摘要： Seismic hazard analyses, either in a deterministic (DSHA) or probabilistic (PSHA) framework, are both commonly adopted for evaluating earthquake risk. Although different in methodology, both approaches involving tedious calculation are certainly a computer-aided analysis. For Taiwan, a few PSHA studies have been conducted, but not a single comprehensive DSHA study is yet available for this region. As a result, this study aims to develop a DSHA seismic hazard map for Taiwan through an Excel-based program. In use of the in-house program, the result shows that the deterministic seismic hazards for Taiwan are comparable to those estimated by the recent PSHA; in particular the 50th PGA (mean motion) in this DSHA was found in a good agreement with the PSHA at 10% exceedance probability in 50 years. In addition to developing the DSHA map for Taiwan, this paper provides the details of the in-house, Excel-based tool for Excel applications in geosciences studies. ► An Excel-based program for performing DSHA was developed. ► The program details were provided in this paper. ► A comprehensive DSHA map for Taiwan was developed using the in-house program. 出版者： Elsevier Ltd 出版日期： 2012-11-01 出處： Computers & geosciences, 2012-11, Vol.48, p.111-116 資源來源： Elsevier ScienceDirect Journals Complete 版權： 2012 Elsevier Ltd 識別號： ISSN: 0098-3004 識別號： EISSN: 1873-7803 識別號： DOI: 10.1016/j.cageo.2012.05.014
