Introduction
Static analysis based on the seismic coefficient has been
made long time. Recently, however, seismic response
analysis becomes a powerful and important tool for the

Earthquake Motions
Input earthquake motion must have various and typical
natures in order to obtain the general feature of the
response. Eleven recorded earthquake motions which have
different characteristics are employed so as to satisfy this
requirement. They are shown in Table 1 with several
earthquake motion indices which are explained in Earthquake Motion Indices Section. Duration of the earthquake
T in the table is computed from the time difference when
powers are 5 and 95 %.
The input earthquake motions are classified into two
categories, inland earthquakes and ocean trench type
earthquake.
Waveforms of the input motion are shown in Figure 3.
Generally speaking, duration of the earthquake is shorter in
the inland earthquakes, but intensity is larger. Figure 4
shows response spectra of the input motions under 5 %
damping.
These waves are applied as the earthquake motion of the
outcropped base. Layers with Vs = 300 m/s is added at the
bottom of the ground in Fig. 2 because SHAKE requires
where a and b are constants and are set 0.090 and 0.00091,
respectively, so that average damping ratio between 0.5 Hz
and 6 Hz becomes 1.43 % (Q = 35).
Method of each analysis is briefly explained in the
followings.

Figure 9 compares PGAs by all analyses, where subscript EQ indicates equivalent linear method (SHAKE) and
NL indicates truly nonlinear method (YUSAYUSA). Two
lines are drawn in the figure whose gradients are 1:1 and
1.5:1. PGA by SHAKE is always larger than that by
YUSAYUSA except only several cases. PGA is overestimated more than 1.5 times in SHAKE in many cases which
agrees with the discussion in Ref. [4] and Fig. 5.
Peak ground velocity, PGV, is compared in Fig. 10.
Both PGVs are nearly the same although that by the
equivalent linear method seems to be a little larger than
that by the nonlinear analysis. There are, however, two
exceptions. PGV by nonlinear method shows much larger
value than that of equivalent linear method under Kawaguchi ( ) and Kaihoku ( ). This is not caused from the
difference of the analytical methods but other reason.
Input earthquake motions are integrated to obtain the
absolute velocity by the Fourier transform in SHAKE and
Newmarks b method (b = 0.25) in YUSAYUSA, respectively. Zero-th order or constant term is neglected in SHAKE,

Concluding Remarks
Three seismic response analyses, the equivalent linear
analysis, the total stress truly nonlinear analysis, and the
effective stress analysis, are compared by using more than
250 sites and 11 large earthquake motions. Since typical
grounds and earthquake motions are included, the conclusions obtained here shows general feature of the analysis.
The following conclusions are obtained.
