Ground Motion Model of the SLAC Site
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a ground motion model for the SLAC site. This model is based on recent ground motion studies performed at SLAC as well as on historical data. The model includes wave-like, diffusive and systematic types of motion. An attempt is made to relate measurable secondary properties of the ground motion with more basic characteristics such as the layered geological structure of the surrounding earth, depth of the tunnel, etc. This model is an essential step in evaluating sites for a future linear collider.

متن کاملStochastic Finite Fault Modeling for the 16 September 1978 Tabas, Iran, Earthquake
The main objective of this study is estimating acceleration time history of 16 September 1978 Tabas earthquake incorporating the seismological/geological source-path and site model parameters by using finite-fault simulation approach. The method generalizes the stochastic ground-motion simulation technique, developed for point sources, to the case of finite faults. It subdivides the fault plane...
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 کاملGround Motion Studies and Modeling for the Interaction Region of a Linear Collider
Ground motion may be a limiting factor in the performance of future linear colliders because it causes continuous misalignment of the focusing and accelerating elements. Understanding the ground motion, including finding driving mechanisms for the motion, studying the dependence on geology, local engineering, etc., and creating ground motion models that permit evaluation of the collider perform...
متن کاملNonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Pile Foundation Subjected to Strong Ground Motion Using Fiber Elements
In this paper, pile behavior embedded in layered soil deposits subjected to seismic loadings is analyzed using a nonlinear fiber element for simulation of soil – pile interactions. In the created model, both pile and surrounding soil are modeled using fiber elements in a practical Beam on Nonlinear Winkler Foundation (BNWF) concept. Herein, the features of DRAIN–3DX finite element software are ...
