AGENDA
ADVANCES IN SEISMIC HAZARD ANALYSIS
Seismic hazard analysis provides essential information for the design of buildings, the update of national building codes and the assessment of various risk metrics. The methodologies used for assessing the hazard are constantly evolving to account for the progress made in several related disciplines, including but not limited to earthquake geology, geophysics and particularly seismology, geodesy, engineering seismology and earthquake engineering. Recently published hazard analyses show, for example, an increasing preference to model fault sources as a system without any a-priori assumption on segmentation and a more widespread use of methods inherited from statistical seismology to test the consistency between the forecasted seismicity and the one included in seismicity catalogues. On the ground-motion modelling side, emerging methodologies include modelling epistemic uncertainties based on backbone approaches and more extensive use of fully and partially non-ergodic ground motion models. Using many of these new approaches, primarily when the analyses cover large areas, remains challenging. This session will include contributions describing novel approaches for developing components of hazard input models or presenting hazard analyses performed for various applications and scales, from site-specific studies to national and regional hazard analyses.

LOCATION
HOTEL
The city of Milan offer over 43,000 hotels rooms while in close proximity of MiCo there are more than 1600 sleeping rooms ranging from 5 stars hotels to budget friendly lodge. Major investments in the sector made in recent years allowed Milan to manage the influx of 21 million visitors attending EXPO Milan 2015. Another important international appointment will be held in the next few years in Milan, the Olympics Games 2026.The city accommodation is constantly renewing, and new hotels are opening.
For booking details, please visit: https://www.wcee2024.it/logistics/accommodation/
TRANSPORTATION
Milan is located in the centre of Europe and is one of the easiest cities to reach. Every day 800 direct flights connect Milan to over 200 destinations around the world.
Malpensa airport is the most important intercontinental hub in southern Europe and is well connected to the city center thanks to the high-speed Malpensa Express train.
Two other international airports serve the city: Linate, just 7 km from the Duomo, and Orio al Serio, where the low-cost companies land.
