First Steps Towards Site Characterization Activities at the CSTH Broad-Band Station of the Campi Flegrei’s Seismic Monitoring Network (Italy) [PDF]
Local site conditions can significantly influence the amplitude, duration, and frequency content of seismic recordings, making the characterization of subsoil properties a critical component in seismic hazard assessment.

Summary of Research on Site Response Analysis [PDF]
A large number of seismic observation data and macroscopic survey of earthquake damage indicate that soil site may amplify the intensity of ground-motion and thus aggravate the damage to the structures on the soil site[1].

Evaluation of site effects on the seismic performance of a friction-damped steel IMF under near-fault earthquakes [PDF]
The local site conditions and the geological properties of soil materials on which buildings are constructed might play a pivotal role in changing the characteristics of input seismic ground motions, and subsequently affect the seismic performance of the

Numerical analysis of seismic wave amplification in Nice (France) and comparisons with experiments [PDF]
The analysis of site effects is very important since the amplification of seismic motion in some specific areas can be very strong. In this paper, the site considered is located in the centre of Nice on the French Riviera.
