In the framework of the European ITN URBASIS-EU project, we are organizing a new spring university on urban seismology and risk analysis from May 15 to May 20, 2023, in Porquerolles, France.

Objectives

The objectives of this second spring school are to provide students (PhD, post-doc and others) with an insight into research issues in engineering seismology, earthquake engineering and seismic risk in the broadest sense, and current and emerging research topics on seismic risk in interaction with the components that make up urban environments. Among these topics, we find the prediction of seismic ground motion and site effects, the emerging risk associated with induced seismicity, risk characterization and losses prediction, wave propagation in complex urban environments, insurance engineering, etc...

The spirit of this spring school is also to bring together young scientists and senior scientists coming from academic, private, non-profit and non-governmental sectors in a friendly spirit. In this way, time slots will be provided to create an effective friendly interaction between lecturers and students.

Program

The school program of each day will include lectures and keynotes given by the invited speakers and lecturers.

The spirit of this spring university is also to gather young scientits and senior scientits in an friendly environment. Time slots will be scheduled to create an effective friendly interaction between speakers and students.
Participants are encouraged to present a poster
