Simulation of seismic response in a city-like environment
Jean-Philippe Groby, Chrysoula Tsogka, Armand Wirgin
We study the seismic response of idealized 2D cities, constituted by non equally-spaced, non equally-sized homogenized blocks anchored in a soft layer overlying a hard half space.…

The inverse crime
Armand Wirgin
The inverse crime occurs when the same (or very nearly the same) theoretical ingredients are employed to synthesize as well as to invert data in an inverse problem. This act has be…

2D ground motion at a soft viscoelastic layer/hard substratum site in response to SH cylindrical seismic waves radiated by deep and shallow line sources
Armand Wirgin, J. -P. Groby
We show, essentially by theoretical means, that for a site with the chosen simple geometry and mechanical properties (horizontal, homogeneous, soft viscoelastic layer of infinite l…
