A hybrid model for mapping simplified seismic response via a GIS-metamodel approach [PDF]
, 2014 In earthquake-prone areas, site seismic response due to lithostratigraphic sequence plays a key role in seismic hazard assessment. A hybrid model, consisting of GIS and metamodel (model of model) procedures, was introduced aimed at estimating the 1-D ...
