A Multi Record Based Artificial Near Fault Ground Motion Generation Method [PDF]
Near fault ground motion is a kind of ground motion with great damage, which is difficult to simulate. The amplitude and frequency functions of near fault ground motion vary greatly with time.

A procedure to select ground-motion time histories for deterministic seismic hazard analysis from the Next Generation Attenuation (NGA) database [PDF]
In performance-based seismic design, ground-motion time histories are needed for analyzing dynamic responses of nonlinear structural systems. However, the number of ground-motion data at design level is often limited.

Empirical ground motion prediction
New methods of site-specific ground motion prediction in the time and frequency domains are presented. A large earthquake is simulated as a composite (linear combination) of observed small earthquakes (subevents) assuming Aki-Brune functional models of ...
