On occurrence disaggregation of probabilistic seismic hazard
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 Modelling of the Seismic Hazard using the Romanian Earthquake Catalogue [PDF]
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]
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 ...

Earthquake-Induced Landslide Risk Assessment: An Example from Sakhalin Island, Russia
Damages caused by earthquake-induced ground effects can be of the order or significantly exceed the expected damages from ground shaking. A new probabilistic technique is considered in this study for earthquake-induced landslide risk assessment.

The influence of aftershocks on seismic hazard analysis: a case study from Xichang and the surrounding areas [PDF]
In some instances, a strong aftershock can cause more damage than the mainshock. Ignoring the influence of aftershocks may lead to the underestimation of the seismic hazard of some areas.

Updated Probabilistic Seismic‐Hazard Values for Egypt
Seismic hazard in terms of mean peak ground acceleration (PGA) and spectral acceleration (SA) values has been computed for Egypt using both historical and instrumental earthquake data. For this purpose, an updated earthquake catalog, spanning the time period from 2200 B.C.
