Site Classification Using Horizontal-to-vertical Response Spectral Ratios and its Impact when Deriving Empirical Ground-motion Prediction Equations (2007, methodology): “Bonnefoy-Claudet et al., 2006). Furthermore, when computing empirical ground-motion prediction relations, Lussou et al. (2001) showed that, for K-net data, site classification by a”
Exploring the model space and ranking a best class of models in surface-wave dispersion inversion: Application at European strong-motion sites (2012, background): “…to retrieve a VS profile (Scherbaum et al., 2003; Parolai et al., 2005; Fäh et al., 2009), with the H/V curve theoretically related to the Rayleigh wave ellipticity of the fundamental mode (Fäh et al., 2001; Malischewsky and Scherbaum, 2004; Bonnefoy-Claudet et al., 2006; Hobiger et al., 2009).”
Empirical evaluation of microtremor H/V spectral ratio (2008, background): “Even though one of the results from the extensive numerical tests performed throughout the SESAME project ( Bonnefoy-Claudet et al. 2006b, 2007 ) is that the classical H/V interpretation in terms of Rayleigh wave ellipticity is valid only beyond f0 and only in case of distant noise sources and large”
