Seismic hazard modeling is a multidisciplinary science that aims to forecast earthquake
occurrence and its resultant ground shaking. Such models consist of a probabilistic …

Seismic hazard analyses (SHA) are routinely carried out around the world to understand the
hazard, and consequently the risk, posed by earthquake activity. Whether single scenario …

The NGA-West2 project is a large multidisciplinary, multi-year research program on the Next
Generation Attenuation (NGA) models for shallow crustal earthquakes in active tectonic …

A set of region-specific ground-motion models (GMMs) for subduction zone earthquakes are
developed based on the database compiled by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering …

In this article, we present an overview of the research project NGA-East, Next Generation
Attenuation for Central and Eastern North America (CENA), and summarize the key …

We explore how accurate earthquake early warning (EEW) can be, given our limited ability
to forecast expected shaking even if the earthquake source is known. Because of the strong …

The fundamental objective of earthquake engineering is to protect lives and livelihoods
through the reduction of seismic risk. Directly or indirectly, this generally requires …

Because of the limited number of strong‐motion records that have measured ground
response at large strains, any statistical analyses of seismic site‐response models subject to …

Abstract We perform three‐dimensional (3‐D) numerical calculations of dynamic rupture
along non‐planar faults to study the effects of fault roughness on rupture propagation and …

Aleatory variability in ground‐motion prediction, represented by the standard deviation
(sigma) of a ground‐motion prediction equation, exerts a very strong influence on the results …
