Time histories of strong ground motion records are of great importance in the field of
structural earthquake engineering. They are used as input data in various studies aiming at …

Strong ground shaking causes severe damages to man-made facilities and sometimes
induce loss of human lives. Studies of the characteristics of observed accelerograms from …

Due to rapid developments in structural analysis and computational facilities, nonlinear time-
history analysis is becoming more common in seismic analysis and design of structures …

The purpose of this research is to generate a PULSE-like acceleration spectrum from the
horizontal component of a non-PULSE-like acceleration spectrum. Three different methods …

With growing of civilization and population in urban areas, the seismic vulnerability of man-
made structures is also growing. This is more significant in regions with high seismic …

Based on the main features of the computer program THGE, the paper reviews the
techniques which are available for the construction of an accelerogram whose response …

The sets of records developed for the SAC Steel Project are classified according to the level
of seismic hazard and specific geographic region, and have been used extensively for …

Seismic design and performance assessment of structures require employing earthquake
loadings and determining the responses of structures using nonlinear analysis. Among the …

Seismic design codes generally define ground shaking in the form of a response spectrum
of acceleration and allow using response spectrum compatible time history records in linear …

The Artificial Accelerograms have been developed for assessing the dynamic response of
structures. Considering seismological properties of the site are necessary for the best …
