The site-corrected synthetic PGA generated using the HVSR of the mainshock had the best misfit of 0.585.
Hence, we could identify the areas with high nonlinear soil effects by calculating the reduction in synthetic PGA using the mainshock HVSR compared to the PGA calculated using the HVSR of weak events.
The theoretical H/V ratio was calculated using the HVSR method and adjusted 1-D velocity model.
Fig. 3 Site responses calculated using the HVSR method for 16 strong-motion stations with PGA > 200 cm/s2 under strong and weak motion during the 2008 Ms8.0 Wenchuan Earthquake sequence.
We applied the same steps to site-correct the synthetic waveforms using the HVSR of weak motions and the Meinong mainshock.
Without site correction, the misfit was 1.031; the site correction using the HVSR of weak events reduced the misfit to 0.716.
The site responses of the 33 stations in the frequency range of 0.5 20.0 Hz were calculated individually using the HVSR method for strong and weak motions, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. Multiple HVSR curves produced a geometric mean, which was used to determine the site response under weak motions, while only one curve was available for strong motions.
For example, using the HVSR method together with the short-term Fourier transform, Xu (2010) identified clear soil nonlinearity for sites that recorded peak ground acceleration (PGA) >200 cm/s2.
We designed the parameters carefully to include new regional attenuation models to our stochastic modeling and applied site correction processing to the synthetic waveforms using the HVSR of the weak motions and the Meinong earthquake.
We calculated the PGA reduction during the Meinong mainshock by comparing the simulated PGA that used the HVSR of weak motions and the simulated PGA that used the HVSR of the Meinong mainshock for site correction.
Rong et al. (2016) used the HVSR method to investigate the nonlinear site response at 21 strong-motion stations.
