The Italian approach to seismic microzonation
Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2020 Seismic microzonation represents a basic tool for local administrations in the developing of cost-effective risk reduction strategies and emergency planning. In recent years, the Italian scientific community has been deeply involved in implementing best-practices and tools to make seismic microzonation studies affordable by allowing its widespread ...

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 ...

Seismic microzoning of Štip in Macedonia [PDF]
Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2017 Seismic microzonation maps for Štip (Macedonia) and its surroundings are presented based on the uniform-hazard-spectrum (UHS) methodology. Such mapping satisfies the guidelines for performance- based design (PBD), which requires specification of two sets of spectral amplitudes—one for which the structure will remain essentially linear, and the other ...
