Seismic hazard assessments for El Salvador

Geofísica Internacional, 1996
Se describe la evolución de las normas sísmicas en El Salvador, incluyendo un enfoque probabilística en la norma vigente. Se compara esta última norma con tres trabajos anteriores y se atribuyen las discrepancias a diferencias en cada paso de la estimación y no únicamente en las relaciones de atenuación.

Developing a global risk engine [PDF]

, 2010
Risk analysis is a critical link in the reduction of casualties and damages due to earthquakes. Recognition of this relation has led to a rapid rise in demand for accurate, reliable and flexible risk assessment software.

Approach for combining fault and area sources in seismic hazard assessment: application in south-eastern Spain

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018
. This paper presents a methodological approach to seismic hazard assessment based on a hybrid source model composed of faults as independent entities and zones containing residual seismicity.

Assessment of seismic sources and capable faults through hierarchic tectonic criteria: implications for seismic hazard in the Levant

, 2020
. We present a methodology for mapping faults that constitute a potential hazard to structures, with an emphasis on ground shake hazards and on surface rupture nearby critical facilities such as dams and nuclear power plants.

Development of an open-source platform for calculating losses from earthquakes [PDF]

, 2012
Risk analysis has a critical role in the reduction of casualties and damages due to earthquakes. Recognition of this relation has led to a rapid rise in demand for accurate, reliable and flexible risk assessment numerical tools and software.

Extending displacement-based earthquake loss assessment (DBELA) for the computation of fragility curves [PDF]

, 2012
This paper presents a new procedure to derive fragility functions for populations of buildings that relies on the displacement-based earthquake loss assessment (DBELA) methodology.

Ultra-thin clay layers facilitate seismic slip in carbonate faults [PDF]

, 2017
Many earthquakes propagate up to the Earth's surface producing surface ruptures. Seismic slip propagation is facilitated by along-fault low dynamic frictional resistance, which is controlled by a number of physico-chemical lubrication mechanisms.
