Site amplifications at over 100 sites in the frequency range of 0.1–10Hz were investigated in
and around Jabalpur city of central India using the conventional Nakamura technique of
computing H/V spectral ratios, to estimate the predominant frequencies and corresponding
amplifications at each site. To validate these results, Multichannel Analysis of Surface
Waves (MASW) technique was adopted, coupled with refraction measurements over short
profiles (∼ 100m) resulting in detailed images of shear wave and primary wave velocity …
