摘要
The characterization of the prominent features of near-fault pulse-like ground motions is under scrutiny. Relationships between pulse characteristics and the performance of structures are here established. Two wavelet energy-based signal processing procedures are introduced. The aim is the construction of simplified signals containing the prominent features of the data distribution recorded from pulse-like earthquakes; signals that can be efficiently used in the design of civil engineering structures, increasing the safety and reliability of the structural design itself. The first procedure is based on the analysis of the absolute input energy. The second one considers the relative input energy. Comparisons with other wavelet-based earthquake analyses are developed.
