Abstract:Continuous seismic hazard curves can be used to flexibly determine earthquake intensity with an arbitrary annual exceedance probability for probabilistic structural seismic design. To obtain an explicit expression of the continuous curve based on several given earthquake intensities corresponding to different hazard levels from probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA), a model of the annual maximum peak ground motion based on the Fréchet distribution has been widely adopted over the past decades. However, … Show more
