Stochastic Generator of Earthquakes for Mainland France

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Mainland France is characterized by low-to-moderate seismic activity, yet it is known that major earthquakes could strike this territory (e.g., Liguria in 1887 or Basel in 1356).

Towards preparation of design spectra for Serbian national annex to Eurocode 8: Part II. Usage of the UHS approach instead of normalized spectral shapes scaled by a single PSHA parameter [PDF]

open access: yesFacta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2012
Eurocode 8 spectra are scaled by the peak ground acceleration values that are defined for the given site through a probabilistic seismic hazard analyses (PSHA).

How well does Poissonian probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) approximate the simulated hazard of epidemic-type earthquake sequences?

open access: yesBulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2022
Classical Poissonian probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) relies on the rate of independent mainshocks to estimate future seismic hazard levels. Real earthquakes, however, cluster in time and space. How different is hazard assessed by Poissonian PSHA from that generated by clustered seismicity?

PSHRisk-Tool: A Python-Based Computational Tool for Developing Site Seismic Hazard Analysis and Failure Risk Assessment of Infrastructure

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
To quantify the annual probability of earthquake ground motion (GM) exceeding a given threshold, the extensively used method named by probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) can be adopted.

Seismic Rigoletto: Hazards, risks and seismic roulette applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Neo-Deterministic Seismic Hazard Assessment (NDSHA), dating back to the turn of the Millennium, is the new multi-disciplinary scenario- and physics-based approach for the evaluation of seismic hazard and safety–guaranteeing “prevention rather than cure.”

A review on the multi-criteria seismic hazard analysis of Ethiopia: with implications of infrastructural development

open access: yesGeoenvironmental Disasters, 2021
Earthquake is a sudden release of energy due to faults. Natural calamities like earthquakes can neither be predicted nor prevented. However, the severity of the damages can be minimized by development of proper infrastructure which includes microzonation

Variable Fault Geometry Suggests Detailed Fault‐Slip‐Rate Profiles and Geometries Are Needed for Fault‐Based Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA) [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2018
It has been suggested that a better knowledge of fault locations and slip rates improves seismic hazard assessments. However, the importance of detailed along‐fault‐slip‐rate profiles and variable fault geometry has not yet been explored. We quantify the importance for modeled seismicity rates of using multiple throw‐rate measurements to construct ...

Revisiting seismic hazard assessment for Peninsular Malaysia using deterministic and probabilistic approaches [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018
Seismic hazard assessments, both deterministic and probabilistic, for Peninsular Malaysia have been carried out using peak ground acceleration (PGA) data recorded between 2004 and 2016 by the Malaysian Meteorological Department using triaxial ...

Characterization of Cebu Province Municipalities using Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA) And Geographic Information System (GIS)

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2020
Abstract Cebu province is considered to be one of the most developed provinces in the Philippines with 2.94 Million population. Last October 2013, a Magnitude of 7.2 earthquake affected the province and left a death toll of 222. Many of the cultural heritage structures were affected, and with this it is important that seismic assessment ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Kazakhstan and Almaty city in peak ground accelerations

open access: yesGeodesy 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 ...
