| Summary: | The physical meaning of phase difference controls the occurrence time of peak values of triangular series, which can be abbreviated as peak arrival time. This article describes a method for deducing the correspondence between the energy distribution characteristics in the time domain and the peak arrival time. The variation laws of acceleration time–history curve of natural seismic wave can be transformed into its energy distribution characteristics in time domain. Based on the needs of seismic engineering, this article proposes a conversion formula to describe the relationship between the peak arrival time and the energy distribution characteristics in the time domain. To ensure that the variation laws of acceleration time–history curve of artificial seismic waves are more consistent with those of natural seismic waves, a normal-fitting annealing algorithm is proposed based on the normal-fitting method. The proposed method not only considers the frequency distribution characteristics of the peak arrival time comprehensively but also optimizes the fitting parameters according to the actual situation. The results of all the experimental cases verify the rationality and reliability of the proposed method. |
