An Introduction to Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis

This document explains the calculations involved in Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA), and the motivation for using this approach in combining many models and data sources to create a quantification of the possibility of intense ground shaking at a site. This document is made by Prof. J.W. Baker from Stanford Univ.. It could act perfectly as a good intro before digesting the following PSHA's books:

- McGuire, R. K. (2004). Seismic Hazard and Risk Analysis, Earthquake Engineering Research Institute, Berkeley.
- Kramer, S. L. (1996). Geotechnical earthquake engineering, Chapter 4, Prentice Hall, Upper Saddle River, N.J.
- Reiter, L. (1990). Earthquake hazard analysis: issues and insights, Columbia University Press, New York.

----- These all reveal the black-box of the PSHA program (e.g. EZ-FRISK).
