1st Annual Symposium – December 2025
Many thanks to EDF which hosted our 1st Annual Symposium in Aix-en-Provence on December 4th !
This event was a great opportunity to share SIGMA3 objectives and progress with +120 participants! We are grateful for every participant who contributed in making this Symposium a unique event. Thanks to all the meaningful discussions and shared experience on seismic hazard assessment and earthquake engineering !
Sound technical presentations by funders and scientists involved in the program during the plenary session are reminded bellow :
- Overview of recent progresses on the empirical assessment of site response – V. Perron (slides)
- Simulation platform and MCQSim ruptures simulator – F. Kuran (slides)
- Seismic assessment and risk in Japan – M. Nakajima
- New approaches for a Bayesian estimation of earthquake frequency-magnitude distribution relationships and associated uncertainties – M. Laporte (slides)
- Confrontation of French hazard models to observations from fragile geologic features – A. Rood (slides)
- Myanmar 7.7M earthquake – T. Ornthammarath (slides)
- Seismic tomography, lithospheric strength and earthquake spatial distribution – S. Lebedev (slides)
- Argostoli : A story of a natural laboratory for seismic hazard studies since 2014 and a reference site for SIGMA3 benchmarks – F. Hollender (slides)

1st General Assembly – June 2025
Many thanks to VTT which managed to settled down on June 5th and 6th the perfect conditions for our consortium sponsors and technical partners to meet and progress again on our goal : improve data, models and methods for the evaluation of seismic hazard at our critical facilities

SSA Annual Meeting – April 2025
A big thank you to our partners for coming to this renowned conference in Baltimore and for promoting our program, particularly through the presentation of this poster.

Kick-off meeting – June 2024
SIGMA3 partners are excited to announce the official kick-off of SIGMA3, which took place on June 11th, 2024 in Aix-en-Provence (France). This new initiative builds on the success of previous SIGMA and SIGMA-2 programs and promises to bring even more innovation and collaboration. SIGMA3 aims at exploring the main following thematic : seismic sources, ground motion and linear site response, site response and hazard calculation.
