Abstract Transport infrastructures, such as bridges, located in seismically active regions are potential exposure due to seismic hazards. A bridge collapse can have tremendous consequences because they provide vital links a transportation system. Cross border region historically is very well known territory characterized with high risk. For that purpose, this study related the identification of...

Seismic modeling aids the geophysicists to have a better understanding of the subsurface image before the seismic acquisition, processing, and interpretation. In this regard, seismic survey modeling is employed to make a model close to the real structure and to obtain very realistic synthetic seismic data. The objective of this study is to analyze the resolution and illumination of the fault by...

iran is located in an area with high earthquake risk. there are over 20 active faults with length of 500 km and also densely populated parts of the country have been rendered vulnerable to strong earthquakes. however, existence of eight faults of the main faults of iran along with at least 18 faults with length of more than 100 km in kerman province have turned the place into one of the riskies...

In current research quantifying loss potentials for German city regions basic tools for GIS-based seismic risk assessment technologies have been developed and applied to the building stock and regional particularities of German earthquake regions. Different study areas with comparable levels of seismic hazards were investigated, but they had varying numbers of inhabitants and degrees of urbaniz...
