An improved stochastic finite-fault method based on energy

摘要

Owing to the simulated ground motion energy distribution by stochastic finite-fault method is not reasonable, near-field bedrock strong ground motion acceleration time histories are used to study. Fourier transform is adapted to analysis the variation of the energy accumulation curve with frequency. The results show that the record energy accumulation curve is a steep rise curve, 80% of total energy of the vertical ground motion is concentrated on the 2.5-15Hz, while the horizontal is mainly concentrated on the 2-11Hz. An improved stochastic finite-fault method is proposed by multiplying an amplification factor in some frequency. The results show that multiplying an amplification factor, the simulated acceleration energy accumulation curve matches to the record acceleration energy accumulation curve, and the peak of simulated acceleration response spectrum tends to the record acceleration value.
