Project Number 214
Date of Summary March 31, 1995
Subject Ground Motion Attenuation Equations for Basin Environments
Performing Activity Dames & Moore
Principal Investigator Dr. C. B. Crouse
Contracting Agency Minerals Management Service
Estimated Completion Complete
Description This is a Joint Industry Project (JIP). The purpose was to develop a set of attenuation equations that could be used to confidently estimate the ground motions in offshore basinal environments that are generated by crust earthquakes. Attenuation equations for computing earthquake ground motions are a key input in deterministic and probabilistic seismic hazard analysis.
