Seismic hazard maps of Peshawar District for various return periods [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2020
Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis of Peshawar District has been performed for a grid size of 0.01∘. The seismic sources for the target location are defined as the area polygon with uniform seismicity.

Deterministic Seismic Hazard Analysis in Thailand using Active Fault Data

International Journal of Technology, 2016
To develop seismic design criteria for buildings, seismic hazard analysis is required to estimate the ground motion intensity with criteria such as peak ground acceleration (PGA).

Seismic hazard analysis by neo-deterministic seismic hazard analysis approach (NDSHA) for Kosovo

Applied Rheology, 2023
It is favorable to re-evaluate the seismic hazard for a given territory, since in the course of time new methods are developed and new data are gathered that can enable more sophisticated (physically sound) and reliable assessment of the seismic hazard ...

From repair costs and casualties to human displacements in the aftermath of an earthquake. The case of buildings with and without pre-existing damage exposed to a Mw 7.1 scenario in the Messina Strait, Italy

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
In seismic risk assessment, expert-elicited collapse factors are used to estimate casualties (injuries and fatalities). However, these approaches often overlook buildings’ pre-existing (pre-earthquake) deterioration.

Seismicity and seismic hazards

, 2001
Many earthquakes occur along Canada's western margin near the edge of the North American Plate, but others occur within the plate in Arctic and southeastern Canada. Damaging earthquakes have occurred throughout history in both Eastern and Western Canada, and will undoubtedly recur in the future.

Slip distributions on active normal faults measured from LiDAR and field mapping of geomorphic offsets: an example from L'Aquila, Italy, and implications for modelling seismic moment release [PDF]

, 2015
Surface slip distributions for an active normal fault in central Italy have been measured using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), in order to assess the impact of changes in fault orientation and kinematics when modelling subsurface slip distributions ...

Seismic hazard evaluation

Bulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2000
This paper reviews concepts and trends in seismic hazard characterization that have emerged in the past decade, and identifies trends and concepts that are anticipated during the coming decade. New methods have been developed for characterizing potential earthquake sources that use geological and geodetic data in conjunction with historical seismicity ...

Potential seismic landslide hazard and engineering effect in the Ya’an-Linzhi section of the Sichuan-Tibet transportation corridor, China

China Geology, 2023
: The Sichuan-Tibet transportation corridor is located at the eastern margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, where the complex topography and geological conditions, developed geo-hazards have severely restricted the planning and construction of major ...
