Abstract
Downhole arrays are deployed worldwide to record seismic ground response in near-surface strata. The information supplied by these arrays is increasingly becoming the basis for verification, and for development and calibration of predictive tools and design procedures. Advances __ in sensors and information technologies will further expedite this learning process, opening the door for worldwide sharing and collaboration. In this paper, the following topics are addressed: i) A summary of downhole array installations and data in the U.S. and in the Taiwan, Hualien and Lotung sites, ii) An overview of related current research efforts worldwide, iii) Downhole array system identification analyses for lateral and vertical site amplification, iv) Downhole array analyses related to liquefaction and availability of Internet websites for conducting online computations (http:/cvclic.ucsd.edu), and v) Summary of findings, and needs towards future advancements.
