Interpreting intraplate tectonics for seismic hazard : a UK historical perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It is notoriously difficult to construct seismic source models for probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in intraplate areas on the basis of geological information, and many practitioners have given up the task in favour of purely seismicity-based ...

The application of endurance time method for optimum seismic design of steel moment-resisting frames using the uniform deformation theory [PDF]

open access: yesNumerical Methods in Civil Engineering, 2020
The optimum seismic design of structures is one of the biggest issues for engineers to build resistant and economic structures. In this research, the application of the endurance time method in optimum performance design of steel moment-resisting frames ...

Modelling seismic ground motion and its uncertainty in different tectonic contexts: challenges and application to the 2020 European Seismic Hazard Model (ESHM20) [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
Current practice in strong ground motion modelling for probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) requires the identification and calibration of empirical models appropriate to the tectonic regimes within the region of application, along with ...

Seismic hazard maps of Peshawar District for various return periods [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2020
Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis of Peshawar District has been performed for a grid size of 0.01∘. The seismic sources for the target location are defined as the area polygon with uniform seismicity.

Seismic hazard analysis by neo-deterministic seismic hazard analysis approach (NDSHA) for Kosovo

open access: yesApplied 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 ...

A hybrid model for mapping simplified seismic response via a GIS-metamodel approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In earthquake-prone areas, site seismic response due to lithostratigraphic sequence plays a key role in seismic hazard assessment. A hybrid model, consisting of GIS and metamodel (model of model) procedures, was introduced aimed at estimating the 1-D ...

Deterministic Seismic Hazard Analysis in Thailand using Active Fault Data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Technology, 2016
To develop seismic design criteria for buildings, seismic hazard analysis is required to estimate the ground motion intensity with criteria such as peak ground acceleration (PGA).
