, 2023 The Global Seismic Risk Map (v2023.1) poster comprises three global maps, and a ranking of the top 15 countries according to five risk metrics. These results are an update of the global maps released in 2018, as described in Silva et al. (2020). The main map presents the geographic distribution of average annual loss of built-up area due to ground ...

Holistic Evaluation of Seismic Risk in Barcelona [PDF]
, 2014 Within the framework described in Chapter 1, this chapter shows the evaluation of the seismic risk of the city of Barcelona, Spain, by applying a probabilistic analysis. On this basis a holistic evaluation of risk is performed taking into account social fragilityand lack of resilience aspects.

Seismic reliability assessment of classical columns subjected to near-fault ground motions [PDF]
, 2013 A methodology for the performance-based seismic risk assessment of classical columns is presented. Despite their apparent instability, classical columns are, in general, earthquake resistant, as proven from the fact that many classical monuments have ...

Seismic history of the Maltese islands and considerations on seismic risk [PDF]
Annals of Geophysics, 2009 A historical catalogue of felt earthquakes in the Maltese islands has been compiled dating back to 1530. Although no fatalities were officially recorded during this time as a direct consequence of earthquake effects, serious damage to buildings occurred several times. In the catalogue time period, the islands experienced EMS-98 intensity

How linear features alter predator movement and the functional\ud response [PDF]
, 2012 In areas of oil and gas exploration, seismic lines have been reported to alter the movement patterns of wolves (Canis lupus). We developed a mechanistic first passage time model, based on an anisotropic elliptic partial differential equation, and used ...

TO THE ASSESSMENT OF SEISMIC RISK OF AREAS
Herald of Dagestan State Technical University. Technical Sciences, 2014 The main components of seismic risk areas are: seismic hazard, seismic vulnerability of the elements of building area, social and economic losses in the earthquake. Each of them depends on a large number of parameters, both the earthquake and buildings. One of the main object is the lack of earthquake resistance of buildings on the basis of which.
