Spatial Variation of Seismic Ground Motions - Modeling and Engineering Applications

Informationen zum Autor Aspasia Zerva Klappentext Taking a multidisciplinary approach! this book provides coverage of seismic ground motions from seismological and engineering! deterministic and stochastic! as well as physical and mathematical points of view. Zusammenfassung Taking a multidisciplinary approach, this book provides coverage from seismological and engineering, deterministic and stochastic, as well as physical and mathematical points of view. It describes the estimation of spatial variability from recorded data, its physical interpretation, and the development of spatial variability/coherency models. Inhaltsverzeichnis Introduction. Stochastic estimation of spatial variability. Parametric modeling of spatial variability. Physical characterization of spatial variability. Seismic ground-surface strains. Random vibrations for multi-support excitations. Simulations of spatially variable ground motions. Conditionally simulated ground motions. Engineering Applications.
