Site effects on strong ground motion

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 1987
Abstract A review of some of the available methods to study the effects of site conditions on strong ground motion is presented. The need of unified treatment of source, path and side effects in the assessment of seismic risk is pointed out.

Investigation of strong earthquake ground motion

1969
The pattern of energy release during the Imperial Valley, California, earthquake of 1940 is studied by analysing the El Centro strong motion seismograph record and records from the Tinemaha seismograph station, 546 km from the epicenter. The earthquake was a multiple event sequence with at least 4 events recorded at El Centro in the first 25 seconds ...

Curvograms of Strong Earthquake Ground Motion

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1990
A method for the synthetic generation of curvograms (curvature versus time) associated with strong earthquake shaking is presented. It is shown that small radii of curvative of ground motion, in the range of several hundred meters, are possible only for very large accelerations (1–3 ge/u), near epicenter, and in soft geologic and soil environment, with

Çanakkale Basin Strong Ground Motion Network

Çanakkale region is under the influence of the western extension of the strike-slip North Anatolian Fault in the north and active faults with different mechanisms in the south and east. Çanakkale city center is located on a Quaternary alluvial deposit with a depth of up to 100 m. Shear wave velocities are quite low (

EMPIRICAL SCALING OF STRONG EARTHQUAKE GROUND MOTION - PART III: SYNTHETIC STRONG MOTION

ISET Journal of Earthquake Technology, 2002
A comprehensive and general method for the prediction of strong motion amplitudes, developed by Strong Motion Research Group at University of Southern California, is reviewed. It uses synthetic translational accelerograms and the theory of linear wave propagation to predict all other components of strong motion: rotations (torsion and rocking), strains

EMPIRICAL SCALING OF STRONG EARTHQUAKE GROUND MOTION - PART II: DURATION OF STRONG MOTION

ISET Journal of Earthquake Technology, 2002
Definitions of duration are reviewed, with emphasis on the one, which is used in most studies. In this definition, the duration is related to the rate of energy input into structures. Next, the physical parameters of the earthquake source and propagation path, and regional geologic and local soil characteristics, are discussed, as those influence the ...

The Prediction of Strong Ground Motion

1987
The prediction of motion for use in engineering design must rely both on empirical and theoretical methods. The methods complement on another, for the empirical analyses provide checks on the theory and help to determine the parameters necessary in the theoretical predictions.
