Predicting earthquake ground shaking due to 1D soil layering and 3D basin structure in SW British Columbia, Canada

Predicting earthquake ground shaking due to 1D soil layering and 3D basin structure in SW British Columbia, Canada

This thesis develops and explores two methodologies to assess earthquake ground shaking in southwestern British Columbia based on 1D soil layering and 3D basin structure. To assess site response based on soil layering, microtremor array measurements were conducted at two sites of contrasting geology...
