This paper provides a hazard map of Peru, showing peak ground acceleration (PGA) levels on bedrock, with a 10% probability of exceedance for a 50 yr time period. The probabilistic PGA map for Peru and adjacent areas may be used as a reference by designers and engineers to obtain the primary input fo

Based on a consistent interpretation of earthquake occurrence as a stochastic process I demonstrate that the mathematical model of Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA) as it is in use today is inaccurate and leads to systematic errors in the calculation process. These mathematical errors may
## Abstract An improved seismic hazard model for use in performance‐based earthquake engineering is presented. The model is an improved approximation from the so‐called ‘power law’ model, which is linear in log–log space. The mathematics of the model and uncertainty incorporation is briefly discuss
