Regional Risk Assessment of Earthquake-triggered Landslides [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Risk Analysis and Crisis Response (JRACR), 2015
Great earthquakes occurring in mountainous areas can trigger large-scale landslides, leading to serious geological disasters. Thus, in recent years, especially after the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, much attention has been focused on the research about ...

Improved seismic hazard model with application to probabilistic seismic demand analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
An improved seismic hazard model for use in performance-based earthquake engineering is presented. The model is an improved approximation from the so-called 'power law' model, which is linear in log-log space. The mathematics of the model and uncertainty

Seismic risk assessment for developing countries : Pakistan as a case study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Modern Earthquake Risk Assessment (ERA) methods usually require seismo-tectonic information for Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA) that may not be readily available in developing countries.

Seismic Hazard Assessment of Offshore Platforms [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2019
This paper examines the effects of pile-soil-structure interaction on the dynamic response of offshore platforms under the action of near-fault earthquakes. Two offshore platforms models are investigated, one with completely fixed supports and one with piles which are clamped into deformable layered soil.

Seismic hazard assessment of the Shillong Plateau using a probabilistic approach

open access: yes, 2020
Seismotectonic processes of the Shillong Plateau (SP) have been influenced by the Himalayan orogeny, the India-Burmese subduction, and the Bengal Basin evolution leading to high seismic activity in the region.

A hybrid model for mapping simplified seismic response via a GIS-metamodel approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In earthquake-prone areas, site seismic response due to lithostratigraphic sequence plays a key role in seismic hazard assessment. A hybrid model, consisting of GIS and metamodel (model of model) procedures, was introduced aimed at estimating the 1-D ...

Comparing observed damages and losses with modelled ones using a probabilistic approach: the Lorca 2011 case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A loss and damage assessment was performed for the buildings of Lorca, Spain, considering an earthquake hazard scenario with similar characteristics to those of a real event which occurred on May 11th, 2011, in terms of epicentre, depth and magnitude ...

Seismic Hazard in Greece: A Comparative Study for the Region of East Macedonia and Thrace

open access: yesGeoHazards, 2023
Greece is located in one of the most seismically active regions in Europe. Many seismic hazard studies have been performed for various sites around Greece, at a regional or local scale.
