The Chilean Seismological Networks has been rapidly growing these past years, going from few dozens of stations, to nearly a 100 installed all over the country. Even more [...]

Evaluation of the seismic site response of the Santiago Basin requires a detailed shear wave velocity model that accounts for vertical variations in relatively short dist [...]

Chile is one of the most seismically active countries in the world, because it is located in the subduction zone generated by the convergence of the South American and Na [...]

Seismic demand determination for structures and quantification of seismic hazard of a region require the evaluation of the local site effects, such as the dynamic amplifi [...]

A comprehensive and systematic study of the destructiveness of earthquakes originated by the subduction of the Nazca plate under the South American plate during the last [...]

Two peaks design response spectra (2PRS) for Chilean seismic code are proposed considering soil effects and seismic source effects. These spectra consider the source effe [...]
