چکیده

The objectives of this task are to conduct research on seismic hazards, and to provide relevant input on the expected levels of these hazards to other tasks. Other tasks requiring this input include those dealing with inventory, fragility curves, rehabilitation strategies and demonstration projects. The corresponding input is provided in various formats depending on the intended use: as peak ground motion parameters and/or response spectral values for a given magnitude, epicentral distance and site conditions; or as time histories for scenario earthquakes that are selected based on the disaggregated seismic hazard mapped by the U.S. Geological Survey and used in the NEHRP Recommended Provisions for the Development of Seismic Regulations for New Buildings (BSSC, 1998).

Preliminary Analysis for Characteristics of Strong Ground Motion from Gigantic Earthquakes

The 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku earthquake (Mw9.0), which produced many strong motion records, provides an opportunity to examine the characteristics of strong ground motion from a gigantic earthquake. In this paper, the preliminary analysis of the ground motion attenuation, spectral shape and duration was performed using the selected strong motion records of the earthquake. The result...

Stochastic 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...

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...

A 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 ...

Numerical Simulation of Seismic Wave Propagation and Strong Motions in 3D Heterogeneous Structure

Introduction The heterogeneities in the crust and upper mantle structure as well as the complex source rupture process have an important influence on regional seismic wavefield, particularly for high-frequency waves. Moreover small-scale heterogeneities such as for the sedimentary basin introduce significant amplification of ground motion, which lead to long ground shaking over several minutes ...
