Probability and Uncertainty in Seismic Hazard Analysis
Earthquake Spectra, 2005In the current practice of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) using logic trees, it is common to use the mean hazard curve to determine ground motions for engineering design. We present the case against the use of the mean hazard curve and explain why this practice should be discontinued and, where necessary, removed from regulations.

Seismic hazard analysis—Computer validation
Computers & Structures, 1996The purpose of this paper is to discuss the validation procedures used for validating a computer model developed for seismic hazard analysis. An elaborate and detailed computer model ([1] J. M. Ferritto, seismic hazard analysis, users guide #UG-0027, NCEL, Port Hueneme (1993)) was developed at the Naval Civil Engineering Laboratory (NCEL), Port Hueneme,

The Hazard in Using Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis for Engineering
Environmental & Engineering Geoscience, 1998Both the deterministic and probabilistic methods of seismic hazard analysis serve necessary purposes. Probability is needed to obtain operating basis earthquakes, to perform risk analyses, to prioritize projects, and for assigning recurrence estimates to deterministic earthquakes.

Geological analysis and seismic hazard in the Central Apennines (Italy)
Journal of Geodynamics, 2000Abstract This study puts forward a segmentation model applied to active faults with the aim of assessing seismic hazard in the Central Apennines. The model, whose reliability had been ascertained during the 1997 Umbria–Marche earthquake sequence, also implies a review of the key terms used in the analysis of active faults and points out the need for ...
