GNGTS 2015 - Atti del 34° Convegno Nazionale

GNGTS 2015 S essione 2.1 21 mean time spent on each session demonstrates some deepening in the contents, and the website is still attracting new visitors, in Italy and from abroad. A special issue collecting selected papers from Tasks 1 to 6 has been proposed and accepted by an international journal (BEE - Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering); it is planned to be finished in late 2016. Conversely, Task 7 benefitted from a special issue of another international journal (BGTA – Bollettino di Geofisica Teorica ed Applicata), expected for late 2015. The results of Task 8 will follow other dissemination strategies, accordingly with the aims and needs of DPC Communication Office. As conclusive remarks, we want to thank the project participants and all the other people that made it feasible. The motto, set-up at the very beginning of S2-2012 project in the website banner, states “Teamwork is the ability to work as a group toward a common vision, even if that vision becomes extremely blurry”. We feel it an appropriate auspice for the future development of research on seismic hazard assessment in Italy. Acknowledgements.
