Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Kazakhstan and Almaty city in peak ground accelerations

open access: yesGeodesy 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 ...

Model of seismic hazard of the northwestern part of the Black Sea

open access: yesГеофизический журнал, 2012
Characteristics of seismic hazard assessment of marine areas have been considered. Modeling of seismic hazard of northwestern part of the Black Sea shelf is made on the basis of the developed models of seismicity, seismic sources, attenuation of the ...

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

open access: yes, 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.

Seismic hazard assessments for El Salvador

open access: yesGeofísica 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.

Seismic Resilience Assessment of a Regional Bridge Network

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluates the seismic resilience of a regional bridge network, focusing on the interconnectedness and interdependence among individual bridges and emergency facilities. A framework for resilience assessment is developed and applied to a bridge network in Vancouver, British Columbia, consisting of 11 bridges across seven main routes.

Seismic Design of Steel Chevron and Split‐X Concentrically Braced Frames

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper aims to (1) investigate how various design parameters affect seismic response of steel chevron and split‐X braced frames, (2) advance understanding of their seismic behaviour and (3) propose new system‐specific guidelines for accurately estimating their seismic demands and for achieving enhanced seismic performance.

Experimental Characterization of a Full‐Scale Stair System Detailed to Achieve Seismic Resiliency

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stair systems are the primary means of egress in and out of a building during and after an earthquake. Therefore, it is essential to detail these critical nonstructural systems such that they remain operable during and after an earthquake of moderate to high levels of intensity.
