Research group of the University
of Southern California, Civil Engineering Department. Interdisciplinary
research, with focus on: (i) earthquake strong ground motion for engineering
applications, and (ii) earthquake response of man made structures, aiming
to improvement of the seismic design procedures and earthquake risks reduction.
The group operates the Los Angeles and Vicinity Strong Motion Network (79
three-component stations), and also maintains and develops equipment and
processing methods for ambient vibration testing of full-scale structures.
Research topics include: probabilistic seismic hazard assessment, strong
motion recording, data processing and modeling, soil-structure interaction,
seismic wave propagation, site and path effects, design ground motions,
earthquake source mechanism, structural identification and health
monitoring.
