2 Overview Kappa controls the highfrequency spectral decay of FAS modeled as: Anderson & Hough (1984) It is important because: - Significant impact on the results of PSHA for nuclear PP sensitive to high-frequency GM - Difficult to constrain empirically - Kappa scaling not explicitly captured in the median prediction of GMPEs 2
3 Overview (cont d) 3
4 Kappa Adjustments Applied to adjust empirical GMPEs from one region (host) to use in another region (target) to account for differences in kappa between host and target regions. Usually Vs-k adjustments are needed. The process generally involves: Developing k models for host region GMPEs Developing k models for target region Selecting k adjustment methods 4
5 Estimating Target Kappa 1. Ground motion recordings in target region: Requires GM recorded to high frequencies Log-linear slope above corner frequency while addressing the path attenuation (ex., Anderson & Hough 1984) Full inversion or model fitting to observed acceleration response spectra or Fourier amplitude spectra Use of small mag data (M<1) to measure kappa on the lowfrequency part of the Fourier disp spectra (Biasi & Smith 2001) 2. V s30 - kappa relationships: Chandler et al. (2006), Van Houtte et al. (2011), Silva et al. (1998), Edwards et al. (2011) Few sites with high V s30 ; May require extrapolation. See Ktenidou et al. (2013) for more detailed review 5
6 Estimating Host GMPE Kappa Determination of k from GMPE response spectra is a challenge. 1. Inversion of GMPE response spectra to obtain equivalent set of stochastic parameters (Silva?, Scherbaum et al. 2006) - Separates source, path and site effects - Careful choice of parameters to avoid trade-offs; e.g. stress drop, Q, and kappa trade-offs - Results sensitive to magnitude and distance ranges 6 Scherbaum (2010)
7 Estimating Host GMPE Kappa (cont d) 2. Visual comparison of the high-frequency slope of PGAnormalized response spectra with master curves obtained from stochastic simulation for different kappa values (Silva & Darragh 1995, Scherbaum 2010) - Some parameter trade-offs cancel out when normalizing by PGA - Still relies on developing stochastic background models for GMPEs Scherbaum (2010) 7
8 Kappa (sec) Estimating Host GMPE Kappa (cont d) 3. Published Vs30-k relationships - Rough estimates with a lot of scatter - Data come from different regions - Different methods for estimating kappa 0.1 Chandler et al Worldwide Douglas et al France Drouet et al France Edwards et al Switzerland Silva et al CA Van Houtte et al Japan Van Houtte et al NGA Chandler et al Model Silva et al Model Van Houtte et al Model Edwards et al Model (LIN-LIN) Vs30 (m/sec) 8
9 Kappa (sec) Estimating Host GMPE Kappa (cont d) 4. K-f amp relationships (Al Atik 2011) - Relationships developed from response spectra generated using stochastic simulations with a range of kappa values - Different definitions for f amp ; e.g. highest frequency that corresponds to Sa = logarithmic average of PGA and peak Sa 1 Coastal CA Model famp(hz) WUS Profile-620m/s WUS Profile-800m/s WUS Profile-100m/s 9
10 Estimating Host GMPE Kappa (cont d) 4. K-f amp relationships (Al Atik 2011) cont d Not very robust. Different f amp definitions lead to different kappa values Generally leads to very high kappa values GMPE V S30 (m/s) Kappa (s) f amp AbSi Geometric mean of the 2 frequencies corresponding to 5% spectral acceleration below the peak of the acceleration response spectrum and on both sides of the peak spectral acceleration. Highest frequency that corresponds to a spectral acceleration value equal to double the peak ground acceleration. Highest frequency that corresponds to Sa = logarithmic average of PGA and peak Sa 10
11 Estimating Host GMPE Kappa (cont d) 5. Slope of IRVT-derived equivalent FAS (Al Atik et al. 2013) - STRATA is used to derive FAS that are compatible with GMPE response spectra - High frequency slope of FAS is used to estimate kappa based on the Anderson & Hough (1984) kappa scaling function - Use scenarios with magnitude 5, 6, 7 and distances of 5, 10 and 20km to estimate average kappa for a relatively high V S30 - Q effect is considered to be negligible 11
