abstract: An evaluation of seismic hazards, whether deterministic (scenario
based) or probabilistic, requires an estimate of the expected
ground motion at the site of interest. The most common means of
estimating this ground motion in engineering practice, including
probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA), is the use of an
attenuation relation. An attenuation relation, or ground-motion
model as seismologists prefer to call it, is a mathematical-based
expression that relates a specific strong-motion parameter of
ground shaking to one or more seismological parameters of an
earthquake. These seismological parameters quantitatively characterize
the earthquake source, the wave propagation path between
the source and the site, and the soil and geological profile
beneath the site.
