Seismic Fragility Assessment of Special Truss Moment Frames (STMF) Using the Capacity Spectrum Method [PDF]
Civil Engineering Infrastructures Journal, 2015 Fragility curves represent the probabilities that structural damages, under various levels of seismic excitation, will exceed the specified damage states by means of earthquake intensity damage relations.

Assessing infrequent large earthquakes using geomorphology and geodesy in the Malawi Rift [PDF]
, 2015 In regions with large, mature fault systems, a characteristic earthquake model may be more appropriate for modelling earthquake occurrence than extrapolating from a short history of small, instrumentally observed earthquakes using the Gutenberg–Richter ...

Coda-derived source properties estimated using local earthquakes in the Sea of Marmara, Türkiye [PDF]
Solid EarthAccurate estimates of the moment magnitude of earthquakes that physically measure the earthquake source energy are crucial for improving our understanding of seismic hazard in regions prone to tectonic activity. To address this demand, a method involving

Seismic structure and earthquake focal mechanisms of the Hengill volcanic complex, S W Iceland [PDF]
, 1996 Iceland provides a unique opportunity to study the processes that occur along mid- ocean ridges. In 1991, thirty temporary seismic stations were installed at the Hengill volcanic complex to record high-quality digital data from local earthquakes.
