Seismic risk quantification and GIS-based seismic risk maps for Dubai-UAE_Dataset. [PDF]
Data Brief, 2021 The data provided in this article quantifies the potential seismic losses in multi-story buildings located in Dubai, UAE. Besides, it developed GIS-based seismic risk maps, which form essential inputs towards the seismic resilience of buildings. The GIS data described herein come from different sources.

Seismic risk maps for the seismic risk management and reduction
Procedia Structural Integrity, 2023 The paper illustrates the seismic risk maps computed by the Authors for the residential building stock of Italy by using a general framework specifically set up for mapping seismic risk for a generic asset of interest. Seismic risk maps are computed taking into account a seismogenic model of the analyzed area, and properly characterizing vulnerability ...

Seismic hazard and risk in Bhutan [PDF]
Natural Hazards, 2020 We present the first modern seismic hazard and risk assessment in the Bhutan Himalaya. We used a fault-based probabilistic seismic hazard analysis based on fault locations, slip-rates, and paleoseismic earthquake data. We worked with two seismic intensity measures: the peak-ground acceleration (PGA) and Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI).

Seismic risk mapping for Germany [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2006 Abstract. The aim of this study is to assess and map the seismic risk for Germany, restricted to the expected losses of damage to residential buildings. There are several earthquake prone regions in the country which have produced Mw magnitudes above 6 and up to 6.7 corresponding to observed ground shaking intensity up to VIII–IX (EMS-98).

Fractal Seismicity and Seismic Risk [PDF]
Izvestiya, Physics of the Solid Earth, 2020 Recently, attempts have been made to take into account the fractal properties of seismicity when mapping the long-term rate of earthquakes. The paper touches upon the theoretical aspects of fractality and provides a critical analysis of its applications to the problems of seismic ...

Simplified Estimation of Economic Seismic Risk for Buildings [PDF]
, 2004 A seismic risk assessment is often performed on behalf of a buyer of commercial buildings in seismically active regions. One outcome of the assessment is that a probable maximum loss (PML) is computed.

A framework for probabilistic seismic risk assessment of NG distribution networks [PDF]
, 2016 Lifelines are essential infrastructures for human activities and the economic developm ent of a region. Lifelines vulnerability reduction is an actual question, particularly with reference to NaTech events, like earthquakes.
