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 ...

seismic hazard assessment like many other issues in seismology is a complicated problem, which is due to variety of parameters affecting the occurrence of earthquake. uncertainty, which is a result of vagueness and incompleteness of the data, should be considered in a rationale way. herein, fuzzy set theory is used to take into account the uncertainty existed in the seismic hazard analysis. the...

Seismic hazard analyses, either in a deterministic (DSHA) or probabilistic (PSHA) framework, are both commonly adopted for evaluating earthquake risk. Although different in methodology, both approaches involving tedious calculation are certainly a computer-aided analysis. For Taiwan, a few PSHA studies have been conducted, but not a single comprehensive DSHA study is yet available for this regi...

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis, as the most prevalent approach to evaluate earthquake hazard, is commonly based on catalogs. Although previous studies show that recurrence time of large-magnitude (Mw> 7.0) events in Iran more than ~ 1000–2000 years, available instrumentally recorded earthquakes are limited less 100 years. With idea having another proxy for seismicity rates, we propose a ...

this paper is devoted to compiling a site geology map for town of amiriyeh, from seismic macro-zonation point of view using geophysical methods of shallow seismic, down-hole seismic and resistivity surveys. in this map site geology has been classified based on shear wave velocity, according to the criteria for site geology classification offered in the iranian code of practice for seismic resis...

Interaction between a structure under base excitation and heavy non-structural elements that it supports is significant in the seismic analysis and design of the structure. Heavy non-structural elements may slide/rock under base excitation, and this dynamic action affects the seismic behavior of the supporting structure. Hence, in this study, a numerical model was presented to describe the seis...
