Onderzoek door studenten naar voorkeursbeleid voor MKB bij herstel van de aardbevingsschade.

Een Hanze minor die aangeboden wordt aan studenten van de opleidingen Bouwkunde, Civiele Techniek en Vastgoed en Makelaardij. Mijn rol is het geven van colleges en het toetsen van studenten via opdrachten over de sociaalmaatschappelijke gevolgen van aardbevingen en aardbevingsschade in Noord-Oost Groningen. …

Land use or land-use changes can trigger or generate hazards and affect the potential consequences of these hazards. Deforestation can trigger land slides, for example, and land reclamation or levee construction can increase flood hazards downstream. New dwellings in or near forests can trigger wildfires, …

It is historically a fact that Turkey experiences frequent earthquakes, on the order of one damaging earthquake of magnitude 6–7 approximately every 2 years, causing extensive losses to economy, life and limb. Every strong earthquake leaves behind poverty and tens of thousands of homeless people. In …

Assessment of the seismic vulnerability of the building stock in the earthquake-prone Marmara region of Turkey is of growing importance since such information is needed for reliable estimation of the losses that possible future earthquakes are likely to induce. The outcome of such loss assessment exercises …

A damage estimation exercise has been carried out using the building stock inventory and population database of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality and selected European earthquake loss estimation packages: KOERILOSS, SELENA, ESCENARIS, SIGE, and DBELA. The input ground-motions, common to all models, …

Seismic risk assessment of two real RC multi-story buildings, located on similar soil profile in Kocaeli, is conducted in respect to code-based linear and nonlinear approaches, as well as to P25-v2 Method, a recently suggested method for risk evaluation and preliminary assessment of existing buildings …

DBELA is a Displacement-Based Earthquake Loss Assessment methodology for urban areas which relates the displacement capacity of the building stock to the displacement demand from earthquake scenarios. The building stock is modeled as a random population of building classes with varying geometrical and …

Based on the soil data established previously by a team of researchers at the Technical University of Istanbul, a wave amplification study is conducted for the town of Avcılar, Istanbul, located at about 120 km west of the epicentre of the Kocaeli earthquake of August 17, 1999. It is determined, through …
