A generalization of the frequency-magnitude relation in the hypothesis of a maximum regional magnitude

In this work a new non-linear theoretical cumulative<br />frequency-magnitude relation is proposed, that better fits the experimental<br />data in the high magnitude range than the classical Gutenberg-Richter's<br />relation does. The parameters of the...
