    Development of Region-Specific New Generation Attenuation Relations for North India Using Artificial Neural Networks
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021) Huang, H.; Ramkrishnan, R.; Kolathayar, S.; Garg, A.; Yadav, J.S.
    Present study focuses on developing region-specific New Generation Ground Motion Prediction Models using Artificial intelligence technique for North India purely based on a measured ground motion data from specific region. Simple single hidden layered feed forward multilayer perceptron networks with back-propagation learning algorithm are used. A total of 280 data points of recorded strong motion data from the Kangra and Uttar Pradesh (UP) arrays, made available by the Program for Excellence in Strong Motion Studies (PESMOS), were used to train these networks. The first model predicts Moment Magnitude for a given Hypocentral Distance and Peak Ground Acceleration. The second model predicts Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) for a given Hypocentral Distance (HPD) and Moment Magnitude (MM). Performance analysis, Uncertainty analysis and analysis of interactive effects have been done to test the reliability of the generated models. Optimization analysis was also performed to predict possible inputs of the models for a given set of outputs. Models have performed reasonably well for the given amount of non-linearity in the data. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

    Joint Time Frequency Analysis Based Synthesis of Acceleration-Time History and Response Spectra for Japanese Earthquakes
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022) Ramkrishnan, R.; Devaraj, D.; Kolathayar, S.; Sitharam, T.G.
    Time–Frequency Analysis (TFA) techniques help to obtain the ideal time and frequency occurrence characteristics of earthquake motion confined in a seismic recorded signal. Time-histories from recording stations in Japan has been adopted in the present analysis, considering a large number of available data. The seismograms were transformed using Gabor transform, a Linear Joint TFA method, to assess their frequency content by generating their Gabor coefficients. Average Gabor coefficients were estimated for recorded seismograms within a magnitude range of 5.5–6.0 and hypocentral distances ranging from 0 to 50 km. The estimated average Gabor coefficients were used to synthesize a generalized acceleration-time history for the specific distance and magnitude ranges using Gabor Expansion, without compromising the frequency content of the waves. Additionally, it is demonstrated that the response spectra of the synthesized signal and the original signal match very well. These response spectra will be valuable for the nonlinear investigation of structures in this region. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
