Deriving amplification factors from simple site parameters using generalized regression neural networks: implications for relevant site proxies
Abstract Most modern seismic codes account for site effects using an amplification factor (AF) that modifies the rock acceleration response spectra in relation to a “site condition proxy,” i.e., a parameter related to the velocity profile at the site under consideration. Therefore, for practical pur...
