Preliminary earthquake focal mechanism forecasts for the Amatrice sequence (central Italy)
Annals of Geophysics, 2016 We place the Amatrice (central Italy) seismic sequence and the related epicentral area in a contest of Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA). We apply a procedure to compute the probability to observe in the future a normal, reverse or strike-slip

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.The U.S. Geological Survey recently updated the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (PRVI). The first version of the PRVI NSHM was released in 2003, and therefore this 2025 update includes over 20 years of new geologic, geophysical, and engineering data, methods, and models.

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.We evaluate, select, and describe the ground‐motion models (GMMs) used in the 2025 update of the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (PRVI). We identify the most appropriate models that align with GMM selection criteria for use in the PRVI region to improve the accuracy of seismic hazard assessments ...

Comparative analysis of the seismic hazard of Central China [PDF]
, 2008 Seismic hazard assessment is globally recognised as a tool in identifying levels of earthquake ground shaking within an area. However, methodologies for seismic hazard calculation are wide ranging and produce variations in results and maps.

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.Engineers frequently use simplified seismic slope displacement procedures to evaluate the performance of earth structures and natural slopes. Current practices typically adopt Newmark‐type and semi‐empirical seismic displacement prediction models (SDPMs) to estimate the seismic slope displacements (D) based on ground motion intensity measures at a ...

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2019 This study was aimed to find out and analyze Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) in order to mitigate the earthquake. The PGA map resulted was an acceleration map on bedrock with a probability exceeding 10% and 2% with the Probabilistic Seismic Hazard ...

Stochastic Generator of Earthquakes for Mainland France
Applied 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).

Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis Incorporating Monte Carlo Method in the Case of Adelaide Region [PDF]
, 2017 DOI: 10.17014/ijog.4.2.81-96A topic of seismic hazard analysis (SHA) is briefly elaborated. A probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) is commonly used to assess the ground motion level expected with different likelihood at a rock site during a ...
