Article
This article summarizes the Next Generation Attenuation (NGA) Subduction (NGA-Sub) project, a major research program to develop a database and ground motion models (GMMs) for subduction regions. A comprehensive database of subduction earthquakes recorded worldwide was developed. The database includes a total of 214,020 individual records from 1,880...

The NGA-West2 project database expands on its predecessor to include worldwide ground motion data recorded from shallow crustal earthquakes in active tectonic regimes post-2000 and a set of small-to-moderate-magnitude earthquakes in California between 1998 and 2011. The database includes 21,336 (mostly) three-component records from 599 events. The...

The NGA-West2 project is a large multidisciplinary, multi-year research program on the Next Generation Attenuation (NGA) models for shallow crustal earthquakes in active tectonic regions. The research project has been coordinated by the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER), with extensive technical interactions among many individua...
Article
The hanging wall (HW) effect is defined as the increase in ground motion at short distances for sites on the hanging wall side of a rupture when compared to sites on the footwall (FW) side at the same closest distance. In general, it is a geometrical effect due to the use of a closest distance metric, such as rupture distance, that does not capture...

The characterization of the magnitude and type of potential ground movements during major earthquakes and its resulting impact on buildings and lifelines is an integral part of the seismic risk assessment for the Anchorage downtown area. The earthquake ground motions, site topography, peak dynamic shear strength of the Bootlegger Cove formation, an...

The 2011 M W ¼ 9.0 Tohoku-oki earthquake generated a large number of unique soil liquefaction case histories, including cases with strong ground motion recordings on liquefiable or potentially liquefiable soils. We have compiled a list of 22 strong motion stations (SMS) where surface evidence of liquefaction was observed and 16 SMS underlain by geo...
