Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis for Ground Shaking
Foreword The purpose of the Delta Risk Management Strategy (DRMS) Initial Technical Framework (ITF) is to guide the analysis of specific technical topics as they relate to assessing potential risks to Delta levees and assets resulting from various potential impacts (e.g., floods, earthquakes, subsidence, and climate change). These ITFs are considered " starting points " for the work that is to ...
متن کاملA Short Note on Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis
Although probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) is the most widely used method to assess seismic hazard and risk for various aspects of public and financial policy, it contains a mathematical error in the formulations. This mathematical error results in difficulties in understanding and application of PSHA. A new approach is presented in this paper. Seismic hazards derived from the new ap...
متن کاملFacilitating Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis Using Bayesian Networks
In probabilistic seismic hazard analysis, one wants to calculate the probability of exceedance of a certain shaking level at a particular site. This requires a good understanding of the parameters that can influence seismic ground-motions. Bayesian networks are used to investigate the probabilistic dependencies between several parameters of the groundmotion domain. Problems specific to the doma...
متن کاملProbabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment of Tehran Based on Arias Intensity
A probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in terms of Arias intensity is presented for the city of Tehran. Tehran is the capital and the most populated city of Iran. From economical, political and social points of view, Tehran is the most significant city of Iran. Many destructive earthquakes happened in Iran in the last centuries. Historical references indicate that the old city of Rey and the...
متن کاملPoisson model for earthquake frequency uncertainties in seismic hazard analysis
Frequency-magnitude distributions, and their associated uncertainties, are of key importance in statistical seismology. When fitting these distributions , the assumption of Gaussian residuals is invalid since event numbers are both discrete and of unequal variance. In general, the observed number in any given magnitude range is described by a binomial distribution which, given a large total num...
