Most earthquake-related losses are enhanced by soil amplification phenomena, especially in areas where high vulnerability assets coexist. These mechanisms are frequently inferred from empirical formulas. These procedures are based on the average shear-wave velocity to 30 m depth (Vs30) as a proxy for amplification events. However, past analysis...
