Seismic Hazard Assessment [PDF]
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.

Predicting seismic landslide hazard in the Batang fault zone of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
The Batang fault on the eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has strong activity since the Holocene, where the geomorphology and geological structure is complex, and the historical earthquakes occurred frequently, which induced abundant landslides. For the long-

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

Valuation of extinction parameters of anisotropic macro-seismic wave intensities
A method is proposed for calculating the parameters of macroseismic intensity decay of anisotropic fields. Macroseismic field are described by the model of Blake-Shebalin to the attenuation depending on the azimuth direction «epicenter-point-score ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessments for Myanmar and its metropolitan areas
Although Myanmar is an earthquake-prone country, there has not been proposed an official national seismic hazard map. Thus, this study conducted a probabilistic seismic hazard assessment for Myanmar and some of its metropolitan areas.

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of Nepal using multiple seismic source models
The potential for devastating earthquakes in the Himalayan orogeny has long been recognized. The 2015 MW7.8 Gorkha, Nepal earthquake has heightened the likelihood that major earthquakes will occur along this orogenic belt in the future.
