The influence of aftershocks on seismic hazard analysis: a case study from Xichang and the surrounding areas [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
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.

Comparison of scenario seismic hazard and probabilistic seismic hazard analysis with Single Source, Lembang Fault, Indonesia: a preliminary study [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Seismicity analysis can be carried out using deterministic and probabilistic methods. One approach that can be done with the help of OpenQuake is the Scenario Seismic Hazard Analysis (SSHA) and Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) methods.

Seismic hazard analysis for Sutami Dam using probabilistic method [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
One of the largest structures in Malang is Sutami dam. It was built in 1964 to 1973 and began to be operated in 1977. Considering the age of the dam which is over 40 years and the high risk of earthquake in this area, it is necessary to analyze its ...

Fault Displacement Hazard Analysis Based on Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis for Specific Nuclear Sites

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Permanent ground displacements/deformations caused by earthquakes can seriously challenge the safety of the nuclear power plants. The state-of-the-art hazard analysis methods provide a fault displacement hazard curve, i.e., the annual probability of ...

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

A Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis Method Incorporating Physics-Based Simulation and Ground Motion Prediction Equation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Disaster Risk Science
The traditional approach to probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) relies on ground motion records, which restricts its application in regions with sparse seismic records or low seismicity.
