Spatial variations in seismic motions
Abstract
A method for evaluating the spatial variations in strong seismic motions for a linear, homogeneous, and horizontally stratified soil layer system is presented. The procedure accounts for the focal depth and the epicentral distance, the corresponding angle of incidence, and the relative contributions of both shear and Rayleigh waves. The inclined propagation of shear waves is studied using the multiple reflection refraction theory. The range of …
