The application of simulation software has proven to be a crucial tool for tsunami hazard assessment studies. Understanding the potentially devastating effects tsunamis leads development safety and resilience measures, such as design evacuation plans or planning economic investment necessary quickly mitigate their consequences. This article introduces pseudo-probabilistic seismic-triggered appr...

Abstract The design of critical facilities needs a targeted computation the expected ground motion levels. Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) is pipeline that transports natural gas from Greek-Turkish border, through Greece and Albania, to Italy. We present here probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) we performed for this facility, deaggregation results, aiming identify dominant sources select...

The Gulf of Corinth (Central Greece) is one the most rapidly extending rifts worldwide, with its western part being seismically active, hosting numerous strong (M ? 6.0) earthquakes that have caused significant damage. main objective this study was evaluation seismic hazard through a probabilistic and stochastic methodology. implementation three seismotectonic models in form area source zones v...

Abstract A general methodology to evaluate vulnerability functions suitable for a probabilistic global risk assessment is proposed. The methodology is partially based in the methodological approach of the Multihazard Loss Estimation Methodology (Hazus) developed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The vulnerability assessment process considers the resolution, information and limi...

Within the last three decades, twelve major earthquakes (Mw > 6.0) have jolted Pakistan and contributed to a heavy death toll an economic loss of billions dollars, which is immense for any underdeveloped country. Despite generalized description seismic hazards in various regions Pakistan, densely populated cities still require detailed integrated vulnerability analysis overcome impact signif...

Iran is located in a seismically active region and exposed to seismic activity from many seismic sources and active faults. Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment is the basis for many pre and postearthquake risk management issues. Definition and parameterization of active faults and seismic sources are among the most important aspect for reliable PSHA studies. In this paper an effort in desig...
