Non-linearity and temporal changes of fault zone site response associated with strong ground motion
S U M M A R Y We systematically analyse temporal changes of fault zone (FZ) site response along the Karadere-Düzce branch of the North Anatolian fault that ruptured during the 1999 İzmit and Düzce earthquake sequences. The study is based primarily on spectral ratios of strong motion seismic data recorded by a FZ station and a station ∼400 m away from the fault and augmented by analysis of weak ...
متن کاملA Strong Ground Motion Catalogue of Selected Records for Shallow Crustal, Near Field Earthquakes in Iran
Understanding strong ground motions in the near-fault areas is important for seismic risk assessment in densely populated areas. In the past, lack of information on strong ground motion for large and moderate earthquakes led to the use of mainly far field large and moderate earthquake records in equations for calculation of the strong ground motion parameters. In this article, we collected and ...
متن کاملResponse of Buildings with Inclined First-Story Columns to Near-Fault Ground Motion
In this paper a simple model of a three story building with inclined first-story columns has presented. The stories are supposed to be rigid and are connected to axially rigid mass less columns by elasto-plastic rotational springs and linear rotational dampers. The considered model is subjected to horizontal component of fault normal pulse with different magnitudes and the governed nonlinear di...
متن کاملOPTIMUM PERFORMANCE-BASED DESIGN OF CONCENTRICALLY BRACED STEEL FRAMES SUBJECTED TO NEAR-FAULT GROUND MOTION EXCITATIONS
This paper presents a practical methodology for optimization of concentrically braced steel frames subjected to forward directivity near-fault ground motions, based on the concept of uniform deformation theory. This is performed by gradually shifting inefficient material from strong parts of the structure to the weak areas until a state of uniform deformation is achieved. In this regard, to ove...
متن کاملSimulation of fault dynamic rupture and near-field strong motion
Dynamic rupture process of earthquake fault and its near-field strong ground motions are simulated by time-space-decoupled, explicit finite element method with multi-transmitting formula (MTF) of artificial boundary in this paper. This decoupled, explicit method has advantage to easily incorporate into time-step simulation of dynamic rupture process on earthquake fault, as well as wave motions....
