the objective of this paper is to determine the drift demand hazard curves of steel moment-resisting frames with different number of stories in territory of tehran this is done through the combination of the results obtained from probabilistic seismic hazard analysis and the demand estimated through the best probabilistic seismic demand models. to select the best demand model, in this paper, a ...

This paper presents a study on determining the degree of effectiveness of earthquake risk mitigation measures and how to prioritize such efforts in developing countries. In this paper a model is proposed for optimizing funds allocation towards risk reduction measures (building retrofitting) and reconstruction process after potential earthquakes in a regional level. The proposed model seeks opti...

The paper describes an integrated approach to seismic hazard assessment, which was applied for the Taiwan region. First, the theoretical seismic catalogue (2001-2050) for the Taiwan region had been calculated using the 4D-model (location, depth, time) for dynamic deformation of the Earth’ crust and 5D-model (location, depth, time, magnitude) for seismic process. The models were developed on the...

assessing seismic hazards involves specifying the likelihood, magnitude and location of earthquakes in a region. predicting the seismic hazards is the first step in reducing the impact of the damage caused by an earthquake.  in this study, to fully utilize all the known parameters which may possibly affect the occurrence of earthquakes (mb ≥ 4.5); a data-driven rule-extraction method called the...

This paper examines four methods by which ground motions can be selected for dynamic seismic response analyses of engineered systems when the underlying seismic hazard is quantified via ground motion simulation rather than empirical ground motion prediction equations. Even with simulation-based seismic hazard, a ground motion selection process is still required in order to extract a small numbe...

Bengkulu City is an area in Indonesia that has a high seismic intensity. This very vulnerable to undergo earthquakes. Therefore, there necessity study the hazard assessment this area. paper presents vulnerability based on ground response analysis combined with probabilistic assessment. The soil profiles around are investigated using geophysical survey by microtremor and analysis. motion of soft...
