Engineering implication of ground motion A/V ratio
Abstract
An earthquake data set consisting of 45 strong motion records was analyzed to investigate the significance of the peak ground acceleration-to-velocity (A/V) ratio as a parameter to indicate the dynamic characteristics of earthquake ground motions. It was found that the A/V ratio of ground motions is a viable indicator of the M (magnitude)-R (epicentral distance) relationships associated with the motions. Due to its tacit correlation with the …
