Objetivo This proposal brings some basic contributions both to fundamental (physics of he earthquake generation process and seismic wave propagation) and to the applied (estimates of seismic input time histories for civil engineering purposes) science. In particular, the estimate of the earthquake related ground motion is a basic requirement for the construction of damage scenarios, for the effective assessment of seismic hazard and or the proper re-evaluation, presently in progress, of the existing building codes such as EUROCODE8. The trainees will master a state-of-the-art procedure for the optimal fruition of the existing relevant geo technical and geological data, for the deterministic ground motion modelling, and or the construction at seismic hazard scenarios. Further improvements and applications to this procedure are planned, in particular to any high-risk (e.g. nuclear power plant or dam locations, urban environments etc.) area of EU member states and elsewhere.
