Energy Variation of Earthquake Ground Motion in Time Frequency Domain Using Wavelet Transform


Abstract eng:
The characteristics of seismic wave energy are examined in this study. The attenuation equation of total seismic wave energy with respect to moment magnitude and hypocentral distance is proposed in order to estimate the seismic intensity. It is concluded that the total seismic wave energy should be better than PGA to estimate seismic motion with respect to earthquake magnitude stably. We also show the time – frequency characteristic of the seismic wave energy of the non-stationary earthquake ground motions based on wavelet transform using Meyer wavelet. It is found that the frequency distribution of seismic wave energy can be mainly explained by the omega-square source model.
