Sensitivity of the Earthquake Response of Tall Steel Moment Frame Buildings to Ground Motion Features [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The seismic response of two tall steel moment frame buildings and their variants is explored through parametric nonlinear analysis using idealized sawtooth-like ground velocity waveforms, with a characteristic period (T), amplitude (peak ground velocity,

Some principles of generating seismic input for calculating structures [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
In this paper different models of seismic input are analyzed. The most essential characteristics of seismic effects are peak ground acceleration, peak ground velocity, peak ground displacement, Arias intensity, cumulative absolute velocity, seismic ...

Peak Ground Velocities for Seismic Events at Yucca Mountain, Nevada [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This report describes a scientific analysis to bound credible horizontal peak ground velocities (PGV) for the repository waste emplacement level at Yucca Mountain. Results are presented as a probability distribution for horizontal PGV to represent uncertainties in the analysis.

Limits of Earthquake Early Warning Accuracy and Best Alerting Strategy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We explore how accurate earthquake early warning (EEW) can be, given our limited ability to forecast expected shaking even if the earthquake source is known.

Ground-State SiO Maser Emission Toward Evolved Stars

open access: yes, 2004
We have made the first unambiguous detection of vibrational ground-state maser emission from SiO toward six evolved stars. Using the Very Large Array, we simultaneously observed the v=0, J=1-0, 43.4-GHz, ground-state and the v=1, J=1-0, 43.1-GHz, first ...

An updated 1-dimensional seismic velocity model has been developed for the Mw 6.1 Pasaman earthquake that occurred on February 25, 2022

open access: yesJournal of Applied Geospatial Information
On February 25, 2022, a strong-felt earthquake with magnitude Mw 6.1 occured within the western portion of Pasaman, West Sumatra, Indonesia. The impact of the seismic activities has produced an enormous shaking which measured as VI on the Adjusted ...

Probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in Greece – Part 1: Engineering ground motion parameters [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010
Seismic hazard assessment represents a basic tool for rational planning and designing in seismic prone areas. In the present study, a probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in terms of peak ground acceleration, peak ground velocity, Arias intensity and ...

New constraints for site-effect characterization from seismic noise analysis in southern Italy. San Fele case study

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2010
In the framework of ground-motion amplification analysis for southern Italy, the main target of this study is to provide new constraints on one-dimensional, shallow-velocity profiles for a site in the San Fele area near the city of Potenza (southern ...

Assessment of potential strong ground motions in the city of Rome

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1994
A methodology is used which combines stochastic generation of random series with a finite-difference technique to estimate the expected horizontal ground motion for the city of Rome as induced by a large earthquake in the Central Apennines.
