Statistical tools for maximum possible earthquake magnitude estimation
Andrzej Kijko,Mayshree Singh +1 more
TL;DR: Several procedures for the statistical estimation of the regioncharacteristic maximum possible earthquake magnitude, mmax, are currently available as mentioned in this paper, and the applicability of each particular procedure is determined by the assumptions of the model and/or the available information on seismicity of the area.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seismotectonic Models for South Africa: Synthesis of Geoscientific Information, Problems, and the Way Forward
TL;DR: The delineation of seismotectonic zones of Africa as part of the Global Seismic Hazard Assessment Program (GSHAP) in 1999 was based on an analysis of the main tectonic structures and a correlation with present-day seismicity as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
First-order regional seismotectonic model for South Africa
TL;DR: A first-order seismotectonic model for South Africa was created by as mentioned in this paper using geoscientific data collection, characterisation, assimilation and zonation using four logical steps.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short communication: collection of isoseismal maps for South Africa
Mayshree Singh,Erna Hattingh +1 more
TL;DR: An atlas of isoseismal maps for South Africa, dating from as far back as 1932-2005, is provided in this paper, where the authors search through historical reports to find records of macroseismic effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seismic Risk Ranking for Large Dams in South Africa
TL;DR: In this paper, the characteristics of dams have been used to perform a basic seismic hazard assessment and rank the vulnerability of dams from the lowest to the highest, with gravity and earthfill dams being the most vulnerable to earthquake motion.
