   5 days ago · A building’s physical vulnerability to earthquakes describes its susceptibility to damage that can be caused by a given ground-motion Intensity Measure (IM). The purpose of seismic vulnerability assessment is to estimate the damage level (in a deterministic or a probabilistic way) induced to a given building typology due to a given level of ...

3. People also ask

   What scale is used to measure the magnitude of an earthquake?

   • The scale commonly used to measure the magnitude of an earthquake is the Richter Magnitude Scale. Intensity is based on the observed effects of ground shaking on people, buildings, and natural features. It varies from place to place within the disturbed region depending on the location of the observer with respect to the earthquake epicenter.

   What is the difference between intensity and magnitude of an earthquake?

   • The severity of an earthquake can be expressed in terms of both intensity and magnitude. However, the two terms are quite different, and they are often confused. Magnitude is related to the amount of seismic energy released at the hypocenter of the earthquake.

   How do I report a seismic intensity report to PHIVOLCS?

   • Another android application is the Tool for Seismic Intensity Reporting (ToSIR) where anyone can report intensity reports to PHIVOLCS as they feel it. The data allows PHIVOLCS to verify ground shaking simulation results.

   What is modified Mercalli intensity scale?

   • It varies from place to place within the disturbed region depending on the location of the observer with respect to the earthquake epicenter. The Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale is used to equate a number with the observable, experienced effects caused by an earthquake.

   17 hours ago · In this study, we took a close look at the Ocean Networks Canada’s earthquake early warning system in southwestern British Columbia through analysis of the magnitude estimates by this system and characterization of site conditions for both onshore and offshore stations. Using magnitude values estimated at each station, over hundreds of notifications, we provided station terms to correct the ...
