Abstract

In civil engineering, one of the main problems is the stability of structures. Blast vibrations can be one of several elements influencing the stability of these structures. In order to prevent any effects on the structures, the maximum suggested values of the peak particle velocity and frequency from the blast are generally determined using the existing appropriate government rules and industry standards as reference. In this paper, the effect of these vibration on the site response has been investigated. Parameters such as peak ground acceleration, Pseudo spectral acceleration and maximum stress and strain has been compared for two different soil models. The results indicate that the soft soil has a significant impact and amplifies the input parameters considerably.
