Earthquake induced soil liquefaction poses a significant threat to buildings and infrastructure, as evidenced by numerous catastrophic seismic events. Existing approaches of regional liquefaction hazard assessment predominantly rely on deterministic analysis methods. This paper presents a novel Probabilistic Liquefaction Hazard Analysis (PLHA) framework based on Monte-Carlo (MC) simulations to mitigate future seismic risks associated with liquefaction.

In this study, the synthesis of twelve 3-(2-thienyl)pyrazoline derivatives are described. The structures of all compounds were confirmed by UV, IR, (1)H-NMR, mass spectral data, and microanalyses. In the pharmacological studies, antidepressant and anticonvulsant activities of these compounds have been screened.

Twelve 1-phenyl-, 1-thiocarbamoyl- and 1-N-substituted thiocarbamoyl-3-(2-furyl)-5-phenyl/(2-furyl)-2-pyrazoline derivatives were synthesized. The chemical structures of the compounds were proved by IR, (1)H NMR, Mass spectrometric data and microanalyses. The antidepressant activities of the compounds were investigated by Porsolt's behavioural despair (forced swimming) test on albino mice.

Eighteen 1-phenyl-, 1-thiocarbamoyl- and 1-N-substitutedthiocarbamoyl-3-phenyl-5-heteroaryl-2-pyrazoline derivatives were synthesized and tested for their antidepressant and anticonvulsant activities. Their chemical structures were proved by spectral and microanalysis. The antidepressant activities of the compounds were investigated by the "forced swimming test".
