Seismic hazard assessment for Cyprus
Journal of Seismology, 2009In the present study, probabilistic seismic hazard assessment was conducted for Cyprus based on several new results: a new comprehensive earthquake catalog, seismic source models based on new research, and new attenuation relationships. Peak ground acceleration distributions obtained for a return period of 475 years for rock conditions indicate high ...

Regional and local seismic hazard assessment
Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2001Recent earthquakes like the MJMA 7.2 Hyogo-ken Nambu earthquake and the M 7.4 Kocaeli earthquake demonstrate once again the need to include detailed soil investigation into hazard evaluation, that is the need of microzonation. Seismic hazard assessment conducted at a regional scale generally does not consider soil effects but for the choice of ...

Seismic hazard assessment of northern Pakistan
Natural Hazards, 2017This article presents probabilistic seismic hazard analyses of northern Pakistan region carried out to produce macro-seismic hazard maps for the region that define new regional ground motion design parameters for 95-, 475-, 975- and 2475-year return period earthquakes as regional contour maps and horizontal uniform hazard at important cities.

Seismic Hazard Assessment for Bucharest
2018In this section, a ground motion model is derived specifically for the Bucharest area using a dataset consisting of both recorded and simulated ground motions from Vrancea intermediate-depth earthquakes. The proposed ground motion model is able to capture the significant long-period spectral ordinates generated by the large magnitude Vrancea ...

Seismic hazard and risk assessment
2011The prediction program in China has provided useful experience and taught many lessons. The most important lesson is that, regardless of its future potential, it is presently impractical to rely on prediction to prevent earthquake disasters. The practical approach is to strengthen the resilience of our built environment based on an assessment of ...
