Effects of Digital Filtering in Data Processing of Seismic Acceleration Records
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper presents an application of digital filtering in data processing of acceleration records from earthquakes. Butterworth, Chebyshev, and Bessel filters with different orders are considered to eliminate the frequency noise. A dataset under investigation includes accelerograms from three stations, located in Turkey (Dinar, Izmit, Kusadasi), all working with an analogue type of seismograph SMA-1. Records from near-source stations to the earthquakes (i.e., with a distance to the epicenter less than 20 km) with different moment magnitudes Mw = 3.8, 6.4, and 7.4 have been examined. We have evaluated the influence of the type of digital filter on time series (acceleration, velocity, displacement), on some strong motion parameters (PGA, PGV, PGD, etc.), and on the FAS (Fourier amplitude spectrum) of acceleration. Several 5%-damped displacement response spectra applying examined filtering techniques with different filter orders have been shown. SeismoSignal software tool has been used during the examples.

متن کاملAnalytical study of seismic durability and its destructive effects on structures and distribution of accelerated seismic durability of Iran
Background and objective: Experience with past earthquakes and numerical analysis confirms that the durability of strong earth motion, significantly can affect the amount of failure of civil engineering systems. However, if the durability is related to a parameter which describes the intensity of the earth's motion, such as maximum velocity or maximum acceleration or spectral acceleration, then...
متن کاملUsing a novel method for random noise reduction of seismic records
Random or incoherent noise is an important type of seismic noise, which can seriously affect the quality of the data. Therefore, decreasing the level of this category of noises is necessary for increasing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of seismic records. Random noises and other events overlap each other in time domain, which makes it difficult to attenuate them from seismic records. In this r...
متن کاملComparative Analysis of Two Seismic Response Analysis Programs in the Actual Soft Field
SHAKE2000 and DEEPSOIL are the two most important programs to calculate the response analysis of soil layer. In order to analyze the similarities and differences between them, and to guide the improvement of the method and program of seismic response analysis of soil layer, 25 KiK net seismic records from 9 stations were selected as the research objects in this paper, from the aspects of surfac...
متن کاملSeismic Design of Steel Structures Based on Ductility and Incremental Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis
In this paper a simple tool for seismic design of steel structures for a selected ductility level is presented. For this purpose, a consistent set of earthquakes is selected and sorted based on the maximum acceleration of ground surface. The selected records are applied as the base motion to a single-degree-of-freedom system with strain hardening and the maximum response acceleration is determi...
