Long-period ground motion simulation and its impact on seismic response of high-rise buildings

RP Hu, YL Xu, X Zhao - Journal of Earthquake Engineering, 2018 - Taylor & Francis
This paper first critically reviews a seismological model and then a three-segment curve
model (in log-log space) to model the Qf relationship is proposed to overcome the potential …

A simple approach for estimating the first resonance peak of layered soil profiles

H Zhang, YG Zhao - Journal of Earthquake and Tsunami, 2018 - World Scientific
The first resonance peak, Gs 1, represents the amplification ratio of seismic motion when
resonance between input motion and the local site occurs. The Gs 1 is important for …
