Rapid seismic risk assessment

International Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction, 2017
This paper deals with seismic risk on the Croatian territory, especially since population growth in risk-prone areas increases the potential loss due to an earthquake. The net effects of such urbanization factors are examined through the use of simulation models that estimate building inventory under possible seismic hazard expressed with peak ground ...

THE USE OF SEISMIC RISK MAPS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SEISMIC RISK REDUCTION PROGRAMS

Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Computational Methods in Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering (COMPDYN 2015), 2019
Mapping seismic risk at the territorial scale is a key process in earthquake-prone countries since it allows to understand the spatial distribution of risk and its quantification in economic terms. Seismic risk maps can be used by governments to outline short-, mid- or long-terms risk mitigation and/or transfer actions. The present contribution aims to

A Seismic Risk Model for Italy

2016
All Italian territory, with the only exception of the island of Sardinia, is subject to seismic events, making this threat a major concern for decision makers in charge for the implementation of risk reduction policies. Seismic risk vary greatly across the country and within single administrative regions.

Seismic Hazard vs. Seismic Risk

Seismological Research Letters, 2009
The world is full of uncertainties, ranging from climate change, financial markets, natural disasters, terror attacks, and personal health to the measurements of the most fundamental elements of all: time and space. Dealing with uncertainty is a given in life, and any decision is always made under a certain degree of uncertainty.

Seismic risk mitigation

2003
The irregularity and long time intervals between earthquakes are factors contributing to reduced awareness about earthquake risks among the public and government officials and hence to reduced allocation of resources for their mitigation. Moreover, it is not uncommon to see misallocation of resources by non- knowledgeable decision makers and ...

Seismic Risk and Evaluation

2023
This chapter introduces the main indicators able to describe and evaluate in a rapid manner the seismic risk of housing buildings considered in this manuscript. The weakness of buildings is evaluated based on their probability of collapse and extent of damages while transformability evaluations are performed evaluating the effectiveness of retrofitting

Microearthquakes and seismic risk

Geologiska Föreningen i Stockholm Förhandlingar, 1978
Abstract This paper is presented in the nature of a review of the potential of microearthquake surveys in seismotectonic studies, particularly seismic-risk analyses. Microearthquakes are generally considered as shocks with magnitude less than 3.
