Description:
Containing state-of-the-art information on new developments in seismic wave
propagation, this volume features invited contributions from a select group of
researchers whose work has recently been the focus of attention in journals and at
conferences. It is designed to appeal to a broad audience of professionals working in
the fields of structural dynamics, seismology, and earthquake engineering in general.
Contents: Fundamentals of Elastic Wave Propagation for Site Amplification Studies - the
Seismic Response of Alluvial Valleys; Wave Propagation in Complex Geological Structures
and their Effects on Strong Ground Motion; Spatial Variability of Seismic Motions
Recorded over Extended Ground Surface Areas; Elastic Layered Half-Spaces Subjected to
Dynamic Surface Loads; The Thin-Layer Method in Seismology and Earthquake Engineering;
Elastic Waves in One-Dimensionally Layered Heterogeneous Soil Media; Waves in Vertically
Inhomogeneous Soils; Steady-State Dynamic Response of Poroelastic Media;
Fluid-Soil-Structure Interaction.
