Critical Infrastructures such as hospitals, power stations and communication centers play a
crucial role in the performance of economy and society. Over the last few decades, the …

Subduction zone earthquakes result in some of the most devastating natural hazards on
Earth. Knowledge of where great (moment magnitude M≥ 8) subduction zone earthquakes …

In this study, we develop stochastic random-field slip models for the 2011 Tohoku
earthquake and conduct a rigorous sensitivity analysis of tsunami hazards with respect to …

Traditionally, building‐level disaster risk reduction (DRR) measures are aimed at a single
natural hazard. However, in many countries the society faces the threat of multiple hazards …

An effective evacuation of buildings is critical to minimize casualties due to natural or
anthropogenic hazards. Building evacuation models help in preparing for future events and …

This study introduces an advanced community-level resilience analysis methodology
integrating 3D fragility surfaces for combined successive earthquake-tsunami hazard and …

Very large tsunamis are associated with low probabilities of occurrence. In many parts of the
world, these events have usually occurred in a distant time in the past. As a result, there is …

An increasing number of offshore wind farms are being constructed in seismic regions over
liquefaction susceptible soils. This paper presents a methodology for the analysis and …

As major disasters vary in both severity and incidence, making appropriate humanitarian
responses critical, disaster relief supply chains increasingly incorporate both social and …

Tsunami damage, fragility, and vulnerability functions are statistical models that provide an
estimate of expected damage or losses due to tsunami. They allow for quantification of risk …
