The paper outlines a probabilistic basis for the automatic estimation from observed surface wave dispersion of structural model parameters with uncertainties. Given an earth model, a wave type and pertinent parameter values, the group velocity of seismic waves can be computed from theory as a function of frequency. Such a function may also be based on the dynamic spectrum representation of an e...

The paper presents an application of digital filtering in data processing of acceleration records from earthquakes. Butterworth, Chebyshev, and Bessel filters with different orders are considered to eliminate the frequency noise. A dataset under investigation includes accelerograms from three stations, located in Turkey (Dinar, Izmit, Kusadasi), all working with an analogue type of seismograph ...

Data from three co-located wide-angle ocean-bottom seismograph experiments were used to make a new two-dimensional tomographic image of the East Pacific Rise at 9°N. The upper half crustal magmatic system has different seismic structure than lower half, presumably corresponding with differences in melt storage and cooling. region is narrow (∼4.5 km wide 2–3 depth bsf) estimated contain higher f...

In some countries with seismicity, an adequate detection network is essential to assess seismic hazards. The Instituto Geográfico Nacional (National Geographic Institute/IGN) of Spain manages a strong motion distributed throughout the whole country and earthquake composed velocity stations. This paper aims at studying development Spanish National Seismic Network (focusing on mainland Balearics)...

A method is presented for determining the local magnitude, NIL, from records from seismoscopes and similar instruments. The technique extrapolates the maximum response of the standard Wood-Anderson seismograph, which determines ML, from the maximum response of the seismoscope. The standard deviation of the steady-state response of an oscillator subjected to white noise excitation is used to der...

Abstract In order to quantitatively evaluate the one-dimensional site seismic response analysis methods, this article selected 2418 ground motion records of Japan KiK-net strong-motion seismograph network and groups acceleration spectra calculated by DEEPSOIL, SHAKE2000, SOILQUAKE SOILRESPONSE, then` used dynamic time warping (DTW) algorithm calculate DTW distance between measured spectrum spec...
