Topography influences ground motion and, in general, increases the amplitude of shaking at mountain tops and ridges, whereas valleys have reduced ground motions, as is observed from data recorded during and after real earthquakes and from numerical simulations. However, recent publications have focused mainly on the implications for ground motion in the mountainous regions themselves, whereas t...

the present study was conducted to determine peak ground acceleration (pga) over bedrock in probabilistic analysis methods for the seismic hazard and uniform hazard spectra at different hazard levels for esfahan city. a series of statistics containing historical and instrumental seismic data covering from the 8th century a.d. to the now up to a radius of 200 km was employed and seismic sources ...

In India, the frequency of occurrence of earthquakes is more, especially in Himalaya, northeast India and Gujarat region. Therefore it becomes essential to estimate the seismic inputs for such earthquakes to reduce the structural damage. From engineering point of view, the most sought-after data is the strong motion accelerograms (SMA), recorded in the places where earthquake has occurred. The ...

This paper study the recent seismicity in Earthquake hazard zones in India. A large historical earthquake event catalog to cover the period of 1900-2018, the parameters date, time, latitude, longitude, depth and magnitude has been used to calculating frequency-magnitude distribution (b-value) of seismic hazard zones in India. To convert different magnitude scales into a single moment magnitude ...

CyberShake, as part of the Southern California Earthquake Center’s (SCEC) Community Modeling Environment, is developing a methodology that explicitly incorporates deterministic source and wave propagation effects within seismic hazard calculations through the use of physics-based 3D ground motion simulations. To calculate a waveform-based seismic hazard estimate for a site of interest, we begin...

Abstract Based on the seismic source model in Fifth Generation Seismic Ground Motion Parameters Zonation Map of China (FGSGMPZMC), a new fault model, zonation risk areas (SRAs), and estimation seismicity rates for 2021–2030, this study constructed time-dependent China’s mainland, used probabilistic hazard analysis method to calculate by selecting ground motion models (GMMs) suitable sources Chi...

Passive seismic methods using earthquakes can be applied for extracting body waves and obtaining information of subsurface structure. To analyze earthquake data, one traditionally uses receiver functions, tomography, and seismic interferometry. In this study, we retrieve reflected body waves by applying seismic interferometry to the recorded ground motion from a cluster of earthquakes. We emplo...
