Risk‐Targeted Seismic Design Maps for Mexico
ABSTRACT Risk‐targeted seismic design maps for Mexico are presented. Risk‐targeted approach establishes an acceptable risk level, measured with the annual collapse probability, to determine seismic design coefficients. Seismic design maps are calculated for an annual probability of collapse of 1 × 10−4 and 2 × 10−4.

Effects of Surface Geology on Seismic Ground Motion Deduced from Ambient-Noise Measurements in the Town of Avellino, Irpinia Region (Italy) [PDF]
The effects of surface geology on ground motion provide an important tool in seismic hazard studies. It is well known that the presence of soft sediments can cause amplification of the ground motion at the surface, particularly when there is a sharp ...

Abstract Ongoing climate change is leading to an increase in prolonged droughts and severe weather events, which are particularly pronounced in semi‐arid regions, such as the western United States. These extremes could have lasting social and environmental impacts.

Experimental Seismic Response Assessment of Tall Buildings With Large Mass Damping
ABSTRACT This paper describes an experimental investigation into the seismic performance of a novel integrated damping system. The proposed damping concept mobilises a portion of the building's own mass to generate damping from its differential motion relative to the lateral load‐resisting system.

Selection of ground motion prediction equations for the global earthquake model [PDF]
Ground motion prediction equations (GMPEs) relate ground motion intensity measures to variables describing earthquake source, path, and site effects. From many available GMPEs, we select those models recommended for use in seismic hazard assessments in ...

Abstract Ground motion models (GMMs) are critical for seismic risk mitigation and infrastructure design. Machine learning (ML) is increasingly applied to GMM development due to expanding strong motion databases. However, existing ML‐based GMMs operate as “black boxes,” creating opacity that undermines confidence in engineering decisions.

The 30 m top layer of soil as the medium of propagation of the earthquake wave is the closest to the structure of the building, and could have different effects depending on the type of soil and topography. The Indonesian earthquake code for building and

ABSTRACT In this study, we provide the first field‐based assessment of the seismic potential of the Te Puninga Fault, Hauraki Plains, Waikato region. Initially considered to be part of the nearby Kerepehi Fault, our new mapping and field data suggest the Te Puninga Fault is independent.
