| Abstract | The region around Taiwan is known for active seismicity, and a few studies have reported a high seismic hazard in this region, including a deterministic seismic hazard analysis (DSHA) study. Essentially, DSHA is to estimate earthquake ground motions considering the worst-case earthquake size and location, but without considering the seismic hazards from non-controlling sources. Understandably, when many non-controlling sources are present, the original DSHA framework could be insufficient. Therefore, using the extreme probability theory, this study introduces a new DSHA framework taking non-controlling seismic sources into account during DSHA calculations. The new method was applied to a seismic hazard assessment for Taiwan, showing that near the conjunctions of seismic source zones, the increase in seismic hazard could be substantial after considering a total of 19 non-controlling sources. More importantly, like other seismic hazard assessments for Taiwan, this study conveys the same alarming message that a high level of seismic hazard should be present around the region. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
