Turkey Flat Strong-Motion Array
Cross-section Schematic
(showing location of accelerometers: R – rock sites, V – valley
alluvium sites, D – downhole sites).
"REQUIRED" Strong-Motion Test
Predictions (both horizontal components):
•Fourier Amplitude Spectral
Ratios:
1) Xi
/ R1
given R1 (where Xi means
D1, D2, D3, V1, V2, R2)
2) V1 / D3, D2 / D3 given
D3
•Acceleration
Time Histories:
1) V1, D2, D3 given R1
2) V1, D2 given D3
•Pseudovelocity
Response Spectra (5% damped) & peak values displacement,
velocity, acceleration:
1) Xi
given R1 (where Xi means
D1, D2, D3, V1, V2, R2)
2) V1, D2 given D3
"OPTIONAL" Strong-Motion
Predictions:
1)
Full set of above
predictions using the “standard” geotechnical model.
2) Acceleration time
histories for V2, R2, given R1 for “preferred” geotechnical
model.
3) Acceleration time
histories for V2, R2, given R1 for “standard” geotechnical
model.
4) Compute each
prediction for vertical component of motion.
