Wavelet-based Analysis for Pulse Period of Earthquake Ground-motions
Pulse period of earthquake records has been known as a key parameter in seismology and earthquake engineering. This paper presents a detailed characterization of this parameter for a special class of earthquake records called pulse-like ground motions. This type of motions often resulting from directivity effects is characterized by a strong pulse in the velocity time history of motion, in norm...
متن کاملAnalysis of strong and weak ground motions recorded at two sites during Loma Prieta earthquake by wavelet transform
This paper explores the applicability of wavelet transform for the analysis of strong and weak ground motions recorded on rock at Yerba Buena Island and on dredged sandfill at nearby Treasure Island about 2 km away during the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake in California. An interpretation of the results from this analysis is presented and discussed. The major important feature of this data set is ...
متن کاملTime-frequency analysis of fetal heartbeat fluctuation using wavelet transform.
We examined whether the nonlinear control mechanism of the fetal autonomic nervous system would change in various fetal states. Eight thousand or more fetal heartbeats were detected from normal, hypoxemic, and acidemic fetuses. Fetal heart Doppler-signal intervals were determined in a high-precision autocorrelation method, and a time series of fetal heart rate fluctuation was obtained. The dist...
متن کاملThe Continuous Wavelet Transform and Variable Resolution Time–Frequency Analysis
Wavelet transforms have recently emerged as a mathematical tool for multiresolution decomposition of signals. They have potential applications in many areas of signal processing that require variable time–frequency localization. The continuous wavelet transform is presented here, and its frequency resolution is derived analytically and shown to depend exclusively on one parameter that should be...
متن کاملBoundary Effects Reduction in Wavelet Transform for Time-frequency Analysis
Boundary effects are very common in the processing of finite-length signals. In this paper, we consider the problem of handling the boundary effects that can occur due to improper extension methods. Contrary to traditional methods including zero padding, periodic extension and symmetric extension, we propose an extension algorithm based on Fourier series with properties that make it more suitab...
