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 ...

The December 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake emphasized the need for a consistent and comprehensive assessment of tsunami hazard. We have developed a method for Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Analysis (PTHA) based on the traditional Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) and therefore completely consistent with standard seismic practice. In lieu of attenuation relations, it uses the summati...

Probabilistic seismic hazard maps are widely used for engineering design, land use planning, and disaster mitigation etc. This study conducted a review of readily available information on tectonic setting, geology, and seismicity, and the attenuation of peak ground acceleration (PGA) of Taiwan for completing the revised probabilistic seismic hazard maps by the state-of-the-art probabilistic sei...

Abstract The design of critical facilities needs a targeted computation the expected ground motion levels. Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) is pipeline that transports natural gas from Greek-Turkish border, through Greece and Albania, to Italy. We present here probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) we performed for this facility, deaggregation results, aiming identify dominant sources select...
