Abstract:
The present work aims to assess the large-scale seismic vulnerability of a set of 55 reinforced concrete educational establishments of different typologies (approximately 516 constructions) located within the urban perimeter of the city of Mostaganem. Among them, 328 buildings were constructed in accordance with the Algerian seismic regulation (built after 1980), while 188 constructions were built without a seismic design code (built before < 1980). This classification corresponds to the application/creation of this regulation following a major earthquake in Chlef (El Asnam) in 1980. Using

Abstract:
Damage scenarios are necessary tools for stakeholders, in order to prepare protection strategies and a total emergency post-earthquake plan. To this aim, four seismic hazard models were developed for the city of Kalamata, according to stochastic simulation of the ground motion, using site amplification functions derived from ambient noise HVSR measurements. The structural vulnerability of the city was assessed following an empirical macroseismic model, developed for the European urban environment (EMS-98).

An earthquake is the most destructive natural phenomenon, with its sudden onset and rapid spread impacting large areas.

Even if the use of this method in a probabilistic environment requires a relevant computational effort, it should be the reference method for seismic risk evaluation.

During the last two decades, the rapid urbanization movement has increased the concentration of population and buildings in Ulaanbaatar city (UB), Mongolia. There are several active faults around UB.

To consider the disaster mitigation planning for such large earthquakes, assessments of ground shaking intensities and building damage for the scenarios are crucial. In this study, we develop the building inventory data in UB, including str

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to describe a multi-scenario assessment of the seismogenic tsunami hazard for Bangladesh from active subduction zones in the Indian Ocean region. Two segments of the Sunda arc, namely, Andaman and Arakan, appear to pose a tsunamigenic seismic threat to Bangladesh. Design/methodology/approach High-resolution numerical simulations of tsunami propagation toward the coast of Bangladesh have been carried out for eight plausible seismic scenarios in Andaman and Arakan subduction zones. The numerical results have been analyzed to obtain the spatial variation of the maximum tsu

Research on seismic microzonation of Semarang is still ongoing. The first seismic microzonation research for this area was performed on 2015. Seismic microzonation map was developed by implementing deterministic 1-D site response analysis at 190 boring locations. Lasem fault was considered to be the main earthquake source which taken into account for seismic microzonation research of Semarang. The second research for developing seismic microzonation map was performed on 2016.

In coordination with the surface geological survey, Chashan site can be divided into three potential sliding areas (zones A, B and C).

Abstract:
The Nankai Trough Earthquake, which is estimated to have a 70%–80% probability of occurring within the next 30 years, necessitates considering various scenarios due to the extensive seismic source region and call for advancing disaster preparedness measures. Assessing direct damage caused by earthquakes is considered particularly challenging compared to assessing human and physical damage due to its intricate composition. However, the existing research in model analysis aimed at real-time estimation has yielded results, namely, the ability to promptly calculate direct damage from earthquakes u

Abstract:
The seismic intensity experienced indoors directly reflects the degree of damage to the internal structure of the building. The current classification of indoor strength relies on manual surveys and qualitative descriptions of macro phenomena, which are subjective, unable to capture real-time dynamic changes in the room, and lack quantitative indicators. In this paper, we present the Image Evaluation of Seismic Intensity (IESI) method, which is based on image processing technology. This method mainly evaluates the degree of responses from objects by identifying the percentage of movement of di

Abstract:
This paper describes a method of extracting the relation between the ground-motion characteristics of each area and a seismic source model, based on ground-motion simulation data output in planar form for many earthquake scenarios, and the construction of a parallel distributed processing system where this method is implemented. The extraction is realized using two-stage clustering. In the first stage, the ground-motion indices and scenario parameters are used as input data to cluster the earthquake scenarios within each evaluation mesh. In the second stage, the meshes are clustered based on t

The interest in assessing seismic risk in earthquake-prone regions in Morocco has been increasing over recent decades, to a large extent due to the substantial amount of damage imposed by recent events and because the population in these regions has grown significantly. In this context, the present study is aimed to contribute to the understanding of seismic risk in the urban areas of the Rif region, one of the most seismically active zones of Morocco, through the development and analysis of 36 building models representative of this area.

We outline some recent research advances on the control of elastic waves in thin and thick plates, that have occurred since the large scale experiment [S. Brûlé, Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 133901 (2014)] that demonstrated significant interaction of surface seismic waves with holes structuring sedimentary soils at the meter scale. We further investigate the seismic wave trajectories of compressional body waves in soils structured with buildings. A significant substitution of soils by inclusions, acting as foundations, raises the question of the effective dynamic properties of these structured soils.

For each considered scenario rupture, ensembles of 20 and 7 ground motions are selected using the generalized conditional intensity measure (GCIM) approach, ensuring that the ground motion ensembles represent both the mean and distribution of gro

Through the use of nonlinear time-history analysis, the displacement patterns of bridges subjected to transverse seismic attack are investigated. The variables considered in the study consist of bridge geometry, superstructure stiffness, substructure strength and stiffness, abutment support conditions, and earthquake ground motion. A series of three inelastic displacement pattern scenarios were identified: (1) rigid body translation (2) rigid body translation with rotation, and (3) flexible pattern.
