Application of risk assessment models for seismic risk map

Seismic risk evaluation at a high potential area such as the Ranau district in Sabah is very important. However, the current method of seismic risk analysis through one of its parameters, seismic vulnerability, is mostly focused on assessing the physical damage of structures of the affected area.

Electronics Nuclear engineering Seismic risk evaluation at a high potential area such as the Ranau district in Sabah is very important. However, the current method of seismic risk analysis through one of its parameters, seismic vulnerability, is mostly focused on assessing the physical damage of structures of the affected area.

The model was developed from hybrid models previously used individually for disaster-related analysis.

The seismic vulnerability results computed from these hybrid models were validated using the areas under the curve (AUC) of the relative operating characteristic (ROC). It was found that the NB model showed the lowest reliability with the AUC values of 0.640 and 0.741 for its success rate and prediction rate, respectively. The AUC values for other models' success rates are 0.853, 0.856, and 0.869 for FR-IoE, (FR-IoE) AHP, and (FR-IoE) LR, respectively, while their prediction rates are 0.863, 0.906, and 0.844 for FR-IoE, (FR-IoE) AHP and (FR-IoE) LR, respectively. A seismic hazard analysis was performed to complete the seismic risk model computation. The determination of seismic hazard was done by evaluating the Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA), which was derived from Ground Motion Prediction Equation (GMPE).
