Abstract:

India is a vast country that is growing even faster. Particularly over the last decade, there has been a sudden spurt in the construction activity in the country, especially in the large low-to-moderate seismic regions of the country. But, no systems are in place to regulate these massive constructions to ensure seismic safety. This paper raises the challenges in the current practice and provides measures to overcome them. In particular, the paper argues for separate provisions for the design and construction of structures in low-tomoderate seismic regions.

Abstract:

The promising seismic response emerged by the concept of base isolation leads to increasing practical applications into buildings located at low-to-moderate seismicity regions. However, it is questionable that their collapse capacities can be ensured with reasonable reliability, although they would be designed according to a current seismic design code. This paper aims to investigate the collapse capacities of isolated buildings governed by the prescribed design criteria on the displacement and strength capacities of the employed isolation systems. In order to evaluate their collapse capacity

Abstract:

The need for earthquake-resistant construction in areas of low-to-moderate seismicity has been recognized through the adoption of code requirements in the United States and other countries only in the past quarter century. This is largely a result of improved assessment of seismic hazard and examples of recent moderate earthquakes in regions of both moderate and high seismicity, including the San Fernando (1971), Mexico City (1985), Loma Prieta (1989), and Northridge (1994) earthquakes.

Australia is a country of low to moderate seismicity with a number of Magnitude 6.8 events recorded and a moderate 5.6 magnitude event in Newcastle in 1989 that killed 13 people and caused in excess of $2 Billion damage. A new design response spectrum has been developed for Australia which has a very good representation of accelerations, velocities and displacements for rock and soft soil sites.

Abstract:

The United States contains regions of greatly varying seismicity ranging from a relatively narrow strip of very high seismicity along coastal California in the West to broad areas of low or moderate seismicity typical of the Central and Eastern United States. The United States currently has three major regional model building codes. While all three codes have traditionally used the concept of seismic zones to identify and distinguish between regions of different seismicity, they have not had a consistent basis for their seismic criteria. Beginning in the year 2000, the three model building cod

Abstract:

Mainland France is characterized by low-to-moderate seismic activity, yet it is known that major earthquakes could strike this territory (e.g., Liguria in 1887 or Basel in 1356). Assessing this French seismic hazard is thus necessary in order to support building codes and to lead prevention actions towards the population. The Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA) is the classical approach used to estimate the seismic hazard. One way to apply PSHA is to generate synthetic earthquakes by propagating information from past seismicity and building various seismic scenarios. In this paper,

Extensive geological investigations identified five fault sources with a non-zero probability of being seismogenic.

In Texas, although recorded earthquakes are of low-to-moderate magnitude, the rate of seismicity has been increasing since 2009. Because of the newly developed Texas Seismological Network, in most parts of Texas, recent seismicity is reported on a daily basis with a magnitude of completeness of ML 1.5. Also, funded research has allowed the collection of O&G Op information that can be associated with seismicity. Although in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, recent seismicity has

SUMMARY Seismicity along subduction interfaces is usually dominated by large main-shock–aftershock sequences indicative of a continuum distribution of highly coupled large asperities. In the past decades, however, the increased resolution of seismic catalogues at some subduction zone seems to indicate instead a more complex rheological segmentation of the interface. Large and megathrust earthquake ruptures seem interspersed among regions of low seismic coupling and less stress buildup. In this weaker zone, the strain is primarily released via a combination of moderate-size swarm-like seismicit

Abstract:

AbstractDeception Island volcano (South Shetland Islands, Antarctica) has been monitored in summer surveys since 1994. We analyse the seismicity recorded from 1999–2011 with a local network and seismic arrays. It includes long-period (LP) events, volcanic tremor episodes and volcano-tectonic (VT) earthquakes. Long-period events are conspicuous, ranging from 58 (2007–08) to 2868 events (2003–04). The highest number of LP events in one day is 243 on 2 February 2001, and there are several discrete periods of intense LP activity. These variations may be related to alterations in the shallow hydrot

Abstract:

Abstract The pattern of seismicity in eastern Canada depends on the presence of weak zones from previous major tectonic orogenies and how these weak zones are reactivated by local and regional stress fields and geophysical processes. Within the Canadian Shield, away from seismotectonic trends, there is a low level of seismicity and earthquakes tend to be small, less than M5. However, along seismically active trends, earthquakes as large as M7 have occurred. The seismotectonic features fall into four main categories: positive (uplift) continental basement linears; grabens formed by old plate se

Abstract:

As the forefront of inland extension on the Indian plate, the northeastern Tibetan Plateau, marked by low strain rates and high stress levels, is one of the regions with the highest seismic risk. Analyzing seismicity through statistical methods holds significant scientific value for understanding tectonic conditions and assessing earthquake risk. However, seismic monitoring capacity in this region remains limited, and earthquake frequency is low, complicating efforts to improve earthquake catalogs through enhanced identification and localization techniques.

Abstract:

To explore the effect of the cut-off magnitude on the declustering of earthquake sequences, the calculation of seismicity parameters, the earthquake occurrence rate, and the hazard level of North China at present, we employed a stochastic declustering method based on the spatio-temporal ETAS model to decluster under different the cut-off magnitudes. And we have undertaken comprehensive research on the declustered distribution characteristics, seismicity parameters, and earthquake occurrence rates. The research results show that the selections of the cut-off magnitudes can lead to certain diffe

Abstract:

In the design of reinforced concrete (RC) beams located in low-moderate seismicity regions, adequate flexural deformability apart from flexural strength to cater for the imposed seismic demand should be designed. As per the existing RC design codes, this is achieved by restricting the maximum neutral axis depth or tension steel ratio, or limiting the minimum confining steel. However, these deemed-to-satisfy rules were derived many years ago based on normal-strength concrete and steel, which would impair the deformability when applied directly to RC beams made of high-strength materials.

Abstract:

AbstractIn the past couple of decades, Operational Earthquake Forecasting (OEF) has been proposed as a way of mitigating earthquake risk. In particular, it has the potential to reduce human losses (injuries and deaths) by triggering actions such as reinforcing earthquake drills and preventing access to vulnerable structures during a period of increased seismic hazard. Despite the dramatic increases in seismic hazard in the immediate period before a mainshock (of up to 1000 times has been observed), the probability of a potentially damaging earthquake occurring in the coming days or weeks remai

Abstract:

Research and evaluation of past and recent seismic records is required in order to obtain an overall picture of the seismic history of a given region. To this aim, important information can be collected through the study of monuments and the damage that they may have experienced during their history. Consequently, the archaeological reports on a hitherto unknown earthquake of the Is' century B.C. in Pella (northern Greece) are particularly interesting. These reports are based on the findings that came to light after the excavations of I.Akamatis in the region where the ancient town of Pella wa
