Ambient vibration techniques such as the H/V method may have the potential to significantly
contribute to site effect evaluation, particularly in urban areas. Previous studies interpret the …

The horizontal-to-vertical (H/V) method has the potential to significantly contribute to site
effects evaluation, in particular in urban areas. Within the European project, site effects …

EURO-SEISTEST is a European test site established in the Mygdonian basin, near
Thessaloniki, in Northern Greece. Its aim is to allow detailed and well documented studies in …

We present a discontinuous Galerkin finite-element method (DG-FEM) formulation with
Convolutional Perfectly Matched Layer (CPML) absorbing boundary condition for 3-D elastic …

This paper describes the process of construction of the 2D model of Volvi's geological
structure and results of empirical and theoretical approaches to the evaluation of site …

The main purpose of the paper is to analyze seismic site effects in alluvial basins and to
discuss the influence of the knowledge of the local geology on site amplification simulations …

Using records from the EURO-SEISTEST area near Thessaloniki (Greece), we studied
empirically the amplification effects of a sedimentary valley. One of the main advantages of …

At high frequencies, the acceleration spectral amplitude decreases rapidly; this has been
modelled with the spectral decay factor κ. Its site component, κ 0, is used widely today in …

In a low‐seismicity context, the use of numerical simulations becomes essential due to the
lack of representative earthquakes for empirical approaches. The goals of the …

This paper presents results of numerical modeling of site response for Euroseistest. Ground
motion across a very detailed model of the subsoil of this valley has been simulated for …
