In this paper the seismicity of Finland has been re-evaluated on the basis of a new regional magnitude scale, which gives somewhat lower magnitude values than the previously used macroseismic scale. Macroseismic magnitudes for Finnish earthquakes have been calculated by using the value 4.0 for the c
This paper presents the evaluation of seismic hazard at the site of Algiers (capital of Algeria). In order to implement earthquake-resistant design codes, it is usually necessary to know the maximum dynamic load which a particular structure might experience during its economic life, or alternatively
Seismic hazard curves and scenario earthquakes based on probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) are evaluated for a site in Korea. Moreover, dominant seismic sources for the site are identified from the contribution factors of the seismic sources. Furthermore, the seismic hazard curves for eigh
The general philosophy of seismic hazard evaluation described here is appropriate for selection of seismic input to regional earthquake engineering codes prior to detailed on-site inspections and geotechnical assessments. Some probabilistic seismic hazard methodologies which can be applied in areas
