Abstract
The spatial variation of seismic waves has an important effect on the seismic response of structures of extended length. Based on data collected from the SMART-1 array, the spatial variation of seismic waves can be examined. The purpose of this paper is to examine the effect of the spatial variation of seismic waves on a spatially distributed system. With the consideration of the soil amplification ratio between two sites and spatial variation of seismic waves, a ground deformation spectrum is developed from stochastic point of view. This spectrum can provide information useful in predicting maximum ground deformation. The seismic response of a spatially distributed system, such as the effects of variation in soil stiffness on the dynamic response of pipelines are discussed.
