PROBABILISTIC TSUNAMI HAZARD ASSESSMENTS WITH CONSIDERATION OF UNCERTAIN EARTHQUAKE CHARACTERISTICS. (2018). Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1(36), currents.11. https://doi.org/10.9753/icce.v36.currents.11
Resumen
This study proposes a methodology to conduct probabilistic tsunami hazard assessments (PTHA) with consideration of uncertain earthquake characteristics. The methodology adopts a stochastic framework to model the earthquake slip and location as a random field and a random vector, respectively. The stochastic framework consists of three stages: (1) the definition of consistent probability properties for uncertain earthquake characteristics, (2) the generation of samples and (3) the uncertainty propagation. To complete each stage we follow the method recently proposed in Sepúlveda et al. (2017). We illustrate our PTHA methodology by assessing the tsunami hazard in Kao Hsiung and Hong Kong, with consideration of earthquakes in the Manila Trench.Referencias
