Seismic microzonation of Mashhad city, northeast Iran

Annals of Geophysics, 2011
Mashhad city has a substantial risk of earthquakes due to the potential of the underlying soft soils to amplify ground motions. It is therefore imperative to conduct detailed seismic hazard assessment of the area (seismic microzonation).

Seismic microzoning in Skopje, Macedonia [PDF]

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2017
Seismic microzonation maps for Skopje (Macedonia) are presented based on the Uniform-Hazard-Spectrum (UHS) methodology. UHS satisfies the guidelines for performance-based design (PBD), which require specification of two sets of spectral amplitudes, one for which the structure will remain essentially linear, and the other for which it will undergo a ...
