In this study, the limitations of point-source stochastic simulations are investigated in terms of fundamental geophysical parameters. Within this context, a total of 6000 synthetic ground motions are generated for various magnitude (5.0 &amp<br>#8804<br>Mw &amp<br>#8804<br>7.5), source-to-site distance (less than 100 km), faulting style (shallow dipping and strike-slip) and site class (soft, stiff and rock) bins.

Abstract:
Seismic passive protection with supplemental damping devices represents an efficient strategy to produce resilient structural systems with improved seismic performances and notably reduced post-earthquake consequences. Such strategy offers indeed several advantages with respect to the ordinary seismic design philosophy: structural damages are prevented; the safety of the occupants is ensured and the system remains operational both during and right after the earthquake; no major retrofit interventions are needed but only a post-earthquake inspection (and if necessary, replacement) of dissipatio

Abstract:
Vibration control techniques have developed remarkably over the past thirty years. These solutions are usually employed to protect new rather than existing structures, for which most of the available control devices may be costly and invasive to install. Recently, Vibrating Barriers (ViBas) have been proposed as a solution to protect both new and existing buildings. By exploiting the Structure-Soil-Structure-Interaction (SSSI) phenomenon, the ViBa is constructed away from the structures to be protected allowing the characteristics of the buildings to remain unaltered. The ViBa is envisaged as

Assessment of potential ground motions in seismically active regions is essential for purposes of seismic design and analysis. Peak ground motion intensity values and frequency content of seismic excitations are required for reliable seismic design, analysis and retrofitting of structures.

These simulations provide not only the earthquake engineering parameters but also give insight into the mechanisms of the earthquakes. This thesis presents strong ground motion simulati

碩士<br>國立中央大學<br>地球科學學系<br>101<br>Attenuation relationship of peak ground acceleration is widely employed by engineers in seismic hazard estimation studies. This study was conducted by combining stochastic point-source (Boore, 2003) and equivalent-linear (Idriss & Sun, 1992) methods to simulate ground motion, and compared the results of attenuation relationship. Seismic parameters for stochastic method were selected based on previous studies (Sokolov et al., 2006; 2009). The stochastic method was performed to obtain simulated waveforms at a rock site (TAP086 station) near of Wuku downhole and a

Abstract:
<p>This study addresses the problem of characterizing strong ground motion for the purpose of computing the dynamic response of structures to earthquakes. A new probabilistic ground motion model is proposed which can act as an interface between ground motion prediction studies and structural response studies. The model is capable of capturing, with at most nine parameters, all those features of the ground acceleration history which have an important influence on the dynamic response of linear and nonlinear structures, including the amplitude and frequency content nonstationarities of the shaki

The local site effect is the important factor participate strong ground motion prediction. In this study, we used stochastic point-source method for simulating ground motion (Boore, 2005). This method has been widely used in the development of ground-motion prediction equation and in modeling the parameters that controls observed ground motion (Atkinson et al., 2009).

Abstract:
The characteristics of earthquake shaking are affected by the local site conditions. The effects of the local soil conditions are often quantified via an amplification factor (AF), which is defined as the ratio of the ground motion at the soil surface to the ground motion at a rock site at the same location. Amplification factors can be defined for any ground motion parameter, but most commonly are assessed for acceleration response spectral values at different oscillator periods. Site amplification can be evaluated for a site by conducting seismic site response analysis, which models the wave

Abstract:
Earthquake is undoubtedly one of the greatest natural disasters that can induce serious structural damage and huge losses of properties and lives. The resulting destructive consequences not only have made structural seismic analysis and design much more important but have impelled the necessity of more realistic representation of ground motions, such as inclusion of ground motion spatial variations in earthquake modelling and seismic analysis and design of structures. Recorded seismic ground motions exhibit spatial variations in their amplitudes and phases, and the spatial variabilities hav
