Abstract:

Disasters can occur without warning and severely test society’s capacity to cope, significantly altering the relationship between society and the built and natural environments. The scale of a disaster is a direct function of the pre-event actions and decisions taken by society. Poor pre-event planning is a major contributor to disaster, while effective pre-event planning can substantially reduce, and perhaps even avoid, the disaster. Developing and undertaking effective planning is therefore a vital component of disaster risk management in order to achieve meaningful societal resilience. Disa

Abstract:

<p> Federal, state and local officials are planning for a (M) 7.8 San Andreas Earthquake Scenario in the Southern California Catastrophic Earthquake Response Plan that would require initial emergency food and water resources to support from 2.5 million to 3.5 million people over an eight-county region in Southern California. However, a model that identifies locations of affected populations—with consideration for social vulnerability, estimates of their emergency logistical resource requirements, and their resource requirements over time—has yet to be developed for the emergency re

Abstract:

2011/2012<br>Seismic hazard assessment can be performed following a neo-deterministic approach (NDSHA), which allows to give a realistic description of the seismic ground motion due to an earthquake of given distance and magnitude. The approach is based on modelling techniques that have been developed from a detailed knowledge of both the seismic source process and the propagation of seismic waves. This permits to define a set of earthquake scenarios and to simulate the associated synthetic signals without having to wait for a strong event to occur. NDSHA can be applied at different geographic

Abstract:

Egypt is a country with mainly moderate seismicity; it has witnessed strong earthquake impacts along its long history from far-field sources and earthquake impacts from the local. The occurrence of these destructive earthquakes ensures the importance of carrying out a reliable and comprehensive characterization of expected seismic ground shaking, which is essential in order to develop effective seismic mitigation strategies and increase earthquake preparedness for Egypt. So, reliable seismic hazard maps that computed based on correct data and methodology should be prepared for building codes a

Abstract:

A seismic hazard assessment was carried out for the Catania and Siracusa towns providing a comprehensive re-examination and re-processing of all the available seismic data. The site approach and the seismotectonic one were used and compared. The hazard assessment, using both methods, was performed following a logic-tree approach in order to consider and reduce the epistemic uncertainties. The combined use and comparison of these approaches is recommended since it allows to verify the robustness of the hazard estimates and allowed us to obtain useful elements to define the seismic hazard in Cat

Abstract:

Seismic design, analysis and retrofitting of structures demand an intensive assessment of potential ground motions in seismically active regions. Peak ground motions and frequency content of seismic excitations effectively influence the behavior of structures. In regions of sparse ground motion records, ground-motion simulations provide the synthetic seismic records, which not only provide insight into the mechanisms of earthquakes but also help in improving some aspects of earthquake engineering. Broadband ground-motion simulation methods typically utilize physics-based modeling of source

This dissertation work concerns the effects of earthquake source geometry on nearfield ground-motions.

Listric faults are defined as curved faults in which dip decreases with depth, resulting in a concave upwards profile. The profiles in this study are created by applying a specific sh

Recent earthquakes have highlighted that the consideration of isolated seismic events, although necessary, may not be sufficient to prevent building collapse. In fact, the occurrence of a large number of aftershocks with significant intensity, as well as the occurrence of tsunamis, fires, and explosions, poses a safety threat that has not been addressed properly in the design and assessment of building structures over the last decade. Although research has been developed in order to evaluate the impact of multiple and/or cascading hazards in structural safety and economical losses, there is no

While current practice typically relies on crash-based analysis after the fact to diagnose safety problems and provide corrective countermeasures on roads, surrogate measures of safety are emerging as a complementary evaluation that can allow engineers to proactively respond to safety issues. These surrogate measures attempt to address the primary limitations of crash data, which include underreporting, lack of reliable insight into the events leading to the crash, and long data colle

In planning the design of structures in a region of potential seismic activity, a specification of the “strength” of the earthquake ground motion, or the most likelihood ground motion level, is needed. The earthquake occurrence, and its effects, is described as a stochastic process. Thus its realization is linked to state variables defined over a a known space through a continuous function. The Ground Motion Predictive Equation (GMPE) realize this function and, despite its shortcoming as an effective design tool to control damage (Priestly, 2003), it is still the most widely used representatio
