Abstract Nakamura (Q Rep Railway Tech Res Inst 30: 25–33, 1989) popularized the application of the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) analysis of microtremor …
During a quarter of a century, the main characteristics of the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio of ambient noise HVSRN have been extensively used for site effect assessment. In …
Accurate ground motion prediction requires detailed site effect assessment, but in urban areas where such assessments are most important, geotechnical surveys are difficult to …
The InSight lander will deliver geophysical instruments to Mars in 2018, including seismometers installed directly on the surface (Seismic Experiment for Interior Structure …

Abstract The Horizontal-to-Vertical spectral ratios of microtremors (MHVR) have been utilized as a convenient tool to extract a predominant frequency at a target site. The so …
We have been discussing the validity of using the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratios (HVRs) as a substitute for S-wave amplifications after Nakamura first proposed the idea in …
The horizontal-to-vertical (H/V) spectral ratio inversion is a traditional technique for deriving the local subsurface structure on Earth. We calculated the H/V from the ambient vibrations at …
Investigations made to evaluate the site-effect characteristics and to develop a reliable site classification scheme have received paramount importance for the urban areas planning …
A combined set of multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) and single-station microtremor horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (MHVSR) testing was performed at over 190 …
