Abstract:
The NGA-West2 research program, coordinated by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER), is a major effort to produce refined models for predicting ground-motion response spectra. This study presents new models for ground-motion directionality developed as part of that project. Using a database of recorded strong ground motions, empirical models have been developed for a variety of quantities related to direction-dependent spectra.
