Physically based ground‐motion prediction equations for soil and rock sites in the Zagros
region have been developed based on the specific barrier model (SBM) used within the …

This article analyses postcards depicting disasters in the early years of the 20th Century. At
that time, postcards were common means of communicating everyday matters throughout …

In recent decades, the seismic behavior of steel and steel reinforced concrete buildings has
been, in many cases, unsatisfactory. In fact, after the 1989 Loma Prieta, 1994 Northridge and …

We simultaneously estimated Qp− 1 and Qs− 1 by applying the extended coda-
normalization method at 39 stations of three local networks in the East-Central Iran. We …

A nonparametric generalized inversion technique (GIT) has been used to derive attenuation
characteristics, source parameters and site amplification effects from S wave spectra of the …

The M w 6.1 Silakhour earthquake occurred on 31 March 2006 in the Zagros region of Iran. It
was preceded by two relatively large foreshocks of mb 4.8 and 5.2 on 30 March and …

The aim of this study is to develop the knowledge about attenuation characteristics of
seismic body waves in the west of Iran plateau using extended coda normalization method …

Attenuation of P and S waves has been investigated in Alborz and north central part of Iran
using the data recorded by two permanent and one temporary networks during October 20 …

In order to better understand the attenuation characteristics in the crust of the central and
western Tien Shan orogenic belt, we investigate both Q p and Q s values by applying the …

In this study, new empirical relations are proposed to determine the Fourier amplitude
spectrum of acceleration. The FASAs form the white-noise spectrum in the stochastic ground …
