A STOCHASTIC FINITE – FAULT MODELING FOR THE 1755 LISBON EARTHQUAKE

In Portugal, being located at a moderate/low seismicity intraplate area, insufficient accelerograms have been recorded to satisfactory undertake any regional empirical study. The number of accelerograms is not only small but also refers to low-magnitude earthquakes located in only some parts of its entire seismic area. For that reason, most prediction techniques of ground motion in Portugal have been based on international empirical laws and not on regional data to quantify the characteristics of ground motions.
