Abstract
This paper presents new empirical models for estimating displacements on surface-fault ruptures for reverse faults within a hazard forecasting framework. These models include revised relationships between earthquake magnitude and maximum or average displacement and revised distributions of normalized principal displacement as a function of location along fault strike. This work has been in conjunction with the Fault Displacement Hazard Initiative (FDHI) and utilizes the recently released database that contains surface-fault displacement and rupture trace data from global reverse and reverse-oblique mechanism earthquakes.
