Development of the New Zealand Community Fault Model – version 1.0
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
There has been a long-identified need in New Zealand for a community-developed three-dimensional fault model that is accessible and available to all. Over the past year, work has progressed on building and parameterising ...
The national seismic hazard model for New Zealand: Contributions from the deep south
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
The New Zealand National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) is being updated for the first time since 2010 in a multi-institutional project led by GNS Science (www.gns.cri.nz/NSHM). In the interim, several major well-instrumented ...
The 2022 New Zealand National Seismic Hazard Model Revision
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
We are embarking on the most significant revision of the NSHM in more than 20 years. An international team of more than 50 scientists is contributing to two working groups: 1) Seismicity Rate Models (SRM); and 2) Ground ...
Wellington basin amplification: research goals and update from the National Seismic Hazard Model Programme
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
In Wellington, 3D basin amplification effects observed at 1 – 2 second spectral periods were identified as one factor likely to have exacerbated damage to mid-rise structures during the 2016 Mw 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake ...
Risk-Targeted Hazard Spectra for Seismic Design in New Zealand
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2021-04-14)
The promotion of risk-targeted hazard spectra as the basis of seismic design internationally has increased over the past decade. Risk-targeted hazard spectra are derived through convolution of hazard curves with representative ...
