Evaluasi Bahaya Gempa (Seismic Hazard) Dengan Menggunakan Metode Point Source Dan Penentuan Respons Spektra Desain Kota Kupang [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The earthquake which occurred at a site is caused by the release of energy from theepicenter, which then propagate to the location of the earthquake. The amount of energy tothe location will affect the magnitude earthquake that occurred.

Fifty years of research on the Joulters ooid sandbody—Impact on carbonate sedimentology and diagenesis and lessons learned from an invaluable analogue

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The Joulters ooid sandbody of northern Great Bahama Bank is a vast expanse of muddy ooid sands partly rimmed by clean ooid sands and formed into a relatively thick layer of significant extent. Knowledge of the development of depositional and diagenetic patterns in the Joulters example has forwarded our general understanding of carbonate sedimentology ...

A framework for probabilistic seismic risk assessment of NG distribution networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Lifelines are essential infrastructures for human activities and the economic developm ent of a region. Lifelines vulnerability reduction is an actual question, particularly with reference to NaTech events, like earthquakes.

Holocene development of submerged keep‐up patch reefs on Bermuda without acroporids: A model of future reef accretion

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Bermuda patch reefs development was primarily controlled by massive coral framework construction, and variation in environmental energy, turbidity and bioerosion. These factors shaped the size, diversity and preservation of the framework, leading to a suppressed, steady vertical accretion.

Seismicity and seismic hazard assessment in West Africa

open access: yesJournal of African Earth Sciences, 2021
No in-depth seismic hazard (SH) study for West Africa (WA) has ever been conducted, as the regional earthquake catalogues are incomplete. Such lack of comprehensive SH study has negatively affected planning and development of critical infrastructure and disaster risk management in WA.

Simplified Estimation of Economic Seismic Risk for Buildings [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

A continuous 500‐year sediment record of inundation by local and distant tsunamis in South‐Central Chile (40.1°S)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Tsunami events over the past 500 years inundated Laguna Gemela West (Chile), leading to distinct sandy deposits in the lake record. This provides a complete perspective on tsunami inundation, including giant tsunamis, small local tsunamis and tsunamis that originated >100 km away from the site.

Seismic hazard of the Granada fault [PDF]

open access: yesCuaternario y Geomorfología, 2013
The City of Granada is placed at the margin of a flat area known as the Granada Basin (Betic Cordillera, SE Spain) surrounded by mountains. The seismic activity in the Granada Basin is high, with a large number of earthquakes, all of them of moderate to low magnitude (Mb≤5.5).

Seismic performance of concrete tunnel–sand–pile interaction by the shake table test

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This research presents the square root sum of squares response of displacements and tunnel moments under the Kobe and Loma Prieta seismic excitations with a peak ground acceleration of 0.05 g for various dry relative densities of local sand in Bangladesh.

Risco sísmico na Região Nordeste do Brasil

open access: yesRevista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
O território brasileiro apresenta baixa atividade sísmica, característica de região tectônica intra-placas. Entretanto, os efeitos dos sismos não podem ser simplesmente desconsiderados em projetos de engenharia.
