hazard assessment for Eritrea and adjacent areas.

Seismic assessment of plain concrete arch bridges by three dimensional simulation using geometrical and mechanical properties [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2018 There are numerous old arch bridges in Iran that have been used as railway bridges for more than seventy years. Since most of these bridges are not designed for earthquake excitation, seismic vulnerability of these structures is uncertain.
