New static and dynamic displacement-based procedures have been developed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for the seismic evaluation and design of buildings. The static procedures calculate displacements in yielding buildings as the product of an elastic spectral displacement and co

Past studies of seismic hazard in the U.K. that have used modern probabilistic methods of hazard assessment have been site-specific studies, mostly in connection with nuclear installations. There has been a need for general-purpose maps of seismic hazard to show relative variation of exposure within
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
A seismic hazard evaluation for three dams in the Rocky Mountains of northern Colorado is based on a study of the historical seismicity. To model earthquake occurrence as a random process utilizing a maximum likelihood method, the catalog must exhibit random space-time characteristics. This was achi
