摘要: The region around Taiwan is known for active seismicity, and a few studies have reported a high seismic hazard in this region, including a deterministic seismic hazard analysis (DSHA) study. Essentially, DSHA is to estimate earthquake ground motions considering the worst-case earthquake size and location, but without considering the seismic hazards from non-controlling sources. Understandably, when many non-controlling sources are present, the original DSHA framework could be insufficient. Therefore, using the extreme probability theory, this study introduces a new DSHA framework taking non-controlling seismic sources into account during DSHA calculations. The new method was applied to a seismic hazard assessment for Taiwan, showing that near the conjunctions of seismic source zones, the increase in seismic hazard could be substantial after considering a total of 19 non-controlling sources. More importantly, like other seismic hazard assessments for Taiwan, this study conveys the same alarming message that a high level of seismic hazard should be present around the region. 其他題名: Bull Eng Geol Environ 出版者: Berlin/Heidelberg: Springer Berlin Heidelberg 出版日期: 2014-05-01 出處: Bulletin of engineering geology and the environment, 2014-05, Vol.73 (2), p.635-641 資源來源: Agricultural & Environmental Science Collection 版權: Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014 識別號: ISSN: 1435-9529 識別號: EISSN: 1435-9537 識別號: DOI: 10.1007/s10064-013-0491-6 識別號: CODEN: BIEGB6
