Active faults are generally defined as faults that have moved in the past and will continue to
be active in the future. They are expected to cause deformation and potential disasters if …

Neotectonics and active tectonics are sub-disciplines of tectonics that study the process of
recent tectonic deformation and tectonic geomorphic evolution on the Earth. The time scale …

We present the compilation of a new database of active faults in Slovenia, aiming at
introducing geological data for the first time as input for a new national seismic hazard …

Active faults are those faults on which movement is possible in the future. It draws particular
attention to active faults in geodynamic studies and seismic hazard assessment. Here we …

We present a methodology for map** faults that constitute a potential hazard to structures,
with an emphasis on ground shake hazards and on surface rupture nearby critical facilities …

The activity of a cree** active fault poses significant challenges to engineering structures
due to surface deformation. Therefore, quantifying the strain concentration caused by an …

In this paper we deal with statistical features of earthquakes, seeking possible correlations
between the Gutenberg–Richter magnitude distribution and the short-term clustering in an …

Abstract On May 20 and 29, 2012, two earthquakes of magnitudes 5.9 and 5.8 (Mw),
respectively, and their aftershock sequences hit the central Po Plain (Italy), about 40 km …

This paper first reviews why the potential occurrence of the Tohoku-oki earthquake with
momentum magnitude M w of 9.0 earthquake was not anticipated by Japanese …

Estimation of seismogenic potential through geological studies of faults is an important step
in seismic hazard evaluation and mitigation. We investigated the Katrol Hill Fault (KHF), an …
