earthquake engineering in earthquake hazard analysis. Explore the issues faced in seismic hazard assessments for the areas of interest on case studies of recent earthquakes. Learn the procedures which can be directly applied in practice (e.g., reinsurance industry), as well as current topics of the basic geophysical research with high public importance. |

Instrumental seismology Accelerometric networks. Strong motion databases. Magnitudes. Instrumental catalogue.
Ground motion parameters Peak values of acceleration, velocity, displacement - their use. Response spectra and relation to Fourier spectra. Random vibration theory and inverse random vibration theory (RVT, resp. IRVT).
Ground motion prediction Ground motion prediction equations (GMPE). Analysis of uncertainties. Source - path - local effects.
Local site effects Geophysical and geotechnical site (MASW, CPT, ambient vibrations). Microzonation. Non-linear site response. Numerical modeling of site effects. Secondary phenomena (soil liquefaction, landslides).
Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) Seismic source zonation. Probability distributions of earthquake sizes and ground shaking levels. Time occurrence probability distributions of seismic events. Epistemic vs. aleatory uncertainties. Logic trees. Deaggregation of PSHA. Earthquake scenarios.
Seismic risk and building codes Ground shaking vs. structural damage. Design spectra. Uniform hazard spectrum. |
