Nonlinear ground-motion amplification by sediments during the 1994 Northridge earthquake
It has been known since at least 1898 that sediments can amplify earthquake ground motion
relative to bedrock. For the weak ground motion accompanying small earthquakes, the …

Site condition evaluation using horizontal-to-vertical response spectral ratios of earthquakes in the NGA-West 2 and Japanese databases
We evaluate the usefulness of the horizontal-to-vertical (H/V) response spectral ratio as a
parameter to describe site response. In particular we compare its effectiveness with that of …
