An objection sometimes made against treating the weights of logic tree branches as probabilities relates to the Kolmogorov axioms, but these are only an obstacle if one …
In the current practice of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) using logic trees, it is common to use the mean hazard curve to determine ground motions for engineering design …
Any trustworthy probabilistic seismic‐hazard analysis (PSHA) has to account for the intrinsic variability of the system (aleatory variability) and the limited knowledge of the system itself …
Logic trees have become a popular tool in seismic hazard studies. Commonly, the models corresponding to the end branches of the complete logic tree in a probabalistic seismic …
The purpose of a site-specific probabilistic seismic-hazard analysis (PSHA) is to characterize the potential levels of ground shaking that could be experienced due to future …
