Abstract

A comparatively simple model of an earthquake and an observation-controlled scheme for specifying geological ground conditions are used to predict seismic intensities for three major California earthquakes. The high degree of agreement achieved between prediction and observation allows the drawing of several conclusions of significance to seismology and earthquake engineering.
