Synchronization of HTW Peak Responses with Peak Ground Acceleration

Geotechnical Engineering for Transportation Projects, 2004
Pseudo-static analysis of seismic performance of an earth structure based on the assumption of the synchronization of its peak responses with the peak ground acceleration are described in this paper. For a mechanically stabilized earth retaining wall, the acceleration, horizontal wall displacement, earth pressure, bearing pressure, and inclusion ...

Magnitude-dependent variance of peak ground acceleration

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1995
AbstractWe examine the variability of peak horizontal and vertical accelerations of the large California strong-motion data set for the time period 1957 to 1991 and find a statistically significant dependence of the standard error on earthquake magnitude. Specifically, the standard error decreases with increasing magnitude.

Estimation of the peak horizontal ground acceleration based on peak accelerations of the components

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1982
Abstract Lower and upper bounds of the peak horizontal ground acceleration are obtained through the consideration of the peak accelerations of two horizontal orthogonal components of the ground motion. Since the bounded region is relatively narrow, it is proposed to use the mean of the upper and lower bound accelerations as the peak ...

Relationships between Peak Ground Acceleration, Peak Ground Velocity, and Modified Mercalli Intensity in California

Earthquake Spectra, 1999
We have developed regression relationships between Modified Mercalli Intensity ( Imm) and peak ground acceleration (PGA) and velocity (PGV) by comparing horizontal peak ground motions to observed intensities for eight significant California earthquakes.

Relationship between Peak Ground Acceleration, Peak Ground Velocity, and Intensity in Taiwan

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2003
Based on the strong-motion data set from the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake and a shaking damage statistics database, we investigated the correlations between strong ground motions and earthquake damage (fatalities and building collapses) through a regression analysis.

Bayesian Analysis of Peak Ground Acceleration Attenuation Relationship

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2010
Estimation of peak ground acceleration is one of the main issues in civil and earthquake engineering practice. The Boore‐Joyner‐Fumal empirical formula [1] is well known for this purpose. In this paper we propose to use the Bayesian probabilistic model class selection approach to obtain the most suitable prediction model class for the seismic ...

Probability of Peak Ground Horizontal and Peak Ground Vertical Accelerations at Tehran and Surrounding Areas

Pure and Applied Geophysics, 2010
The active faults near Tehran are capable of producing Mw magnitudes of 6.62–7.23; at epicentral distances of 25 km from the active faults, and Mw = 7.23, the peak ground horizontal acceleration, PGH, is between 386 and 730 cm/s2 and peak ground vertical acceleration, PGV, is between 192 and 261 cm/s2; the historic earthquake of the fourth century BC ...

Global Attenuation Relationship for Estimating Peak Ground Acceleration

Journal of the Geological Society of India, 2018
Abstract Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) is a very important ground motion parameter which is used to define the degree of ground shaking during an earthquake. It is also very helpful for designing earthquake resistant structure. The PGA can be estimated by attenuation relationships using magnitude, distance, source type etc of a ground ...

ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK BASED ESTIMATION OF PEAK GROUND ACCELERATION

ISET Journal of Earthquake Technology, 2009
This paper presents the application of artificial neural networks (ANN) for estimation of peak ground acceleration (PGA) for earthquakes of magnitude more than 5.0 and hypocentral distance of less than 50 km. Earthquake magnitude, hypocentral distance, and average values of four geophysical properties of the site (Standard Penetration Test (SPT) blow ...
