Seismic hazard assessment for Guinea, West Africa. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2022 AbstractGuinea is located on a stable continental region in West Africa, this is a region characterised by infrequent seismic events. In this study, the seismic hazard level of Guinea and 10 main cities was determined by a probabilistic approach. The calculation was carried out for 10%, 2% and 0.5% probability of exceedance in 50 years (corresponding ...

Assessment of seismic hazards in Yemen [PDF]
Heliyon, 2021 The seismic hazard analyses for Yemen have attracted the attention of researchers during the last two decades. However, the studies are limited and mainly use deterministic or approximate conventional probabilistic approaches. The conclusions drawn from these studies do not fit with current seismic design codes (International Building Code).

Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment of Sweden
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Sweden is a low-seismicity, stable continental region where seismic hazard assessment is non-trivial. Diffuse seismicity, low seismicity rate, few large magnitude earthquakes and little strong motion data makes it difficult to estimate recurrence parameters and determine appropriate attenuation relationships.

Probabilistic Seismic‐Hazard Assessment for Eritrea [PDF]
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2017 To date little is known about seismic hazard in Eritrea, despite its location in a volcanically and tectonically active region, and the gathering pace of major infrastructure projects. In response, we report the findings of a comprehensive probabilistic seismic‐hazard assessment for Eritrea and adjacent areas.

Seismicity and seismic hazard assessment in West Africa
Journal of African Earth Sciences, 2021 No in-depth seismic hazard (SH) study for West Africa (WA) has ever been conducted, as the regional earthquake catalogues are incomplete. Such lack of comprehensive SH study has negatively affected planning and development of critical infrastructure and disaster risk management in WA.

Seismic Hazard Assessment [PDF]
, 2020 Seismic hazard means the possibility of a strongest ground motion taking place in a specified area during a given time interval. Because earthquake occurrence in time, location and magnitude are random, the probabilistic method is a reasonable choice for seismic hazard assessment.

Seismic hazard assessment for Adria
Annals of Geophysics, 1999 The Adriatic region was chosen as one of the test areas in the GSHAP program and, consequently, its seismic hazard was computed. The standard hazard map chosen by GSHAP represents PGA with a 475-year return period. Some other parameters, as the spectral acceleration and the uniform hazard response spectra for the main Adriatic towns, have been computed

Seismic hazard assessment of Iran
Annals of Geophysics, 1999 The development of the new seismic hazard map of Iran is based on probabilistic seismic hazard computation using the historical earthquakes data, geology, tectonics, fault activity and seismic source models in Iran. These maps have been prepared to indicate the earthquake hazard of Iran in the form of iso-acceleration contour lines, and seismic hazard ...

Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment for Taiwan
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2016 The Taiwan Earthquake Model (TEM) was established to assess the seismic hazard and risk for Taiwan by considering the social and economic impacts of various components from geology, seismology, and engineering. This paper gives the first version of TEM probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for Taiwan in these aspects. We named it TEM PSHA2015.
