Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis for Yemen
A stochastic-event probabilistic seismic hazard model, which can be used further for estimates of seismic loss and seismic risk analysis, has been developed for the territory of Yemen. An updated composite earthquake catalogue has been compiled using the

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis and determination of uniform hazard spectrum of Bushehr province assuming linear source model [PDF]
Due to the high complexity in the mechanism of earthquakes occurrence, it is not possible to predict it accurately at a given site. Experiences and scientific findings indicate that using the statistical and probabilistic techniques entitled seismic ...

Why is Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) still used?
Even though it has never been validated by objective testing, Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) has been widely used for almost 50 years by governments and industry in applications with lives and property hanging in the balance, such as ...

SEISMIC HAZARD MICROZONATION BASED ON PROBABILITY SEISMIC HAZARD ANALYSIS IN BANDUNG BASIN [PDF]
The geological and seismic-tectonic setting in the Bandung Basin area proliferates the seismicity risk. Thus, it is necessary to investigate the seismic hazards caused by the foremost seismic source that affects the ground motions in the bedrock. This research employed Probability Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) method to determine the peak ground ...

The influence of aftershocks on seismic hazard analysis: a case study from Xichang and the surrounding areas [PDF]
In some instances, a strong aftershock can cause more damage than the mainshock. Ignoring the influence of aftershocks may lead to the underestimation of the seismic hazard of some areas.

New Zealand seismic hazard analysis
The results of a seismic hazard analysis for the country by the Seismic Risk Subcommittee (SRS) of the Standards Association are presented. The SRS was formed in 1979 to advise the Standards Association Loadings Code Amendments Committee on the frequency and level of earthquake ground shaking throughout New Zealand.
