What is Detailed Seismic Zoning?
Issue:
read more

The concept of the detailed seismic zoning (DSZ) is presented. DSZ’ purposes and problems are determined, as well as the methods of solving the DSZ’ problems. The relation of DCZ with other types of seismic zoning, such as the general seismic zoning and microzoning, is defined.

Forecasting Methods of Seismic Ground Motion Parameters Estimation Including Local Spectrum and Related Synthetic Accelerogram Formation
Issue:

The basic methods of assigning the earthquake effects are described. It is shown that the empirical estimations of seismic ground motion parameters without any assumptions, suppositions and pre-selected mathematical expressions have the highest accuracy. The methods of specific site spectra and the related synthetic accelerograms are described. The criteria of synthetic accelerogram fitness are presented.
