A study on the effect of site response on California seismic hazard map assessment
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Prior studies have repeatedly shown that probabilistic seismic hazard maps from several different countries predict higher shaking than that observed.

Geotechnics, 2023 To evaluate the importance of the site effects of large structures such as the new Belvedere Bridge (L’Aquila), which crosses a 25 m deep and 100 m valley in the city, one-dimensional and two-dimensional analyses were used to model the seismic response ...

Modeling Site Effects in the Design and Analysis of Multi-site Trials [PDF]
The American Journal of Drug and Alcohol Abuse, 2011 Careful consideration of site effects is important in the analysis of multi-site clinical trials for drug abuse treatment. The statistical choices for modeling these effects have implications for both trial planning and interpretation of findings.Three broad approaches for modeling site effects are presented: omitting site from the analysis; modeling ...

Site of the Visual Suppression Effect [PDF]
Nature, 1967 THERE is no general answer to the question of the possible existence and function of a centrifugal pathway to the retina. Evidence for the presence of such a system in mammalian species is controversial, but Holden1 has pointed out that in the case of the pigeon there is substantial anatomical and physiological evidence for a centrifugal system.

Site effects and site amplification due to the 2009 Abruzzo earthquake [PDF]
WIT Transactions on The Built Environment, 2011 This paper presents the results of numerical analyses carried out to assess the different seismic response of two sites in the urban area of L’Aquila, selected as representative of typical subsoil conditions in the old city centre and in the recently developed suburban Pettino district.
