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].

Factors Affecting Site-Specific Response Analysis [PDF]
AbstractThe engineering purpose of a site-specific response analysis is to estimate the uniform hazard acceleration spectrum on the ground surface for a selected hazard level. One of the mandatory components for site response analyses is one or more representative acceleration time histories that need to be scaled with respect to the calculated seismic

Implications of Site Specific Response Analysis
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.

Site Specific Ground Response Analysis for Quantifying Site Amplification at A Regolith Site
DOI: 10.17014/ijog.4.3.159-167A numerical model has demonstrated that it can simulate reasonably well earthquake motions at the ground level during a seismic event. The most widely used model is an equivalent linear approach.

“Site response analysis considering strain compatible site period”
Abstract In practice it is common to estimate site effects using a single proxy, or single variable such as 30 m shear wave velocity (VS30) or site period. Many studies have investigated merits of proposed proxies with contradicting recommendations.

The city of Durban has previously experienced higher than expected ground motions from large distant earthquakes. It is potentially exposed to significant seismic hazard due to seismic site amplification, which needs to be estimated for effective ...

Seismic risk at urban scale: the role of site response analysis [PDF]
Abstract A refined seismic risk assessment at urban level is fundamental to identify the most correct risk mitigation policies, both in short and long terms. To date, seismic risk assessment frameworks at regional level consider the site response by means of simplified geotechnical analyses.

Many of the urban settlements in Central Italy are placed nearby active faults and, consequently, the ground motion evaluation and seismic site effects under near-fault earthquakes are noteworthy issues to be investigated. This paper presents the results

On the Applicability of Transfer Function Models for SSI Embedment Effects
Soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects are typically neglected for relatively lightweight buildings that are less than two-three storeys high with a limited footprint area and resting on shallow foundations (i.e., not featuring a basement).

The thick soft superficial layers of the seabed greatly influence ground motion generally. It is worth studying how to find out the influence of these soft layers on ground motion parameters and determine reasonable seismic fortification parameters for ...
