Journal ArticleDOI
The Variability of Ground-Motion Prediction Models and Its Components
Linda Al Atik,Norman A. Abrahamson,Julian J. Bommer,Frank Scherbaum,Fabrice Cotton,Nicolas Kuehn +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method to reduce the impact of sigma on the results of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) by integrating the full distribution of ground motions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Criteria for selecting and adjusting ground-motion models for specific target regions: Application to Central Europe and rock sites
TL;DR: These procedures are applied to select and adjust ground-motion models for the analysis of seismic hazard at rock sites in West Central Europe, chosen for illustrative purposes particularly because it highlights the issue of using ground- motion models derived from small magnitude earthquakes in theAnalysis of hazard due to much larger events.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Use of Logic Trees for Ground-Motion Prediction Equations in Seismic-Hazard Analysis
Julian J. Bommer,Frank Scherbaum,Hilmar Bungum,Fabrice Cotton,Fabio Sabetta,Norman A. Abrahamson +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the sensitivity of the ground-motion models to these conversions is shown, especially the measure of source-to-site distance, highlighting the need to take into account any incompatibilities among the selected equations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of shallow shear wave velocity profiles in the Cologne, Germany area using ambient vibrations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used both single-station and array methods to determine shallow shear velocity site profiles in the vicinity of the city of Cologne, Germany from ambient vibration records.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scaling Relations of Earthquake Source Parameter Estimates with Special Focus on Subduction Environment
TL;DR: In this article, a large database of source parameter estimates of 283 earthquakes was compiled, and scaling relations were fitted with linear least-square as well as orthogonal regression and analyzed regarding the difference between continental and subduction zone/oceanic relationships.
