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 ...
