Abstract The Horizontal-to-Vertical spectral ratios of microtremors (MHVR) have been
utilized as a convenient tool to extract a predominant frequency at a target site. The so …

In spite of the Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR or H/V) technique obtained by the
ambient vibrations is a very popular tool, a full theoretical explanation of it has been not …

We have been discussing the validity of using the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratios
(HVRs) as a substitute for S-wave amplifications after Nakamura first proposed the idea in …

A site's fundamental resonance frequency (f 0), or its reciprocal, the fundamental period (T
0), is a critical parameter in seismic studies due to its proven ability to aid in predicting local …

The main purpose of the site classification or velocity determination at a target site is to
obtain or estimate the horizontal site amplification factor (HSAF) at that site during future …

Microtremor H/V spectral ratio (MHVSR) has gained popularity to assess the dominant
frequency of soil sites. It requires measurement of ground motion due to seismic ambient …

The horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) of ambient noise is commonly used to infer a
