Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 10Site Response Analysis in Performance Based Approach(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024-03-01) Ansal, Atilla; Tönük, Gökçe; Sadeghzadeh, Shima; Sadegzadeh, ShimaA performance based approach for site response analysis requires a probabilistic approach accounting for the observed variability in soil stratification and engineering properties of the soil layers. The major variability in site-specific response analysis arises from the uncertainties induced by the (a) local seismic hazard assessment, (b) selection and scaling of the hazard compatible input earthquake time histories, (c) soil stratification and engineering properties of encountered soil and rock layers, and (d) method of site response analysis. Even though the uncertainties related to first item, local seismic hazard assessment, has primary importance on the outcome of the site-specific response analyses, the discussion in this article focuses on the possible uncertainties in selection and scaling of the hazard compatible input earthquake time histories, soil stratification, thickness, type and their engineering properties, depth of ground water table and bedrock and properties of the engineering bedrock. One alternative may be to conduct site response analyses for large number of soil profiles generated by Monte Carlo simulations using relatively large number of hazard compatible acceleration time histories to assess probabilistic performance based design acceleration spectra and acceleration time histories calculated on the ground surface with respect to different performance levels. A remaining issue may be considered as the variability induced by 1D, 2D, and 3D site response analysis.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Microzonation With Respect To Ground Shaking Intensity(CRC Press/Balkema, 2019) Tönük, Gökçe; Kurtuluş, Aslı; Ansal, AtillaSeismic microzonation is conducted to assess the seismic hazard on the ground surface with respect to ground shaking intensity. A probabilistic seismic hazard study is conducted to define earthquake characteristics on the rock outcrop. A grid system is generated to divide the investigation area into cells according to geological and geotechnical data. Site characterizations are based on available information to define soil profiles for each cell with soil stratifications and shear wave velocities extending down to the engineering bedrock. Site-specific 1D site response analyses are carried out for all soil profiles, based on the engineering properties of encountered soil layers, selection and scaling of the sufficient number of input acceleration time histories compatible with the regional seismicity and earthquake source characteristics. The microzonation study carried out for Zeytinburnu town on the European side of Istanbul with respect to ground shaking intensity is presented. The importance of the selection of the microzonation parameters for assessing ground shaking intensity is discussed. © 2019 Associazione Geotecnica Italiana, Rome, Italy.
