Reliable Seismic Hazard Assessment and Earthquake Engineering

334 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book celebrates the scientific legacy of Professor Giuliano F. Panza. His groundbreaking development of Neo-Deterministic Seismic Hazard Assessment (NDSHA), which resulted in the Panza-Rugarli empirical law, has reshaped how researchers model earthquake ground motion through physically realistic, transparent, and reproducible methodologies. The volume brings together nineteen scholarly contributions from international researchers whose work extends, enhances, or has been directly inspired by Professor Panza's methodologies and mentorship. Organized into theoretical frameworks and practical case studies, the chapters explore seismic-wave modelling, lithospheric structure, NDSHA applications, earthquake engineering, and multi-hazard interactions.This book is intended for seismologists, geophysicists, earthquake engineers, hazard-assessment practitioners, graduate students, and policymakers seeking a deeper understanding of physics-based seismic hazard approaches.Key Features: - Celebrates the illustrious career and invaluable contributions of Professor Giuliano F. Panza. - Includes contributions by well-known scientists in the field. - Presents state-of-the-art knowledge in this area. - Covers a large scope of topics. - Addresses researchers, engineers and university graduate students.
