Some accelerograms are affected by non-standard recording and digitization problems that mean they are often not used in strong-motion
studies. These non-standard problems cannot be corrected by the standard processing techniques that remove low and high-frequency
noise from the time-history. Records from analogue instruments are more prone to these problems but even records from digital
instruments, which are becoming increasingly common, can be affected by such errors. Since all strong-motion data is valuable
it is important to know whether any useful information can be obtained from accelerograms that are affected by such problems.
This article examines whether strong-motion records from analogue instruments that are missing their initial part due to late
triggering of the instrument and also strong-motion records from digital instruments with low A/D converter resolution can
be used for response spectral studies. It is found, by simulating such errors on high-quality strong-motion records, that
good response spectral ordinates can be obtained from such `poor-quality' records within the period range of most engineering
interest.

This contribution discusses the application of Chebyshev Type I filter for processing real earthquake records. Consideration
is given to the effects of filtering parameters (passband amplitude ripple and order of the filter) on the time series, strong-motion
parameters, Fourier Amplitude Spectrum of acceleration, and elastic displacement response spectra. Time histories of five
earthquakes with different moment magnitudes have been examined (from stations located close to the epicenters). Data processing
is based on application of bandpass Chebyshev filtering over frequency range with substantial signal to noise ratio (level
of 3 or approximately 3 dB). Applying different filters, we have monitored several important strong-motion parameters: peak
values of acceleration, velocity, and displacement; Arias intensity, acceleration/velocity spectrum intensity, significant
duration, etc. Some new results and conclusions concerning the influence of Chebyshev filter in data processing of records
have been summarized. The graphical and numerical outcomes obtained, as well as the comparison with a Butterworth causal filter,
are included in the work. The results could be potentially useful to engineering seismologists who need to evaluate and better
understand the merits of this type of filtering for strong-motion data processing. 相似文献

There remains much uncertainty on the absolute elastic wave energy released by fault rupture. Few direct estimates of the partition of seismic wave energy in ground shaking have been made. In this work, ground particle velocities from integrated accelerograms are used to compute the kinetic energy crossing unit area per unit time. Simplified theory for the near-field strong-motion case would appear to give a valid lower energy bound; the wave attenuation does not present a major problem. The partition of energy in predominantly P, S, and surface wave portions, for given frequency windows, is tabulated using strong-motion accelerograms recorded at different azimuths to the fault-sources of six California earthquakes (5.5<M
L<7.2). Checks against earlier magnitudeM
L and momentM
0 correlations indicate significantly higher overall wave energy outputs than expected, but further calibration is needed.The study demonstrates that stable estimates of frequency-dependent seismic wave energies in the nearfield can be obtained from strong-motion records. Hence, energy flux may have a wider application to risk mapping than previously thought. In particular, a shift from peak acceleration scaling to (kinetic) energy inputs for engineering design appears to involve only routine processing. 相似文献

High-frequency filtering of strong-motion records 总被引：5，自引：3，他引：2
The influence of noise in strong-motion records is most problematic at low and high frequencies where the signal to noise
ratio is commonly low compared to that in the mid-spectrum. The impact of low-frequency noise (<1 Hz) on strong-motion intensity
parameters such as ground velocities, displacements and response spectral ordinates can be dramatic and consequentially it
has become standard practice to low-cut (high-pass) filter strong-motion data with corner frequencies often chosen based on
the shape of Fourier amplitude spectra and the signal-to-noise ratio. It has been shown that response spectral ordinates should
not be used beyond some fraction of the corner period (reciprocal of the corner frequency) of the low-cut filter. This article
examines the effect of high-frequency noise (>5 Hz) on computed pseudo-absolute response spectral accelerations (PSAs). In
contrast to the case of low-frequency noise our analysis shows that filtering to remove high-frequency noise is only necessary
in certain situations and that PSAs can often be used up to 100 Hz even if much lower high-cut corner frequencies are required
to remove the noise. This apparent contradiction can be explained by the fact that PSAs are often controlled by ground accelerations
associated with much lower frequencies than the natural frequency of the oscillator because path and site attenuation (often
modelled by Q and κ, respectively) have removed the highest frequencies. We demonstrate that if high-cut filters are to be used, then their corner
frequencies should be selected on an individual basis, as has been done in a few recent studies. 相似文献

局部场地条件是决定场地地震动强度和频谱的重要因素，基于强震动和脉动记录的统计分析，获取表征场地条件影响的特征参数已成为确定工程场地设计地震动的较经济和实用方法，特别是对于大范围或难以开展现场勘测的工程场地。利用日本KiK-net台网强震动记录计算分析了台站场地地震动水平/竖向谱比（HVSR）与地表/基底谱比（SBSR）的差异，揭示SBSR/HVSR与HVSR呈对数线性分布的统计特征，并给出其定量关系，据此提出表征场地对地震动影响的修正水平/竖向谱比法。修正水平/竖向谱比法具有仅需地表观测记录的优势，并进一步考虑了场地竖向地震效应对水平/竖向谱比法精度的影响，更能合理地表征场地对地震动的影响。 相似文献

Large earthquakes are often made up of several subevents. Thus the cumulative damage is higher than for single event earthquakes. Many procedures have been developed to simulate earthquake ground motion occurring from a single energy release; however, procedures to model accelerograms with several periods of strong shaking and to relate the modelling parameters to physical variables have not been developed.In this research, a database of strong motion accelerograms from multiple event earthquakes (including the 1978 Miyagiken-Oki earthquake) the 1968 Tokachi-Oki earthquake, the 1983 Nihonkai-Chubu earthquake, and the 1985 Michoacan earthquake) was modelled by an ARMA process, after first processing the records with multivariate variance and frequency stabilizing transformations. The modelling parameters were related to the time, magnitude and location of each subevent and to the site conditions using a regression analysis. 相似文献

The range of response frequencies for which spectral ordinates obtained from accelerograms may be considered reliable is limited by several factors, primary among them being the effects of filters that are routinely applied to remove noise from the records. Considerable attention has been focused on the low‐frequency limit of the usable spectral ordinates because of various engineering applications requiring long‐period spectral accelerations or displacements but only recently have rational approaches to selecting the high‐frequency limit been proposed. Since there are applications for which the high‐frequency spectral ordinates are important, the approaches to this issue presented in the recent studies are reviewed and their application to the ground‐motion database from Europe and the Middle East is explored. On the basis of the results of these analyses, it is concluded that a large proportion of this dataset can be used to provide reliable estimates of response spectral ordinates at much shorter periods than may have previously been considered feasible.

Ninety-two strong-motion earthquake records from the California region, U.S.A., have been statistically studied using principal component analysis in terms of twelve important standardized strong-motion characteristics. The first two principal components account for about 57 per cent of the total variance. Based on these two components the earthquake records are classified into nine groups in a two-dimensional principal component plane. Also a unidimensional engineering rating scale is proposed. The procedure can be used as an objective approach for classifying and rating future earthquakes. 相似文献

For designing a structure to withstand the effects of strong earthquake ground motions, it is necessary to characterize the type of motion that probably affects the structure. The strong-motion accelerograms contain numerous data regarding the source, path, and receiver. Variables such as the Richter magnitude, hypocenter depth, duration of the event, and focal mechanism relate to the source. The soil parameter and distance to epicenter, relate to the path. The application of autoregressive moving average (ARMA) process in modeling an earthquake accelerogram of three different regions of Iran reveals a formulation, which relates the physical variables via a regression analysis. In order to generate time history data of a probable future earthquake, it is recommended to use the regression equations for a specific type of earthquake focal mechanism if the future earthquake mechanism and physical variables are known; otherwise, regional equations are more suitable. 相似文献

Reference database for seismic ground-motion in Europe (RESORCE) 总被引：7，自引：5，他引：2
S. Akkar M. A. Sandıkkaya M. Şenyurt A. Azari Sisi B. Ö. Ay P. Traversa J. Douglas F. Cotton L. Luzi B. Hernandez S. Godey 《Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering》2014,12(1):311-339
This paper presents the overall procedure followed in order to assemble the most recent pan-European strong-motion databank: Reference Database for Seismic Ground-Motion in Europe (RESORCE). RESORCE is one of the products of the SeIsmic Ground Motion Assessment (SIGMA; projet-sigma.com) project. RESORCE is intended to be a single integrated accelerometric databank for Europe and surrounding areas for use in the development and testing of ground-motion models and for other engineering seismology and earthquake engineering applications. RESORCE aims to contribute to the improvement of earthquake risk studies in Europe and surrounding areas. RESORCE principally updates and extends the previous pan-European strong-motion databank (Ambraseys et al. in Bollettino di Geofisica Teorica ed Applicata 45:113–129, 2004a) with recently compiled Greek, Italian, Swiss and Turkish accelerometric archives. The updates also include earthquake-specific studies published in recent years. The current content of RESORCE includes 5,882 multi-component and uniformly processed accelerograms from 1,814 events and 1,540 strong-motion stations. The moment magnitude range covered by RESORCE is $2.8 \le \hbox {M}_{\mathrm{w}} \le 7.8$ . The source-to-site distance interval extends to 587 km and distance information is given by the common point- and extended-source distance measures. The paper presents the current features of RESORCE through simple statistics that also quantify the differences in metadata and strong-motion processing with respect to the previous version of the pan-European strong-motion databank. 相似文献

This paper deals with the use of ARMA models in earthquake engineering. Tools and methods applied to strong ground motion are discussed emphasizing simulation of probabilistic earthquake response spectra. The ARMA models are applied to Icelandic earthquake data and a tentative model for Icelandic earthquakes is presented. This model, which is derived using 54 accelerograms, is based on a low-order, time-invariant ARMA process excited by Gaussian white noise and amplitude modulated using a simple envelope function to account for the non-stationary characteristics. This simple model gives a reasonable fit to the observed ground motion. Further, this model produces accurate earthquake response spectra, which, combined with accompanying attenuation and duration formulae, might be useful in earthquake hazard and risk assessment. 相似文献

An array of 24 strong-motion accelerometers produced records for the New-Lian River Bridge, a five-span continuous bridge, during 25 February 1995 earthquake (weak motion) and 25 June 1995 earthquake (strong motion). This paper describes the application of linear discrete-time system identification methodology to the array of strong-motion measurements, in order to assess seismic response characteristics of the bridge. The structural system identification will concentrate not only on the global identification but also on the local structural system identification. Results of this application show that: (1) weak and strong ground excitation will induce significant differences on the dynamic response of the bridge; (2) linear models provide an excellent fit to the measured motions of the bridge from the records of these two seismic events; (3) the rigid-body rocking of the bridge pier during strong shaking is significant and cannot be ignored during identification; (4) the transverse motion at mid-span of the bridge is controlled by the quasi-static response from the boundary system and this phenomenon is quite significant during strong ground excitation. Also, systematic estimates of modal damping ratio and equivalent assessments of pier stiffness developed in the bridge during earthquake are discussed. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Current empirical ground-motion prediction equations for Europe and their application to Eurocode 8 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
The first ground-motion prediction equation derived from European and Middle Eastern strong-motion data was published more
than 30 years ago; since then strong-motion networks and the resulting databank of accelerograms in the region have expanded
significantly. Many equations for the prediction of peak ground-motion parameters and response spectral ordinates have been
published in recent years both for the entire Euro-Mediterranean and Middle Eastern region as well as for individual countries
within this region. Comparisons among empirical ground-motion models for these parameters, developed using large regional
datasets, do not support the hypothesis of there being significant differences in earthquake ground-motions from one area
of crustal seismicity to another. However, there are certain regions within Europe—affected by different tectonic regimes—for
which the existing pan-European equations may not be applicable. The most recent European equations make it possible to now
implement overdue modifications to the presentation of seismic design actions in Eurocode 8 that allow an improved approximation
to the target uniform hazard spectrum (UHS). Using these recent equations, this study outlines a new approach via which an
approximation to the UHS may be constructed using hazard maps calculated for peak ground velocity and the corner period T
D in addition to the maps for peak ground acceleration that underpin the current stipulations of Eurocode 8. 相似文献

In this article we present the modelling of uncertainty in strong-motion studies for engineering applications, particularly
for the assessment of earthquake hazard. We examine and quantify the sources of uncertainty in the basic variables involved
in ground motion estimation equations, including those associated with the seismological parameters, which we derive from
a considerable number of strong-motion records. Models derived from regression analysis result in ground motion equations
with uncertain parameters, which are directly related to the selected basic variables thus providing an uncertainty measure
for the derivative variable. These uncertainties are exemplified and quantified. An alternative approach is presented which
is based on theoretical modelling defining a functional relationship on a set of independent basic variables. Uncertainty
in the derivative variable is then readily obtained when the uncertainties of the basic variables have been defined. In order
to simplify the presentation, only the case of shallow strike-slip earthquakes is presented. We conclude that the uncertainty
is approximately the same as given by the residuals typical for regression modelling. This implies that uncertainty in ground
motion modelling cannot be reduced below certain limits, which is in accordance with findings reported in the literature.
Finally we discuss the implications of the presented methodology in hazard analyses, which is sensitive to the truncation
of the internal error term, commonly given as an integral part of ground motion estimation equations. The presented methodology
does not suffer from this shortcoming; it does not require truncation of the error term and yields realistic hazard estimates.

During the past earthquakes, many valuable acceleration time histories were recorded by analog and digital accelerometers. These records are important sources of information in the field of earthquake engineering and engineering seismology. However, a large number of these records are contaminated by noise and it is necessary to correct them for practical applications. On the other hand, only a few records can be corrected using conventional filtering because of mathematical limitations of the method. However, advances in the field of time–frequency analysis and wavelet transform theory provide useful non-linear and adaptive de-noising methods for removing of non-stationary and high-energy noise from the recorded signals. In this paper, the characteristics and capabilities of the modified non-linear adaptive wavelet de-noising method are examined for correction of highly noisy strong motion records. In the frequency domain, it is shown that this method can attenuate the noise in the whole frequency range of engineering interest while in the time domain it can detect and remove non-stationary noise. In addition, the displacement response spectra of these wavelet de-noised records are more stable than conventional filtered records with respect to different correction functions. It is found that a large number of noisy acceleration records that are usually discarded from sets of records used for estimating the ground motions can be corrected using this new method. 相似文献

Prediction of peak ground acceleration is an essential element in engineering seismology and it has received great attention in last few decades. In this paper, a comprehensive database of the strong-motion records of the 2008 great Wenchuan Ms 8.0 earthquake is analyzed to investigate the seismic attenuation relationship and the directivity effects. In contrast to most existing seismic attenuation models, the proposed model considers explicitly the directivity effect which has primary infl uence on the magnitude of ground motion. Bayesian model updating is used to obtain the model parameters and the associated uncertainty. Comparative study is performed with the well-known Boore-Joyner-Fumal empirical formula. Results show that consideration of the directivity effect is vital in modeling the seismic attenuation relationship. 相似文献
