This book was released on 2011-01-03 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses current activities in strong-motion networks around the globe, covering issues related to designing, maintaining and disseminating information from these arrays. The book is divided into three principal sections. The first section includes recent developments in regional and global ground-motion predictive models. It presents discussions on the similarities and differences of ground motion estimations from these models and their application to design spectra as well as other novel procedures for predicting engineering parameters in seismic regions with sparse data. The second section introduces topics about the particular methodologies being implemented in the recently established global and regional strong-motion databanks in Europe to maintain and disseminate the archived accelerometric data. The final section describes major strong-motion arrays around the world and their historical developments. The last three chapters of this section introduce projects carried out within the context of arrays deployed for seismic risk studies in metropolitan areas. Audience: This timely book will be of particular interest for researchers who use accelerometric data extensively to conduct studies in earthquake engineering and engineering seismology.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geophysicists use seismic signals to image structures in the Earth's interior, to understand the mechanics of earthquake and volcanic sources, and to estimate their associated hazards. Keiiti Aki developed pioneering quantitative methods for extracting useful information from various portions of observed seismograms and applied these methods to many problems in the above fields. This volume honors Aki's contributions with review papers and results from recent applications by his former students and scientific associates pertaining to topics spawned by his work. Discussed subjects include analytical and numerical techniques for calculating dynamic rupture and radiated seismic waves, stochastic models used in engineering seismology, earthquake and volcanic source processes, seismic tomography, properties of lithospheric structures, analysis of scattered waves, and more. The volume will be useful to students and professional geophysicists alike.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study presents empirical ground motion prediction equations (GMPEs) for eastern North America for a particular measure of horizontal ground motion as a function of earthquake magnitude and fault type, distance from source to site, and local soil condition. The equations are for peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and 5 % damped pseudo-absolute-acceleration spectra (PSA) at periods between 0.02 sec and 1 sec. The coefficients of the GMPEs are derived by empirical regression of the new NGA-East ground motion database. The anlysis used a total of 6544 records of PGA with a distance range from less than 10 km up to 3500 km and the available data for regression become less for longer periods. The developed empirical GMPEs, though not well constrained from large magnitude observations, fit the ground motions from small to moderate magnitude (M
