Evidence for Unusually Strong Near-field Ground Motion on the Hanging Wall of the San Fernando Fault during the 1971 Earthquake [PDF]
, 1998 Reports of unusually intense ground motions in the very near fields of faults that have ruptured during earthquakes are becoming more common, particularly with the markedly increased worldwide strong-motion instrumentation in recent years (e.g., Heaton ...

Seismic site classification from the horizontal-to-vertical response spectral ratios: use of the Spanish strong-motion database [PDF]
, 2019 Normally, the average of the horizontal-to-vertical (H/V) ratios of the 5% damped response spectra of ground motions is used to classify the site of strong-motion stations. In these cases, only the three-orthogonal as-recorded acceleration components are

Estimation of strong ground motions from hypothetical earthquakes on the Cascadia subduction zone, Pacific Northwest [PDF]
, 1986 Strong ground motions are estimated for the Pacific Northwest assuming that large shallow subduction earthquakes, similar to those experienced in southern Chile, southwestern Japan, and Colombia, may also occur on the Cascadia subduction zone.

Experimental Research on Damping Effect of Double-Layer Tuned Mass Damper for High-Rise Structure
Shock and Vibration, 2021 A double-layer tuned mass damper (DTMD) has advantages of wide damping frequency band and strong robustness. At present, there is a lack of seismic design methods for high-rise structures based on DTMDs.

Ductility of RC Columns due to Strong Near Source Earthquakes [PDF]
, 2000 Near source earthquakes can produce strong vertical ground motions with large amplitude and high frequency content. In this paper the axial ductility behavior of RC columns due to near source earthquakes is investigated.
