Abstract

b-value of the Gutenberg-Richter law is known as a critical parameter in seismic hazard analysis and prediction. b-value is considered as random variable because it is obtained through regression analysis based on available seismic data. considering the probability distribution of b-value can yields more accurate hazard curves. In this paper, Gutenberg-Richter relation is revised and then applied to PSHA.
