Shear modulus reduction and damping ratios curves joined with engineering geological units in Italy [PDF]
Scientific Data, 2023 Numerical simulations of seismic site response require the characterization of the nonlinear behaviour of shallow subsoil. When extensive evaluations are of concern, as in the case of seismic microzonation studies, funding problems prevent from the ...

Single-station seismic microzonation using 6C measurements. [PDF]
J Seismol, 2021 AbstractMicrozonation is one of the essential tools in seismology to mitigate earthquake damage by estimating the near-surface velocity structure and developing land usage plans and intelligent building design. The number of microzonation studies increased in the last few years as induced seismicity becomes more relevant, even in low-risk areas.
