Remote structural characterization of thousands of buildings from San Jose, Costa Rica

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2022
The present work shows the implementation of a data collection strategy for characterizing large amounts of buildings efficiently by the conduction of remote surveys on 360° panoramic images and aerial photographs. A set of 7,296 buildings from the Latin

Seismic hazard and risk in Bhutan [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards, 2020
We present the first modern seismic hazard and risk assessment in the Bhutan Himalaya. We used a fault-based probabilistic seismic hazard analysis based on fault locations, slip-rates, and paleoseismic earthquake data. We worked with two seismic intensity measures: the peak-ground acceleration (PGA) and Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI).

Stress field sensitivity analysis in a sedimentary sequence of the Alpine foreland, northern Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2015
The stress field at depth is a relevant parameter for the design of subsurface constructions and reservoir management. Yet the distortion of the regional stress field due to local-scale features such as sedimentary and tectonic structures or topography ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis of the North-East India towards identification of contributing seismic sources

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2023
The North East (NE) India is regarded as one of the most seismically active regions of the globe. It is surrounded by two active plate boundaries (the Indian-Eurasian Plate boundary and the Indian-Burmese plate boundary), followed by rotation in the ...

The crustal stress field of Germany: a refined prediction

open access: yesGeothermal Energy, 2022
Information about the absolute stress state in the upper crust plays a crucial role in the planning and execution of, e.g., directional drilling, stimulation and exploitation of geothermal and hydrocarbon reservoirs.

Site Amplification Analysis of Dushanbe City Area, Tajikistan to Support Seismic Microzonation

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
Being a country exposed to strong seismicity, the estimation of seismic hazard in Tajikistan is essential for urbanized areas, such as the rapidly growing capital city Dushanbe. To ensure people’s safety and adequate construction work, a detailed seismic
