During an earthquake the seismic wave amplification related to local site conditions can
have a significant impact on the ground motion. In order to account for these local effects …

Recent earthquakes have exposed the vulnerability of existing buildings; this is
demonstrated by damage incurred after moderate-to-high magnitude earthquakes. This …

Our study introduces a methodology to improve large-scale seismic damage assessment by
incorporating site-specific fragility curves, considering soil–structure interaction (SSI) and …

Large-scale risk analysis is typically performed considering existing fragility curves,
calculated in most cases without adequately accounting for local site amplification (SAmp) …

Seismic site amplification and seismic hazard maps are crucial inputs for decision making
and risk evaluation in places where seismicity imposes a significant risk to human life and …

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) encompasses quantitative estimation of
seismic hazard at a site by considering all plausible earthquake scenarios. The outcome of a …

ABSTRACT Gorkha earthquake (MW 7.8) of 25 April 2015 struck central, eastern and
western Nepal and neighbouring areas. Enormous losses during Gorkha earthquake were …

Seismic site effects are influenced mainly by geospatial uncertainties corresponding to
geological or geotechnical spatial variance. Therefore, the development of a geospatial …

To assess the seismic performance of slopes, the simplified displacement-based methods
represent a good-working balance between simplicity and reliability. The so-called …

This paper shows the results of a multidisciplinary research aimed at defining the seismic
microzonation of the district Bagnoli–Fuorigrotta in the Western part of Naples metropolitan …
