Comparative Analysis of Seismic Records of Wenchuan in 2008 and other Domestic and International Earthquakes

Article Preview

Abstract:

There are a large number of acceleration records obtained in the near fault strong motion of Wenchuan earthquake in 2008, which greatly enriched the database of strong motion. This article compares seismic records of Wenchuan earthquake with other domestic and international earthquakes, such as response spectrum, multi-peaks average and R. It also discussed a damage reason of fault zones in Wenchuan earthquake.
