The technical abstract paper highlights the odd behavior observed in the aftermath of the Taiwan earthquakes where stations on opposite ends of the same valley exhibit drastically different ground motion. This is believed to be due to strong directivity effects. Thank you to the GEER team and the GEER board for the opportunity to participate … Read More
This is a flagship paper that presents our work investigating updates to the way we characterize seismic site response in sedimentary basins of varying size, as well as non-basin areas. The paper details our efforts which resulted in changes to the mean estimates and associated variability as it relates to ground motion hazards, going beyond … Read More
Results and details of our work on validating earthquake simulations for use in engineering analysis and design has been published in Journal of Earthquake Spectra. See the publication page of this website to get more information and access.
