Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Map on the French National Territory
Seismic hazard assessment for the construction of earthquake-resistant buildings, in particular of critical facilities, in France follows traditionally a deterministic approach. The aim of the French Working Group EPAS (Evaluation Probabiliste de l’Aléa Sismique / Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment), under the aegis of the AFPS (Association Française de Génie Parasismique / French Associat...

متن کاملA new probabilistic seismic hazard assessment for greater Tokyo.
Tokyo and its outlying cities are home to one-quarter of Japan's 127 million people. Highly destructive earthquakes struck the capital in 1703, 1855 and 1923, the last of which took 105,000 lives. Fuelled by greater Tokyo's rich seismological record, but challenged by its magnificent complexity, our joint Japanese-US group carried out a new study of the capital's earthquake hazards. We used the...
متن کاملUpdating Seismic Hazard at Parkfield
The occurrence of the September 28, 2004 Mw=6.0 mainshock at Parkfield, California, has significantly increased the mean and aperiodicity of the series of time intervals between mainshocks in this segment of the San Andreas fault. We use five different statistical distributions as renewal models to fit this new series and to estimate the time-dependent probability of the next Parkfield mainshoc...
متن کاملSlow deformation and lower seismic hazard at the new madrid seismic zone
Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements across the New Madrid seismic zone (NMSZ) in the central United States show little, if any, motion. These data are consistent with platewide continuous GPS data away from the NMSZ, which show no motion within uncertainties. Both these data and the frequency-magnitude relation for seismicity imply that had the largest shocks in the series of earthquak...
