. PROBABILISTIC ASSESSMENT OF THE SEISMIC HAZARD LEVEL OF THE “TAKHTAKORPU” RESERVOIR LOCATION

Abstract

The maximum risks of possible strong earthquakes in tectonic faults or potential sources, which are a source of seismic hazard for the Takhtakorpu reservoir, built in the Shabran area, have been quantitatively  assessed. It turned out that the maximum value of the expected ground acceleration from an earthquake in the  study area with a probability of 2% over 50 years is 0.27g, and the value of the maximum ground acceleration with a probability of 10% over 50 years is 0.16g
