The overall objective of SERA (Seismology and Earthquake Engineering Research Infrastructure Alliance for Europe) was to give a significant contribution to improve the access to data, services and research infrastructures, and deliver solutions based on innovative R&D in seismology and earthquake engineering, aiming at reducing the exposure of our society to the risk posed by natural and anthropogenic earthquakes.<\/p>\n

To this end, SERA will:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Gather the communities involved in previous successful projects including NERA and SERIES;<\/li>\n
  • Offer transnational access to the largest collection of high-class experimental facilities in earthquake engineering;<\/li>\n
  • Offer virtual access to the main data and products in seismology and anthropogenic seismicity;<\/li>\n
  • Promote multi-disciplinary science across the domains of seismology, anthropogenic seismicity, near-fault observatories and deep underground laboratories, to achieve an improved understanding of earthquake occurrence;<\/li>\n
  • Revise the European Seismic Hazard reference model for consideration in the ongoing revision of the Eurocode 8;<\/li>\n
  • Develop the first comprehensive framework for seismic risk modeling at European scale;<\/li>\n
  • Develop the new standards for future experimental observations in earthquake engineering and for the design of future instruments and networks for observational seismology;<\/li>\n
  • Develop reliable methodologies for real-time assessment of shaking and damage;<\/li>\n
  • Expand access to seismological observations; Network infrastructures and communities in the fields of deep seismic sounding, experimental earthquake engineering and site characterization;<\/li>\n
  • Provide an important contribution to the construction and validation of EPOS;<\/li>\n
  • Provide effective communication and outreach to all stakeholders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>
