Sentence examples for hazard disaggregation from inspiring English sources

In the scenario-based assessments, the target spectrum is derived directly from an earthquake scenario defined by seismic hazard disaggregation and strong ground-motion attenuation relationships.

Open image in new window Figure 2 The hazard disaggregation results.

Then, we performed hazard disaggregation analysis for determining target M, R, and ϵ at probabilities of exceedance of 50%, 10%, and 2% in a 50-year return period, and a sample of the results is shown in Figure 2.

For example, if the seismic hazard disaggregation suggests that extreme motions are associated with records having a mean value of HP of about 0.75, but records are selected with a mean value of about 0.50, then the Sa(T 1 -based result will underestimate the seismic fragility.

However, in the case that the design spectrum is derived from probabilistic seismic hazard analysis, disaggregation may be helpful, allowing to identify the earthquakes having the largest contribution to the hazard for the spectral ordinates of interest.

We present the results of a probabilistic seismic hazard assessment and disaggregation analysis aimed to understand the dominant magnitudes and source-to-site distances of earthquakes that control the hazard at the Celano site in the Abruzzo region of central Italy.

At each of the given hazard levels, the disaggregation results revealed different target epsilon values.

Disaggregation of the hazard calculations can ascertain which events dominate the hazard at a particular site.

Therefore, disaggregation of seismic hazard should be carried out to identify the target magnitude, the target distance, and the target epsilon at different hazard levels for ground motion selection (Bazzurro and Cornell 1999).

Disaggregation of the volcanic ash hazard for individual sites of interest provided insight into the primary causal factors for volcanic ash hazard at capital cities in Papua New Guinea, the Philippines and Japan.

The record selection in the current study is based on the records which have compatible epsilons with the target epsilon of ground motion disaggregation in specified scenarios of different hazard levels in the Mashhad site.
