Seismic hazard assessment of Iran
Annals of Geophysics, 1999 The development of the new seismic hazard map of Iran is based on probabilistic seismic hazard computation using the historical earthquakes data, geology, tectonics, fault activity and seismic source models in Iran.

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Kazakhstan and Almaty city in peak ground accelerations
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2018 As for many post-soviet countries, Kazakhstan's building code for seismic design was based on a deterministic approach. Recently, Kazakhstan seismologists are engaged to adapt the PSHA (probabilistic hazard assessment) procedure to the large amount of ...

On occurrence disaggregation of probabilistic seismic hazard
Earthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2022 AbstractDisaggregation of probabilistic seismic hazard allows to quantify how much one or more earthquake scenarios contribute to the occurrence [exceedance] of a ground motion intensity measure threshold of interest (x) at the construction site. The scenario is usually defined in terms of magnitude (M), source‐to‐site distance (R), and possibly ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Switzerland: best estimates and uncertainties [PDF]
Journal of Seismology, 2008 We present the results of a new genera tion of probabilistic seismic hazard assessment for Switzerland. This study replaces the previous intensity-based generation of national hazard maps of 1978. Based on a revised moment-magnitude earthquake catalog for Switzerland and the surrounding regions, covering the period 1300–2003, sets of recurrence ...

Assessing infrequent large earthquakes using geomorphology and geodesy in the Malawi Rift [PDF]
, 2015 In regions with large, mature fault systems, a characteristic earthquake model may be more appropriate for modelling earthquake occurrence than extrapolating from a short history of small, instrumentally observed earthquakes using the Gutenberg–Richter ...

Probabilistic Modelling of the Seismic Hazard using the Romanian Earthquake Catalogue [PDF]
Bulletin of the Polytechnic Institute of Jassy: Constructions, Architechture Section, 2005 The actual trend of performance based modelling of the seismic action is to adopt probabilistic models of the seismic hazard. In the first part of the paper are presented theoretical aspects of the seismic hazard definition from the probabilistic point ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in Greece – Part 1: Engineering ground motion parameters [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010 Seismic hazard assessment represents a basic tool for rational planning and designing in seismic prone areas. In the present study, a probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in terms of peak ground acceleration, peak ground velocity, Arias intensity and ...
