The term “spatial variability of seismic ground motions” denotes the differences in amplitude and phase content of seismic motions recorded over extended areas or wit [...]

Since the basic work of Cornell, many studies have been conducted in order to evaluate the probabilistic seismic hazard (PSHA) at a given site or at a regional scale. In [...]

In nuclear engineering practice, fragility curves are often determined by means of margin factors, using the scaling method This approach allows for determining fragility [...]

Attenuation relationships are generally built in a deterministic way: based on physical considerations, the overall process (including stability tests) focuses on obtaini [...]

Recent Probabilistic Seismic Hazards Assessments (PSHA) studies on the French metropolitan territory exhibit very different seismic level. The two PSHAs considered in thi [...]
