Relation Between Near‐Fault Ground Motion Impulsive Signals and Source Parameters
Near‐fault ground motion records often present impulsive signals, characterized by a large amplitude in the velocity wavefield and by the energy concentrated in a short time window as compared to the total earthquake duration. This pulse‐like behavior is

This paper proposes two kinds of arrangements of buckling-restrained brace dampers to strengthen soft-first-storey structures locally. Two types of near-fault ground motion, with and without pulse, were selected for a study of the seismic response ...

Slip history of the 2003 San Simeon earthquake constrained by combining 1-Hz GPS, strong motion, and teleseismic data [PDF]
The slip history of the 2003 San Simeon earthquake is constrained by combining strong motion and teleseismic data, along with GPS static offsets and 1-Hz GPS observations.

This paper investigates the optimal design of base-isolated structures equipped with tuned inerter dampers (TIDs) subjected to various ground motions. The Clough–Penzien model is employed to simulate the power spectrum of three types of ground motions ...

An Empirical Model to Account for Spectral Amplification of Pulse-Like Ground Motion Records
Near-source effects can amplify seismic ground motion, causing large demand to structures and thus their identification and characterization is fundamental for engineering applications.

Strong ground motion characteristics of 2016 Central Italy earthquakes and implications for ground motion modeling [PDF]
The 2016 Central Italy earthquake sequence produced three mainshocks: (1) M6.1 24 August, (2) M5.9 26 October, and (3) M6.5 30 October. Each mainshock was followed by many aftershocks, some of which with M > 5.0.

Seismic reliability assessment of classical columns subjected to near-fault ground motions [PDF]
A methodology for the performance-based seismic risk assessment of classical columns is presented. Despite their apparent instability, classical columns are, in general, earthquake resistant, as proven from the fact that many classical monuments have ...

Slip history and dynamic implications of the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake [PDF]
We investigate the rupture process of the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake using extensive near-source observations, including three-component velocity waveforms at 36 strong motion stations and 119 GPS measurements.

Inversion of strong ground motion and teleseismic waveform data for the fault rupture history of the 1979 Imperial Valley, California, earthquake [PDF]
A least-squares point-by-point inversion of strong ground motion and teleseismic body waves is used to infer the fault rupture history of the 1979 Imperial Valley, California, earthquake.
