Abstract Nakamura (Q Rep Railway Tech Res Inst 30: 25–33, 1989) popularized the
application of the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) analysis of microtremor …

In the last two decades, the horizontal-to-vertical (H/V) spectral ratio of seismic noise
technique has been widely used for site-effect estimation and geophysical exploration …

The integration of geophysical methods, together with the previous information of the Vallès
basin area, has resulted in the creation of a new conceptual model that explains La Garriga …

This study employs a multimethod approach to investigate the sediment distribution in two
pocket beaches, Ramla Beach and Mellieha S Beach, in Malta. Both study sites were …

Reliable knowledge of sediment thickness is beneficial for investigating buried active faults
and improving seismic hazard assessments, especially in regions with recent strong …

This paper presents a high-level overview of site characterization, risk analysis and
monitoring priorities for underground energy-related product storage or sequestration …

The faults and fractures are known as two of the most important parameters in earthquake
occurrence. During the construction in urban areas, faults and fractures may be covered in …

In recent years, shield tunneling has shown many advantages with the development of
underground rail traffic. Geological exploration plays a significant role in tunnel engineering …

Following the installation of a temporary seismological network in western Greece north of
the Gulf of Patras, we determined the quality of the sites of each of the 10 stations in the …

H/V spectral ratios are regularly used for estimating the bedrock depth in 1-D like basins
exhibiting smooth lateral variations. In the case of 2-D or 3-D pronounced geometries …
