Combined Geophysical and Geotechnical Approaches for Microzonation Studies in Hispaniola Island

Combined Geophysical and Geotechnical Approaches for Microzonation Studies in Hispaniola Island

In this paper, we describe recent studies for the geophysical and geomechanical characterization of soils in Hispaniola (Greater Antilles), an island threatened by the eventual rupture of major seismogenic fault systems. The investigations were performed for four different cities settled on complex...
