Seismicity and plate tectonics of the Eastern Caribbean
(2010-06-21)
The distribution of earthquakes in the Caribbean region closely follows the Greater and Lesser Antillean island chain and the coast of Venezuela. This zone is interpreted as one of differential movement between two separate ...
A New State-of-the-Art Platform for Probabilistic and Deterministic Seismic Hazard Assessment
(2019)
A new computational platform for seismic hazard assessment is presented. The platform, named SeismicHazard, allows characterizing the intensity, uncertainty, and likelihood of ground motions from subduction-zone (shallow ...
New developments for the performance-based assessment of seismically-induced slope displacements
(2020-11)
This study presents new developments for the performance-based assessment of seismically-induced slope displacements (D). Performance-based procedures enable a hazard-consistent and rational seismic design of slope systems; ...
Performance-based assessment of the seismic pseudo-static coefficient used in slope stability analysis
(2020)
Pseudo-static slope stability procedures are often employed to evaluate the seismic performance of geotechnical slope systems, at least in the initial evaluation stages. To yield meaningful results, these methods should ...
Carácter oscilatorio de la geodinámica endógena reciente sismogeneradoras en zonas cubanas
(1987)
Las investigaciones morfoestructurales y geodinámicas realizadas en la zona sismogeneradora de articulación entre la depresión "graben" de Santiago de Cuba y la meseta monoclinal de Boniato revelaron el carácter oscilatorio ...
