Study of Rotational Ground Motion in the Near-Field Region
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2009 During the nineteenth and twentieth centuries observational seismologists recorded primarily the earthquake-induced translational wave field, while the rotational motion still remains poorly observed and investigated. We aim to further understand the rotational ground motion and its relation to the translational wave field, with a special emphasis on ...
