Abstract

In this paper, a number of artificial earthquake ground motions compatible with time-frequency characteristics of recorded actual earthquake ground motion as well as the given target response spectrum are generated using wavelet transform. The maximum non-dimensional displacement of elasto-plastic structures excited these artificial earthquake ground motions are calculated numerically. Displacement response, velocity response and cumulative input energy are shown in the case of the ground motion which cause larger displacement response. Under the given design response spectrum, a selection manner of generated artificial earthquake ground motion which causes lager maximum displacement response of elasto-plastic structure are suggested.
