Simulation of strong ground motions [PDF]
The estimation of potential strong ground motions at short epicentral distances (Δ = 10 to 25 km) resulting from large earthquakes, M ≧ 6.5, generally requires extrapolation of a limited data set.

Equations for the Estimation of Strong Ground Motions from Shallow Crustal Earthquakes Using Data from Europe and the Middle East: Vertical Peak Ground Acceleration and Spectral Acceleration [PDF]
This article presents equations for the estimation of vertical strong ground motions caused by shallow crustal earthquakes with magnitudes M w 5 and distance to the surface projection of the fault less than 100km. These equations were derived by weighted

Review of the identification of near-fault velocity pulse-like strong ground motions
Strong pulse-like ground motions have caused extensive damage to many engineering structures and are one of the main factors influencing earthquake damage in near-fault regions.

Quantitative Identification of Pulse-Like Ground Motions Based on Hilbert–Huang Transform
Aiming to address the problem of pulse-like ground motions being difficult to identify, this paper refines the Baker’s wavelet-based pulse-like ground motions identification method, followed by a new pulse-like ground motion identification method based ...

Shaking Table Test of a Base-Isolated Frame Structure under Near-Fault Ground Motions
A five-story moment frame structural model with a base isolation system was tested on a shaking table. The isolation system comprised both linear natural rubber bearing (LNR) and nonlinear viscous dampers (NLVDs).
