Site classification using horizontal-to-vertical response spectral ratios and its impact when deriving empirical ground- motion prediction equations
We classify sites based on their predominant period computed using average horizontal-tovertical (H/V) response spectral ratios and examine the impact of this classification scheme on empirical ground-motion models. One advantage of this classification is that deep geological profiles and high shear-wave velocities are mapped to the resonance frequency of the site. We apply this classification ...
متن کاملLiquefaction Hazard assessment using Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio of Microtremor
In this paper, the spectral ratio of mmicrotremor, HSVR, is presented for estimating the liquefaction potential of layered soil in the coastal area of the Persian Gulf, which consists of a hard sandstone layer situated between two saturated sandy layers. The surface layer is thin, with a thickness between 2 and 5 meters. The purpose of this paper is to identify the relation between the liquefac...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Horizontal and Vertical Near-Field Ground Motions and Investigation of Their Effects on the Dynamic Response of Bridges
Recently, concerning failure of structures due to earthquakes, special investigations of near fault ground motions have been noticed. Hence, in this paper, characteristics of near field ground motions have been considered in horizontal and vertical directions. In this consideration, the record averages have been compared with Uniform Building Code and Eurocode8 spectra in two levels. In additio...
متن کاملPrediction of Strong Ground Motion Using the Hybrid Empirical Method and Its Use in the Development of Ground-Motion (Attenuation) Relations in Eastern North America
Ground-motion (attenuation) relations are used to estimate strong ground motion for many engineering and seismological applications. Where strongmotion recordings are abundant, these relations are developed empirically from strong-motion recordings. Where recordings are limited, they are often developed from seismological models using stochastic and theoretical methods. However, there is a larg...
متن کاملGround-motion Prediction Equations for Southern Spain and Southern Norway Obtained Using the Composite Model Perspective
In this paper, two sets of earthquake ground motion relations to estimate peak ground and response spectral acceleration are developed for sites in southern Spain and in southern Norway using a recently published composite approach. For this purpose seven empirical ground motion relations developed from recorded strong-motion data from different parts of the world were employed. The different r...
