Using peak ground velocity to characterize the response of soil-pile system in liquefying ground

open access: yesEngineering Geology, 2018
Abstract Performance of a soil-pile system can be significantly influenced by many characteristics of an earthquake ground motion, and it is vitally important to identify the ground motion parameters that have the most significant effects on the response when predicting the level of movement or damage in the pile.

Effect of peak ground velocity on deformation demands for SDOF systems

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics, 2005
SUMMARY The eect of peak ground velocity (PGV) on single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) deformation demands and for certain ground-motion features is described by using a total of 60 soil site records with source- to-site distances less than 23 km and moment magnitudes between 5.5 and 7.6.

THE PREDICTION AND USE OF PEAK GROUND VELOCITY

Journal of Earthquake Engineering, 2006
Peak ground velocity (PGV) has received much less attention in the technical literature than more widely-used parameters such as peak ground acceleration (PGA) and response spectral ordinates. However, there are many examples of the use of PGV in engineering seismology and earthquake engineering, including as a parameter from which to estimate ...

Monitoring of Peak Ground Velocity During Rockbursts

IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 1987
To design tunnel support to withstand rockbursts in deep hardrock mining it is necessary to know the peak velocity of a tunnel sidewall under such severe conditions. A method of measuring peak ground velocity during rockbursts and a general-purpose robust data-logger developed for this purpose is described.

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 ( I mm ) and peak ground acceleration (PGA) and velocity (PGV) by comparing horizontal peak ground ...
