Seismic safety-margins research program. Phase I final report - development of seismic input (Project II)
Project II was charged with developing a probabilistic statement of the seismic hazard at the zion site. The definition of the seismic hazard included both the time histories upon which the SMACS computation was based and the hazard curve necessary for the calculation of unconditional release probabilities by SEISIM. In this volume, the application of the probabilistic approach is discussed using expert opinion to obtain estimates of the seismic hazard at the Zion site. The ground motion models used to develop the seismic hazard at the Zion site and the extensive sensitivity studies which were performed to determine the important parameters and the significance of uncertainty in them are described.
