Earthquake Mitigation in the Lisbon and Lower Tagus Valley area, Portugal [PDF]
, 2013 The capital city of Lisbon and the Lower Tagus Valley region of central Portugal mainland are located in the Eurasian plate about 350 Km from the approximately E-W oriented Eurasia-Africa plate boundary. It is characterized by low slip-rates (

Vs30 Derived from Geology: An Attempt in the Province of Quebec, Canada
GeotechnicsThe influence of local site conditions is important when assessing the distribution of building damage and seismic risk. The average shear-wave velocity of the top 30 m of soil, Vs30, is one of the most commonly used parameters to characterize site ...

Vs30 Prediction Models Based on Measured Shear-Wave Velocities in Tangshan, China
Sustainability, 2023 Vs30 (equivalent shear-wave velocity of soil layers within a depth of 30 m underground) is widely used in the field of seismic engineering; however, due to the limitation of funds, time, measuring devices, and other factors, the depth for testing shear ...

Distribution of Vs30 in Poso kota sub-district
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020 AbstractPoso District, has three faults namely poso fault, tokararu fault and poso west fault, so this area needs to be conducted a seismic hazard assessment to reduce the risk of earthquake disaster, especially in densely populated areas. The research was focused in Poso Kota District.

Application of Single-Station Sigma and Site-Response Characterization in a Probabilistic Seismic-Hazard Analysis for a New Nuclear Site [PDF]
, 2014 Aleatory variability in ground-motion prediction, represented by the standard deviation (sigma) of a ground-motion prediction equation, exerts a very strong influence on the results of probabilistic seismic-hazard analysis (PSHA).

Evaluation of a Fast Proxy of Vs30 (Vs30m)
, 2022 Abstract The most frequent parameter used to quantify seismic site response in ground motion models is time-averaged shear wave velocity in the top 30 m of a site (Vs30), used by many engineering design codes and most recently by published empirical-scaling equations to estimate the amplitudes of strong ground motion. The current study explores

Taxonomy of κ: A review of definitions and estimation approaches targeted to applications [PDF]
, 2014 In a way perhaps not dissimilar to stress drop (Atkinson and Beresnev, 1997), the high-frequency attenuation parameter κ (kappa), introduced by Anderson and Hough (1984), is one of the most used yet least understood or agreed-upon parameters in ...

Earthquake Hazard Analysis Use Vs30 Data In Palu
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2018 Palu City is an area passed by Palu-Koro fault and some small faults around it, causing the Palu of city often hit by earthquake. Therefore, this study is intended to mapped the earthquake hazard zones. Determination of this zone is one of aspect that can be used to reducing risk of earthquake disaster.
