An efficient methodology to estimate probabilistic seismic damage curves [PDF]
, 2019 The incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) is a powerful methodology that can be easily extended for calculating probabilistic seismic damage curves. These curves are metadata to assess the seismic risk of structures.

Helioseismic analysis of the solar flare-induced sunquake of 2005 January 15 [PDF]
, 2006 We report the discovery of one of the most powerful sunquakes detected to date, produced by an X1.2-class solar flare in active region 10720 on 2005 January 15.

Seismic Energy from Explosions [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 1960 Summary For underwater explosions it is shown that the amplitude of the first arrival of the ground wave should be proportional to W2/3 where W is the charge weight. Also that its frequency content should be independent of W. Of the total chemical energy of the explosive it is estimated that about 3 per cent is available in the frequency range 0–100

Transformation seismology: composite soil lenses for steering surface elastic Rayleigh waves. [PDF]
, 2016 Metamaterials are artificially structured media that exibit properties beyond those usually encountered in nature. Typically they are developed for electromagnetic waves at millimetric down to nanometric scales, or for acoustics, at centimeter scales. By

On the stress drop in North Eurasia earthquakes source-sites versus specific seismic energy [PDF]
Геосистемы переходных зон, 2020 A generalization of the results on the stress drop and the specific seismic energy for the earthquakes in Northern Eurasia has been made. The relationship of these parameters with the seismic moment and the magnitude has been analyzed.

The physics of earthquakes [PDF]
, 2004 Earthquakes occur as a result of global plate motion. However, this simple picture is far from complete. Some plate boundaries glide past each other smoothly, while others are punctuated by catastrophic failures.

Modelling strong seismic ground motion: three-dimensional loading path versus wavefield polarization [PDF]
, 2012 Seismic waves due to strong earthquakes propagating in surficial soil layers may both reduce soil stiffness and increase the energy dissipation into the soil.

A review of COHRISK: Multihazard risk quantification software for nuclear power plants
Nuclear Engineering and TechnologyA combination of more than one natural hazard can occur simultaneously by their inherent correlation or by coincidence. One well-known multihazard incident, the Tohoku earthquake-tsunami in Japan 2011, led to a core damage accident at the Fukushima ...
