Strong‐motion seismology

Reviews of Geophysics, 1987
Strong‐motion seismology is concerned with earthquake ground motion in the amplitude range that poses the threat of human injury or property damage. Because the occurrence of strong motion cannot be predicted in advance and because the time between significant events at any one place may range from tens to thousands of years, strong‐motion data is ...

Strong Ground Motion

2004
The availability of empirical strong ground motion data will always be less that what would be needed to meet the needs of a variety of ever demanding engineering problems. A set of strong ground motions, either recorded or theoretically simulated, is the necessary database for the civil engineering design, regarding both new construction and ...

Strong‐motion seismology

Reviews of Geophysics, 1983
Although this is the first review on this topic to appear in a quadrennial report, the roots of strong‐motion seismology extend back to at least 1932, when far‐sighted engineers in the Seismological Field Survey of the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey installed rugged, fieldworthy instruments designed to make on‐scale recordings of large earthquakes ...

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

and high-frequency strong motion spectra

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 1994
Abstract Empirical scaling equations for Fourier amplitude spectra of strong ground motion are used to describe A 0 and τ in the assumed (high-frequency) shape of strong motion amplitudes: FS( φ ) = A 0 e- πτφ . The res of computed A 0 and τ with other related estimates of spectral amplitudes; (2) smooth ...

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 ...

Earthquakes, Strong-Ground Motion

2011
Earthquake ground motion is a natural phenomenon associ- ated with a sudden release of energy due to a fault rupture. Strong-motion seismology deals with seismic waves radiated by large earthquakes. More precisely, it is concerned with measurement, interpretation and prediction of strong shaking generated by damaging earthquakes.

Strong Motion Response Spectra

Seismological Research Letters, 1971
Empirical equations derived from explosion data compare well with earthquake measurements. Maximum earth motion in cm, cm/sec, and gravity units, body wave earthquake magnitude, and distance in km, are included in the functions: a = 3.04 × 10 0.74 m − 4 R − 1.4 v = 4.06 × 10 0.88 m − 3 R − 1.5
