Abstract

Earthquakes often lead to severe earthquake disasters in cities near fault zones, especially in cities on the surface of basins. To study the basin edge effects on seismic responses of near-fault building-structure groups, an integrated numerical method is adopted and two identical structure clusters inside and outside the basin edge are considered. The seismic responses of two near-fault building-structure groups in the vicinity of basin edge are modelled during an earthquake of M_w 6.0. Comparing to the structures outside the basin edge, the bending moments of plane frame structures inside the basin edge are increased significantly, and the basin edge effect changes earthquake risk positions of the structures. The vertical displacements of the structures are increased and the horizontal displacements of the structures are decreased slightly. The detailed geological structure of basin needs to be considered when modelling seismic responses of near-fault structure groups.
