Shear-Wave Velocity Characterization of the USGS Hawaiian Strong-Motion Network on the Island of Hawaii and Development of an NEHRP Site-Class Map [PDF]
To assess the level and nature of ground shaking in Hawaii for the purposes of earthquake hazard mitigation and seismic design, empirical ground-motion prediction models are desired.

The time-averaged shear wave velocity (SWV) to 30 m (VS30) is a site condition parameter that has been widely used to specify the site class in building codes. However, the penetration depth of some building sites is less than 30 m, and thus, VS30 cannot

تخمین احتمالاتی رده ساختگاه برای ایستگاههای شبکه شتابنگاری کشوری با استفاده از نسبت مولفه افقی به قائم بیشینه جنبش زمین و طیف شبه شتاب [PDF]
هدف از این مطالعه، تخمین کلاس سایت ، برای ایستگاه های شبکه شتابنگاری ایران، با استفاده از یک روش آماری می باشد. برای به دست آوردن ویژگی های خاک و به منظور کلاس بندی آن، متوسط سرعت موج برشی تا عمق 30 متر (VS30)، پارامتر مهم و بنیادی می باشد.

Assessment of a Fast Proxy of Vs30 (Vs30m)
The most frequent parameter used to quantify seismic site response in ground motion models is time-averaged shear wave velocity in the top 30 m of a site (Vs30), used by many engineering design codes and most recently by published empirical-scaling equations to estimate the amplitudes of strong ground motion.

Seismic site classification from the horizontal-to-vertical response spectral ratios: use of the Spanish strong-motion database [PDF]
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

Derivation of consistent hard rock (1000
A key component in seismic hazard assessment is the estimation of ground motion for hard rock sites, either for applications to installations built on this site category, or as an input motion for site response computation.

Distributed archive and single access system for accelerometric event data : a NERIES initiative [PDF]
We developed a common access facility to homogeneously formatted accelerometric event data and to the corresponding sheet of ground motion parameters. This paper is focused on the description of the technical development of the accelerometric data server

Seismic microzonation mapping of Greater Vancouver based on various site classification metrics
The goal of the multi-year seismic microzonation mapping project for Greater Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, is to produce seismic hazard maps inclusive of local site effects, in particular seismic hazard specific to one-dimensional site response ...
