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

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

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Nepal using multiple seismic source models
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2018 The potential for devastating earthquakes in the Himalayan orogeny has long been recognized. The 2015 MW7.8 Gorkha, Nepal earthquake has heightened the likelihood that major earthquakes will occur along this orogenic belt in the future.

Regional Risk Assessment of Earthquake-triggered Landslides [PDF]
Journal 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 ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Kazakhstan and Almaty city in peak ground accelerations
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2018 As for many post-soviet countries, Kazakhstan's building code for seismic design was based on a deterministic approach. Recently, Kazakhstan seismologists are engaged to adapt the PSHA (probabilistic hazard assessment) procedure to the large amount of ...
