Multi-scale seismicity model for seismic risk

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1997
AbstractFor a general use of the frequency-magnitude (FM) relation in seismic risk assessment, we formulate a multi-scale approach that relies on the hypothesis that only the ensemble of events that are geometrically small, compared with the elements of the seismotectonic regionalization, can be described by a log-linear FM relation.

Geomorphology and seismic risk

Earth-Science Reviews, 1991
Abstract The author analyses the contributions provided by geomorphology in studies suited to the assessment of seismic risk: this is defined as function of the seismic hazard, of the seismic susceptibility, and of the vulnerability. The geomorphological studies applicable to seismic risk assessment can be divided into two sectors: (a) morpho ...

Seismicity and Earthquake Risk In Portugal

2012
The workshop “Earthquake monitoring and Earthquake Risk in WEstern Mediterranean” (EERWEM) will summarize the current knowledge, on-going projects and research plans with regard to seismic activity and risk in the region. This work is organized in two topics: i) presentation of our current research on seismic activity and earthquake risk in the Western

Seismic risk in Fennoscandia

Tectonophysics, 1979
Abstract Seismic risk is calculated by means of recurrence periods, obtained from least squares relations between number of earthquakes and magnitude. This method is described and applied to Fennoscandia. The results, summarized in tabular form, give the seismic risk for 54 regions, each comprising 2° in latitude and 2° in longitude, and for the ...

Evaluation of Seismic Risk

1983
The last 15 years have seen a very rapid increase in the demand for earthquake resistant design of structures not only in the more seismic regions but also in the less earthquake prone areas of northwest Europe, where the engineering profession is being involved in an ever wider range of project types that require earthquake resistant design or ...

Seismic Risk Assessment

1995
Large earthquakes could potentially cause extensive property damage, loss of life, and environmental damage as a result of damage to critical facilities. Assessment of seismic risk to critical facilities such as nuclear power plants and chemical plants is not only important from the standpoint of a large capital investment but also because of potential

Seismic Risk Communication

2019
The chapter presents some aspects of the seismic risk communication within a systemic disaster management system (SDMS) model. Information and communication technology (ICT) plays a key part in managing natural disasters. An example of seismic risk preparedness for the case of preparatory schools in Mexico City has been used to illustrate this feature ...
