Seismic Hazard Analysis and Obtaining Uniform Hazard Spectra for Esfahan Region, Iran

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 ...

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 ...

Deterministic seismic hazard analysis for Peshawar, Pakistan

Ground motion estimation for a site (34.01 o N, 71.45 o E) located in the Peshawar in terms of Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) values is conducted. It is carried out with deterministic seismic hazard analysis approach using faults sources within a radius of one hundred kilometers around site. The results of this study indicate that the Main Boundary Thrust located at a distance of twenty nine (2...

Seismic hazard assessment of Iran by Ising cellular automation modeling

It is essential to use statistical models and theoretical analysis of the data for preparing comprehensive geological and seismic hazard mapping. A cellular automaton consists of an array of cells, each one of which has a finite number of possible states, together with a rule for updating all cells simultaneously based only on the states of neighboring cells. In the present paper, Ising cellula...

Seismic Hazard Analysis of Golsar district in Rasht Metropolis

Golsar is located in north-west of Rasht the capital city of Guilan province. This region, according to standards 2800, is identified among the regions with relatively high risk of earthquake. A set of historical and instrumental seismicity data used in radius of 200 km which covers the period twelveth century until now. Kijko method has been applied for estimating for parameters considering of...
