Implications of Site Specific Response Analysis
, 2018 Definition of design earthquake characteristics, more specifically uniform hazard acceleration response spectrum, on the ground surface is the primary component for performance based design of structures and assessment of seismic vulnerabilities in urban environments.

Modeling ground motion in Mexico City using artificial neural networks [PDF]
Geofísica Internacional, 2003 After the September 1985 earthquakes in Mexico City, many strong motion instruments were laid down throughout the Valley of Mexico. Since then, a wealth of valuable information has been gathered.

Effect of Scour on Hydrodynamic Pressure of Offshore Monopile and Site Response Under Seismic Loads
Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringIn complex marine environments, monopile foundations are subjected not only to waves and currents but also to seismic loads. The long-term combined action of waves and currents induces scour around the monopile, leading to soil loss, seabed morphology ...

Earth, Planets and Space, 2017 Most modern seismic codes account for site effects using an amplification factor (AF) that modifies the rock acceleration response spectra in relation to a “site condition proxy,” i.e., a parameter related to the velocity profile at the site under ...

Evaluation of site response characteristics using microtremors
Građevinar, 2013 In the two last decades the microtremor H/V spectral ratio method has been widely used for site effect studies. Straightforward estimate of the site effect of sediments and low-cost measurements are the main advantages of mentioned method.

A taxonomy of site response complexity
Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2012 Abstract A few extensively studied downhole seismic arrays are commonly used in detailed site response studies. Thus, there is a critical need to increase the number of sites that are used to compare soil constitutive models. Toward this end, we develop a classification scheme for downhole arrays that identifies stations where common wave propagation
