Assessing infrequent large earthquakes using geomorphology and geodesy in the Malawi Rift [PDF]
, 2015 In regions with large, mature fault systems, a characteristic earthquake model may be more appropriate for modelling earthquake occurrence than extrapolating from a short history of small, instrumentally observed earthquakes using the Gutenberg–Richter ...

Seismic hazard in the design of oil and gas pipelines [PDF]
Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering, 2011 Criteria that are adopted in earthquake resistant design of pipelines and gas lines have to take into account seismic movements and seismic generated forces that are of significantly high probability level of appearance along the length of pipeline.

Seismic hazard analysis by neo-deterministic seismic hazard analysis approach (NDSHA) for Kosovo
Applied Rheology, 2023 It is favorable to re-evaluate the seismic hazard for a given territory, since in the course of time new methods are developed and new data are gathered that can enable more sophisticated (physically sound) and reliable assessment of the seismic hazard ...
