Análisis de los parámetros de los acelerogramas registrados en los seísmos de Lorca, de interés para la Ingeniería

Abstract : Seismic crisis occurred in Lorca (Murcia) on 11th May 2011 originated an important number of accelerograms recorded in the IGN stations. The analysis of uniformly computed parameters has produced interesting results for Earthquake Engineering, in particular those recorded in Lorca. Strong ground motion has been specially observed in the horizontal component perpendicular to the Alhama de Murcia fault, at the origin of the earthquake. Values of PGA= 0,37g and CAV= 0.27g*s seems to be compensated by a short duration of the motion producing a macroseismic Intensity not greater than VII in Lorca. The contribution of near field component of ground motion due to the rupture propagation to and under the Lorca town was shown on acceleration, velocity and displacement time series and also on elastic response spectra.
