This chapter describes the fundamentals of seismic hazard assessment that constitutes the basis in the definition of seismic design forces. The classical probabilistic and deterministic hazard assessment methods are introduced with emphasis on their elementary components.

Journal of African Earth Sciences, 1997
Abstract A probability seismic hazard map of Uganda is presented, based on instrumentally-derived data. The Uganda catalogue, compiled by Twesigomwe for the period 1900 to 1991, has been used. The magnitudes in the catalogue have been homogenised to surface wave magnitude (Ms); the conversion of body wave magnitude (mb) and local magnitude (ML to Ms ...

Seismic Hazard vs. Seismic Risk
Seismological Research Letters, 2009The world is full of uncertainties, ranging from climate change, financial markets, natural disasters, terror attacks, and personal health to the measurements of the most fundamental elements of all: time and space. Dealing with uncertainty is a given in life, and any decision is always made under a certain degree of uncertainty.

Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis for Induced Seismicity
2014Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis is currently the most common approach to seismic hazard analysis. For application to induced seismicity, a major challenge is the fact that the hazard is inherently non-stationary. In this paper we describe the theoretical extension of PSHA to a non-stationary context.
