3 Seismic local site response All factors able to modify a seismic signal in amplitude, duration and frequency content during its propagation from the source to the recording site A1 (ω)( = S(ω) ) P(ω) s1(ω) ) t1(ω) A2 (ω)( ) = S(ω) ) P(ω) s2(ω) ) t2(ω) F For sites 1, 2 (and also site 3) S(ω) and P(ω) are common For sites 1 and 2 s1(ω) = s2(ω) (same lithology) For sites 1 and 2 t1(ω) t2(ω) For site 2 t2(ω) = 1 (flat surface) A1(ω)/A2(ω) = t1(ω)
4 Primary Topographic effects: causes 1) The free oscillation of the topography can have significant effects on seismic waves when the incident wavelengths are comparable to the size of the topographic features and the topographic slopes are relatively steep; Homogeneous body Resonance frequency f 0 = n V/L (from Geli et al., 1988) L = width of the topography V = shear wave velocity n= 1 fundamental mode 2) The variations of seismic motion, related to isolated reliefs, are due to different physical phenomena such as the focusing of seismic waves near the crest, because of the reflection on free surface and/or the interaction between incident and diffraction waves.
5 Geometrical factors : SR and WIDTH 1) The shape ratio (SR) H/L 2) The total width L H (from Lanzo and Sivestri, 1999)
6 Geometrical factors : vertex angle Homogeneous and elastic material φ = 90 Surface motion equations: v= v 0 e[i ω (t+z/ β)] = v 0 eikz ei ω t (Sanchez-Sesma, 1990) v= v 0 (eikz +e-ikz)+ v 0 (eikx +e-ikx) v= 2v 0 (coskx + coskz) On vertex, x=0 and z=0 v(0,0)= 4 v 0 In general v (0,0)= v / φ For φ = 120 v (0,0)= 3 v 0 For φ = 180 v (0,0)= 2 v 0 For φ = 270 v (0,0)= 1.3 v

28 Considerations about experimental results For the stations installed at the top the amplification effects involve frequencies between 3 Hz and 5 Hz, with an amplification factor up to 9 (with respect to the reference station); The peak between 3 and 5 Hz shows a clear polarization effect: the highest amplifications are detected for direction perpendicular to the main axis of the ridge; The amplification factor increases with increasing difference of quota between top and bottom; The amplification factor increases with respect to the source to site direction, showing the highest values for direction perpendicular to the main elongation of the ridge; The same result is obtained if different phases of signal are considered (noise or coda); Amplification peak at frequencies between 4 Hz and 10 Hz are detected also on vertical component; HVSR results generally well agree, in terms of frequencies, with those obtained from SSRs, even if the case of L Aquila highlights the possibility of wrong interpretations in absence of SSR; Noise measurements, being a fast and cheap tool often used in site response analyses, appear to be suitable but only for very preliminary considerations.
29 2D and 3D modelling: : input parameters 3(z) 2(y) 1(x) K P - SV Method: boundary elements (BEM) Codes: 2D : HYBRID (Kamalian et al., 2003) 3D : BEMSA (Sohrabi et al., 2009) Domain: elastic, homogeneous and isotropic Input parameters: γ = 23.5 KN/m 3 θ = 0.37 Vs = 1000 m/s Vp = 2210 m/s Input at bedrock: Ricker wavelet (fc=3hz) Investigated frequencies 1-8 Hz Transverse sections : P1 (NRN7), P2 (NRN4). DEM resolution 20 m f ( t) A max 1 2 ( f p ( t t 0 )) 2 exp ( f p ( t t0 )) 2
30 2D results: NRN7 NRN2 NRN7 NRN4 SSR H/V
31 2D results : NRN4 NRN2 NRN7 NRN4 SSR H/V
32 3D results: NRN4 SSR H/V
33 Considerations about numerical simulations At least in terms of frequencies, 2D and 3D analyses agree with the experimental ones: a constant amplification between 4 and 5 Hz was found. As highlighted in many studies, the models are not able to reproduce the amplification estimated by the experimental analyses: an underestimation of a factor up to 3 was found; Having the Narni ridge a clear 2D configuration, the 3D model does not improve the final results; Considering the discrepancies, in term of amplification factors, between experimental results and modeling, it is possible to suppose that the observed amplification between 3 and 5 Hz derives from a coupling of different factors (e.g. topography, rock weathering and structural anisotropies).
34 Evaluation of Italian predictive models Characterization of anomalies for the single station Calculation of normalized residual (SA, 5%) between observed and predicted values Reference Italian model : Bindi et al., 2010 (M >4; R<200; rock site NTC A category) H (WE) H (NS) V

42 Castelvecchio Subequo, A - T3 CA03 (crest), CA02 (base) PGA (%) = 126
43 Evaluation of NTC in Amplitude for CA03
44 Final comments Considering the experimental evidences (also reported in bibliography), a no negligible amplification of ground motion in presence of a particular topography exists. All investigated site are characterized by: 1) strong polarization effects for directions perpendicular to the main elongation of the topography; 2) overestimation with respect to the ground motion predictions for normal rock site; 3) amplification involving only a narrow range of frequency. NTC (D.M. 14/01/2008) The St corrective coefficient (ranging from 1 to 1.4) proposed by NTC08 is period independent and seems not to be useful to well predict the real amplifications. A simple shift (in amplitude) of the design response spectrum for A-T1 site leads to underestimate the frequencies of interest. SEISMIC INPUT Positive residuals between recorded data at the top of topographies and predicted ones, highlight high frequency amplifications (> 1 Hz) also for hard-rock site (A category): these recordings don t have to be used as seismic input for other analyses.
45 da NTC 2008, cap (Azione sismica) per condizioni topografiche complesse è necessario predisporre specifiche analisi di risposta sismica locale;... per configurazioni superficiali semplici si può adottare la seguente classificazione ma esistono nella realtà configurazioni semplici?
