Abstract

The discussion deals with the effect of shear wave velocity uncertainties on 1D seismic ground response analysis. In particular, the paper refers to uncertainties deriving from the solution of the inverse problem in surface wave methods. We address some issues related to the evaluation of “equivalent” profiles from surface wave data, the inversion strategy and the numerical simulation of seismic site response. The pitfalls in the analyses point out the need for more refined studies to draw general conclusions on the subject.
