Seismic Hazard and Risk Analysis, Hardback Book

Hardback

Description

Seismic hazard and risk analyses underpin the loadings prescribed by engineering design codes, the decisions by asset owners to retrofit structures, the pricing of insurance policies, and many other activities.

This is a comprehensive overview of the principles and procedures behind seismic hazard and risk analysis.

It enables readers to understand best practises and future research directions.

Early chapters cover the essential elements and concepts of seismic hazard and risk analysis, while later chapters shift focus to more advanced topics.

Each chapter includes worked examples and problem sets for which full solutions are provided online.

Appendices provide relevant background in probability and statistics.

Computer codes are also available online to help replicate specific calculations and demonstrate the implementation of various methods.

This is a valuable reference for upper level students and practitioners in civil engineering, and earth scientists interested in engineering seismology.
