Procedure to estimate maximum ground acceleration from macroseismic intensity rating: application to the Lima, Perú data from the October-3-1974-8.1-Mw earthquake [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Geosciences, 2008
Post-disaster reconstruction management of urban areas requires timely information on the ground response microzonation to strong levels of ground shaking to minimize the rebuilt-environment vulnerability to future earthquakes. In this paper, a procedure

Characterization of ground oscillations induced by underground mining [PDF]

open access: yesPodzemni Radovi, 2022
We examine ground acceleration during M1.5 and M2.0 seismic events induced by underground mining at Upper Silesian coal basin and Legnica Glogow copper mine, respectively, using methods of nonlinear time series analysis, in order to confirm its ...

Ground motion prediction equations based on shallow crustal earthquakes in Georgia and the surrounding Caucasus

open access: yesEarthquake Science, 2022
Strong ground motions caused by earthquakes with magnitudes ranging from 3.5 to 6.9 and hypocentral distances of up to 300 km were recorded by local broadband stations and three-component accelerograms within Georgia’s enhanced digital seismic network ...

Shaking table tests on seismic response of a subway station structure in ground fissure site

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022
The safety of subway is seriously threatened by the coupling effects of earthquakes and ground fissures. A shaking table test is conducted on a subway station structure in a ground fissure site (structure crossing the ground fissure), and the ...

Validation of One Predominant Frequency Presence in Seismic Ground Displacement by Means of Deformation Response Spectra

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
There are very few results in the literature on spectral content of seismic ground displacement; nonetheless, these results are singular as most of the spectral content is limited to a very narrow low frequency band, contrary to ground acceleration ...

Ground reaction force estimates from ActiGraph GT3X+ hip accelerations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Simple methods to quantify ground reaction forces (GRFs) outside a laboratory setting are needed to understand daily loading sustained by the body. Here, we present methods to estimate peak vertical GRF (pGRFvert) and peak braking GRF (pGRFbrake) in ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment of the historical peninsula of Istanbul [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2012
In order to design buildings that are resistant to earthquakes, first it is necessary to determine the parameters of ground motion. In this study, the earthquake seismic hazard analysis of the Old City Districts of Istanbul (Fatih and Eminonu) was ...

Analysis of Multilayered Ground Amplification Characteristics by Scaled-Down Model Tests

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
During an earthquake, seismic waves travel through different media through the source to reach the surface. It is very necessary to study the dynamic characteristics of soil between different layers during earthquake.
