Deterministic Seismic Hazard Analysis in Thailand using Active Fault Data [PDF]
International Journal of Technology, 2016 To develop seismic design criteria for buildings, seismic hazard analysis is required to estimate the ground motion intensity with criteria such as peak ground acceleration (PGA).

DETERMINISTIC SEISMIC HAZARD ASSESSMENT FOR ANKARA, TURKEY
, 2016 Mostly, The province of Ankara is known as a safe place in terms of seismicity and earthquake hazard. However, the earthquakes that have occurred in the recent years, and the studies have begun to show that it may not be such.

Seismic hazard analysis for engineering sites based on the stochastic finite-fault method
Earthquake Science, 2022 Seismic hazard analyses are mainly performed using either deterministic or probabilistic methods. However, there are still some defects in these statistical model-based approaches for regional seismic risk assessment affected by the near-field of large ...

Assessment of seismic hazards in Yemen
Heliyon, 2021 The seismic hazard analyses for Yemen have attracted the attention of researchers during the last two decades. However, the studies are limited and mainly use deterministic or approximate conventional probabilistic approaches.

Estimation of seismic ground motions using deterministic approach for major cities of Gujarat [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2012 A deterministic seismic hazard analysis has been carried out for various sites of the major cities (Ahmedabad, Surat, Bhuj, Jamnagar and Junagadh) of the Gujarat region in India to compute the seismic hazard exceeding a certain level in terms of peak ...

Transposing an active fault database into a seismic hazard fault model for nuclear facilities – Part 1: Building a database of potentially active faults (BDFA) for metropolitan France [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017 The French Institute for Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety (IRSN), with the support of the Ministry of Environment, compiled a database (BDFA) to define and characterize known potentially active faults of metropolitan France. The general structure
