The largest earthquakes typically occur at plate boundaries
Earthquakes almost always occur on faults, which represent the boundarybetween two rigid media that are capable of relative motion
Earthquakes that occur on land and close enough to the surface often leavevisible evidence in the form of ground dislocatione.g. the San Andreas fault.
Notes:
From Faccioli, 2005
Earthquakes are generally classified depending on their focal depth:Crustal (shallow) up to60 km
Intermediate from 60 km to 150-200 km
Deep up to 600 km

Where two plates are sliding horizontally past one another atransform-fault boundarywill form.
Sliding boundary:
Earthquakes originate in the transform fault, or inparallel strike-slip faults, when a frictional
resistance in the fault system is overcome and theplates suddenly move.
Most transform faults are found in theoceanwherethey offset spreading ridges creating a zigzagpa ern e ween e p a es. ome rans orm au s

E.g.:The San Andreasis one of the few transformfaults exposed on land. The San Andreas faultzone, is about 1,300 km long and in places tens of
kilometers wide. It slices through two thirds of thelength of California. Along it, the Pacific Plate hasbeen grinding horizontally past the North AmericanPlate for 10 million years, at an average rate of
about 5 cm/yr.

ML: Local or Richter magnitude
It was defined in 1930s by Richter in California on the basis of two mainobservations:
Peak amplitudes on seismograms from 2 events of different intensities,recorded at the same focal depth, by the same seismograph, at similardistances are different:the strongest event generates higher amplitudes.
station, it can generate a seismogram with higher amplitude than the strongerevent.
If earthquakes are recorded at various stations at various distances, therecorded peaks of amplitude as function of distances give a curve for eachearthquake. The higher curve is associated to the strongest event and thepeakamplitudes decrease with distance in a similar manner for differentearthquakes.

In log scale the amplitude difference isdistance independent
Quantitative relative measurebetween two earthquakes in mm
Absolute measure needs a referencezero earthquake with M=0:the event that generates an amplitudepeak of 0.001 mm at 100 km,recorded by the Wood-Anderson
(WA) seismograph
The event with M=0 is the smallerevent recordable by WA instrument

robustness, i.e. minor differences in diagnostics should not make large differences in the
assessed intensity; further to this, the scale should be understood and used as acompromise solution, since no intensity scale can hope to encompass all the possibledisagreements between diagnostics that may occur in practice
such disagreements may also reflect differences in cultural conditions in the regions
EMS scale: main aspects
basis: MSK scale
simplicity of use
rejection of any intensity corrections for soil conditions or geomorphological effects,because detailed macroseismic observations should just be a tool for finding andelaborating such amplification effects
understanding of intensity values as being representative for any village, small town orpart of a larger town instead of being assigned to a point (for one house etc)

It is made by converting instrumental ground motion parameters into pseudo-intensityvalues (Yamazaki et al 1998); so one has no idea whether a quoted intensity value for amodern Japanese earthquake actually corresponded to the description of effects for thatdegree of the scale being observed or not (Musson et al., 2010)
Sites where equal seismic intensities were observed did not necessarily suffer the samedegree of damage, since damage depends on the type of construction used and on thenature of the seismic ground motion
Seismic intensity is a value observed at a site where a seismic intensity meter is installed.
JMA scale
Seismic intensity is usually measured on the ground surface, so in general, the shaking
on upper stories of buildings may be amplified greatly
A large earthquake generates long-period seismic waves. Even at locations far from theepicenter, where the seismic intensity is rather small, the long-period waves mayoccasionally cause unusual types of damage, such as the sloshing of oil in a tank ortroubles with elevators
The scale is prepared based mainly on the examples collected from recent destructiveearthquakes. It is subject to revision when new examples are collected or the present
descriptions become inconsistent with actual situations, due to the improvement of
earthquake resistant buildings, etc.

Intensity is often used in seismic hazard, since it relates directly to damageand yields hazard values, which are relevant to planners and insurers
Site classification by intensity is associated to quality and typology ofconstructions and depends on housing concentration. Therefore, a strongearthquake that strikes a desert site can be classified with a low intensitydegree, while a moderate earthquake which strikes a site with vulnerable
Notes:
buildings and causes victims is classified with a relative high intensity

A magnitude scale expresses the seismic energy released by anearthquake, while an intensity scale denotes how strongly an earthquakeaffects a specific place.

it allows to take into account the uncertainties in location and magnitude ofearthquakes, their process of time occurrence and ground motion attenuation
it assumes exponential distribution of magnitude it assumes that earthquakes have no memory (Poissonoccurrence model)
Adopted method: Cornell-McGuire method (1968)
Steps of analysis:
Step 1: definition of
earthquake sourcescharacterized by uniformseismic potential
(fromReiter, 1993)
Step 2: definition of
earthquake probabilitydistribution (GR) foreach source
Step 4:definition of seismic
hazard integrating effects ofall earthquakes of differentsizes, occurring at differentlocations in differentsources at differentprobabilities of occurrence

Creation of a unified earthquake catalogue for the period 1900-2004:Used sources:
1) Historical earthquakeinformation from different Arabic, Islamic, Jewish and Christianhistorians who assembled descriptions of earthquakes mentioned in ancient literature
2) Lists ofhistorical earthquakesfrom revised earthquake catalogs of the region andadded after cross checking the quality and the authenticity of the data sourcespublished.
3) Instrumental data available from the beginning of the 20" century owing to theoperation of seismic stations in Egypt (HLW), Lebanon (KSR), Israel (JER, EIL) and
several tens of stations in Europe.Earthquake information for the period 1900-1982 from:
International Seismological Summary (ISS), England International Seismological Center (ISC), England National Earthquake Information Service (NEIS), USA
Compilation of Arieh et al. (1985).4) Instrumental earthquakedata from :

ST should be applied when the slopes belong to two-dimensional topographicirregularities, such as long ridges and cliffs of height greater than about 30 m.
STis recommended for slope angles >15o:
a)isolated cliffs and slopes: ST> 1.2 for sites near the top edge
b)ridges with crest width significantly less than the base width: ST> 1.4 near the top ofthe slopes for average slope angles greater then 30o, ST> 1,2 for smaller slope
angles
c)presence of a loose surface layer: STgiven in a) and b) increased by at least 20%
d)spatial variation of amplification factor: STmay be assumed to decrease as a linearfunction of the height above the base of the cliff or ridge, and to be unity at the base
In general, seismic amplification also decreases rapidly with depth within the ridge.Therefore, topographic effects to be reckoned with in stability analyses are largest andmostly superficial along ridge crests, and much smaller on deep seated landslides wherethe failure surface passes near to the base

We could define an inelastic response spectrum integrating the equation of motion of an SDOFsystem that is inelastic instead of being elastic. But we would rather define rules to pass fromthe elastic spectrum to the inelastic one, since for an Engineer the starting point is the elasticresponse spectrum of the design codes.

For seismic collapse prevention, the following approximate relationship applies:

8/13/2019 Modulus 1
129/276
If the strength of the structure reduces, the stiffness typically reduces too; If the masses do not change significantly (which is typically the case), the fundamental
period T of the softer structure is longer; Structures with a longer fundamental period T are typically subjected to larger deformations,
i.e., the deformation demand is larger.
General definition of ductility
-
8/13/2019 Modulus 1
130/276
Comments The ductility capacity is a property of the structural member; The ductility demand is a result of the seismic excitation and also a function of the
dynamic properties of the structure;
A structural member survives the earthquake if: Ductility capacity Ductility demand; The structural member collapse when locally the deformation capacity of the structural
materials (i.e., their strain capacities) are reached and exceeded. The ductility capacity istherefore exhausted.

Design spectra are very useful tools to design structures for the expected seismicdemand. Design spectra represent the average effect of an earthquake with designintensity
,demand for a certain period range
This characteristic of design spectra should be considered when designing structures:The seismic design should aim at structures that are as robust as possible

IntroductionThere are 2 philosophy for seismic analysis:
Force-based design methods Force-based procedures are currently the most used design methods in practice, and
corresponding provisions are widely available in almost all design codes worldwide. For this reason in most of this section force-based procedures are discussed in order to
ensure their meaningful application in design practice. However, force-based procedures are affected by several drawbacks that should beknown in order to avoid serious mistakes
-
8/13/2019 Modulus 1
192/276
known in order to avoid serious mistakes.
Displacement-based design methods The intensive development of displacement-based design procedures started about 10 to
15 years ago. Such procedures are very promising, however they are still mostly confined to the
academic environment. In many cases the use of displacement-based design procedures in practice require the
engineer to deviate from current code provisions and take full responsibility for that.
However, in the near future they will find more and more space in design codes. Hence itis important to be aware of some principles of displacement based design method andthey will be given in this lecture

Important outcome!
The equation of motion of the original system is transformed in n equation of motion ofSDOF systems, with n the number of degree of freedom of the MDOF system
If the system is dissipative, but tC is diagonal (this is certainly the case when C isexpressed as C=M+K) what is true for the non dissipative MDOF system is valid also forthe dissipative one
n can be less than the number of degree of freedom of the system, because if n is big

Equivalent lateral forces
It is a simple linear static analysis method allowed by almost all design codes worldwide. The dynamic action of the earthquake on the structure is replaced by lateral static forces
called equivalent lateral forces. The methods can be applied to structural systems which can be represented by two 2D
structural models, and which behaviour is not substantially influenced by higher modes of
vibration. Criteria for regularity shall be met

Higher vibration modes are neglected. The fundamental period of vibration of the building can be estimated by means of simple
equations or by means of a proper structural model. The second option is recommended.
Torsional effects are taken into account in an approximate way (e.i. increasing the forces toaccount for torsion)
The inelastic behaviour of the structure is also taken into account in an approximate waythrough inelastic design spectra.
F = mtot Sa (T1,, q, f)total equivalent lateral force
mtot : total mass of the buildingSa : spectral value taken from the design acceleration spectrum at the fundamental period ofthe building T1; the spectrum is computed assuming a damping ratio and a behaviour factorq. Additional parameters, like e.g. the importance factor f can be taken into account whilecomputing the spectral ordinate : Correction factor ranging between 0.85 and 1.0. Some codes (e.g. EC8) use to account
for the fact that in buildings with at least three storeys and translational degrees of freedom ineach horizontal direction, the effective modal mass is about 85% of the total mass.
