Deterministic Seismic Hazard Assessment [PDF]

, 1999
Using the available information about regional structural models, past seismicity, and the seismotectonic regime in Italy, we have generated a set of synthetic seismograms covering the whole Italian territory on a 0.2° × 0.2° grid. Peak values of ground motion (displacement, DMAX, and velocity, VMAX) and Design Ground Acceleration (DGA) based on ...

Seismic hazard assessment in Belgium

Geologica Belgica, 2001
The seismic hazard assessment has been conducted on the Belgian territory conforming to Eurocode 8, the European earthquake building code. The study was performed using the seismological database of the Royal Observatory of Belgium and the publications and open reports available for geological and geophysical data.

Seismic landslide hazard assessment using improved seismic motion parameters of the 2017 Ms 7.0 Jiuzhaigou earthquake, Tibetan Plateau

Frontiers in Earth Science
Seismic landslide hazard assessment plays a very important guiding role during urgent earthquake relief. In August 2017, an Ms 7.0 earthquake in Jiuzhaigou County, Sichuan Province, China, triggered thousands of landslides.

Time-dependent probabilistic seismic hazard assessment and its application to Hualien City, Taiwan [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013
Here, we propose a time-dependent probabilistic seismic hazard assessment and apply it to Hualien City, Taiwan. A declustering catalog from 1940 to 2005 was used to build up a long-term seismicity rate model using a smoothing Kernel function.

Comparative analysis of the seismic hazard of Central China [PDF]

, 2008
Seismic hazard assessment is globally recognised as a tool in identifying levels of earthquake ground shaking within an area. However, methodologies for seismic hazard calculation are wide ranging and produce variations in results and maps.

Assessment of Liquefaction Hazard for Sites in Romania Using Empirical Models

Infrastructures, 2023
This paper is focused on the evaluation of the liquefaction hazard for different sites in Romania. To this aim, a database of 139 ground motions recorded during Vrancea intermediate-depth earthquakes having moment magnitudes MW ≥ 6.0 is employed for the ...

NEW SEISMIC SOURCE ZONE MODEL FOR PORTUGAL AND AZORES [PDF]

, 2010
The development of seismogenic source models is one of the first steps in seismic hazard assessment. In seismic hazard terminology, seismic source zones (SSZ) are polygons (or volumes) that delineate areas with homogeneous characteristics of seismicity ...

The probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Germany—version 2016, considering the range of epistemic uncertainties and aleatory variability

Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2018
The basic seismic load parameters for the upcoming national design regulation for DIN EN 1998-1/NA result from the reassessment of the seismic hazard supported by the German Institution for Civil Engineering (DIBt).

Garigliano nuclear power plant: seismic evaluation of the turbine building [PDF]

, 2011
The Italian Garigliano Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) started its energy production in 1963. At present it is in the decommissioning stage. In order to get a proper management of the radioactive waste that will be produced during the dismantling operations it

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

, 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.
