• BC Hydro Ground Motion Prediction Equations for Subduction Earthquakes (2016, methodology): “The spectral acceleration values for the Taiwan data were provided by Cheng (2008) and are based on GMRotI50 as defined in Boore et al. (2006). Beyer and Bommer (2006) showed that the average difference between GMRotI50 and the geometric mean of the two horizontal components is negligible; thus, we ”
• The Influence of Magnitude Range on Empirical Ground-Motion Prediction (2007, background): “Beyer and Bommer (2006) provide empirical ratios between spectral ordinates using a variety of component definitions, but the vectorally resolved component was not included, so the ratio of 1.27 of this component to the geometric, stipulated by Bragato and Slejko (2005) for PGA, is employed here…”
• A New Procedure for Selecting and Ranking Ground-Motion Prediction Equations (GMPEs): The Euclidean Distance-Based Ranking (EDR) Method (2013, unknown): “Studies like Bindi et al. (2006), Scassera et al. (2009), and Shoja-Taheri et al. (2010) used residual analysis to evaluate GMPEs under different ground-motion databases.”
• Prediction of elastic displacement response spectra in Europe and the Middle East (2007, methodology): “Adjustments have been made to magnitudes and horizontal components of motion to correct for different definitions employed in the equations [24, 25].”
• Truncation of the distribution of ground-motion residuals (2008, background): “The relationships between this and other horizontal component definitions have been investigated by Beyer and Bommer (2006).”
• Orientation-independent, nongeometric-mean measures of seismic intensity from two horizontal components of motion (2010, methodology): “In addition to a median measure of ground-motion intensity, users (including suggested building codes, such as that of the Building Seismic Safety Council, 2009) have expressed a desire for the maximum spectral amplitude over all rotation angles; Beyer and Bommer (2006), Campbell and Bozorgnia (2007”
• Beyond SaGMRotI: Conversion to SaArb, Sasn, and SaMaxRot (2007, methodology): “Many such measures are listed by Beyer and Bommer (2006) , who provide conversion factors between the various measures, for both the medians and the standard deviations.”
• Orientation-Independent Measures of Ground Motion (2006, background): “The first such analysis, in the companion paper by Beyer and Bommer (2006), finds for all periods greater than 0.03 sec that the aleatory uncertainty obtained from fitting a simple ground-motion prediction equation to a subset of the PEER NGA dataset is smaller when combining the two hor- izontal…”
