Seismic Risk Analysis for Critical Structural Systems: The Case Study of a Medical Center and its Supporting Systems in Yangon, Myanmar and Metro Manila, Philippines

Program: Collaborative Research for Common Regional Issues (CRC) Field: Civil Engineering Principal Investigator: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Khin Aye Mon Sending University: Yangon Technological University (YTU) Japanese Co-Investigator: Prof. Dr. Junji KIYONO Japanese University: Kyoto University Year: 2016 Abstract: Major cities in Myanmar and the Philippines are located near fault lines which might move when an accumulated ground strain exceeds the critical level. Once a fault line moves, it can produce ground motions such as large strains and permanent ground deformations. [...]

Development of the seismic microzonation maps of Yangon City based on both the probabilistic approach together with field investigation

Program: Collaborative Research for Common Regional Issues (CRC) Field: Natural Disaster Principal Investigator: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Myo Thant Sending University: University of Yangon (UY) Japanese Co-Investigator: Prof. Dr. Hiroshi KAWASE Japanese University: Kyoto University Year: 2013 Abstract: The probabilistic seismic hazard assessment is carried out for Yangon City, Yangon Region, Myanmar, since Yangon is the most populated and major city of Myanmar. It is also the acient city of Myanmar. We used the classical method of Cornell (1976), probabilistic seismic [...]
