Motivation: • In seismic hazard analysis, development of design ground motions is a crucial step. • High levels of intensity • Expected structural behavior: Nonlinear • Approach: Response-history dynamic analysis • Requires: Ground motion time-series • Difficulties come from scarcity of previously recorded motions. • Controversies come from methods of selecting and modifying real records. • Alternative: Use simulated time-series in conjunction or in the place of real records.

Conclusion: • Developed a stochastic model for earthquake ground motion components • Created a database of principal ground motion components • Identified model parameters for the records in the database • predictive equations for model parameters in terms of F , M , R, VS30 • Identified correlation coefficients between model parameters of the components • For given F , M , R, VS30 , correlated model parameters are randomly simulated and used along with statistically independent white-noise processes to generate a pair of horizontal ground motion components in the directions of principal axes. • The proposed methods can be easily extended to simulate the vertical component.

Ground Motion Model: Advantages Extra • Small number of parameters that have physical meaning and can be easily identified by matching with features of a given accelerogram • Completely separable temporal and spectral nonstationary characteristics, which facilitates identification and interpretation of the parameters • No need for sophisticated processing of the target accelerogram, e.g. Fourier analysis or estimation of evolutionary PSD • Simple simulation of sample functions, requiring little more than generation of standard normal random variables • Form of the model facilitates nonlinear random vibration analysis (e.g., by using TELM).
