Single station sigma for Turkish strong motion stations

Cagnan, Zehra; Akkar, S. (2017)

As ground motion observations over long enough time periods are unavailable for majority of sites, most of the ground motion prediction equations have been derived using observed data from multiple stations and seismic ...
Uncertainty Quantification of Transient Unsaturated Seepage through Embankment Dams
