Abstract:This paper summarizes the evolution of major strong-motion databases and ground-motion prediction equations (GMPEs) for shallow active crustal regions (SACRs) in Europe and surrounding regions. It concludes with some case studies to show the sensitivity of hazard results at different seismicity levels and exceedance rates for local (developed from country-specific databases) and global (based on databases of multiple countries) GMPEs of the same region. The case studies are enriched by considering other global… Show more
“…Hellenic Subduction Arc, Cyprian Arc, Makran, Iran). Inherent uncertainties of quality and accuracy of earthquake sources and ground shaking data (Akkar et al 2014) were incorporated by modelling alternative seismogenic source models (Danciu et al 2017). Data driven techniques combined with sensitivity analyses were used when building the reference ground motion model (Danciu et al 2016).…”
