Modern risk assessment of the influences of natural and military man-made factors on the state of the historical buildings of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra

During its thousand-year history, the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra has experiences many disasters. At the time when the fight against religion was part of the state ideology, the cathedral and monastery were closed, and its countless treasures were confiscated. Even in the turbulent 1930s, when the bolsheviks destroyed dozens of unique temples and churches in Kyiv, the Assumption Cathedral remained intact. Black days for the age-old shrine came during the German occupation in the fall of 1941. First, the shrine was looted, and many material and artistic valuables were taken. In November 1941, a series of explosions destroyed the main temple of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, which had served as a tomb for the Kiev princes. In February 2022, the war had started again in our country, and modern scientific technology allows us to assess the impact of military events on buildings of Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra from viewpoint of the level of seismic hazard assessment, which have lasted in Ukraine for more than two years, because Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The article presents the results of the analysis of the operation of devices for various purposes ― from the recording of seismic-acoustic waves, which have a high frequency of natural oscillations, to low-frequency ones, which are recorded by a laser inclinometer. The article also presents the results of modern automated data processing using various methods ― from the spectral method of signal recognition to the modern autopicker method of determining the time of arrival of waves AIC, which allows you to clearly determine the arrival time of vibration waves of various origins ― from the formation of cracks in historical buildings of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra to vibration waves of technical and natural origin.
