1 Downhole Data Dictionary and Data Formatting Requirements Jamison Steidl University of California at Santa Barbara Institute for Crustal Studies

2 OUTLINE Geotechnical and Earthquake Engineering Database Needs Why Downhole Data - Justification Database Structure, Dictionary, & Formatting Examples Garner Valley Downhole Database COSMOS VDC Database

3 Geotechnical and Earthquake Engineering Database Needs

4 Geotechnical and Earthquake Engineering Database Virtual Data Center Working Group Integration and Coordination Geotechnical Database Field Data and Laboratory Data COSMOS VDC Strong Motion Data Structural Array Database Downhole Array Database

5 A Geotechnical and Earthquake Engineering Database is: A Multi-Agency and Disciplinary Need An Integrated Research Tool A Comprehensive Data Product for the Practicing Engineer Agencies that would benefit from an integrated data center CDMG, FEMA, FHWA, USGS/ANSS, NSF-Geosciences NGES, SCEC, NSF-Engineering/NEES, PEER/PEARL, Could be part of a large Internet Technology Research(ITR) Program Integration & Visualization Tools to Link the Related Databases

6 Why Downhole Data - Justification

7 Borehole Seismic Instrumentation & The Earthquake Hazard Problem 1) Direct Estimation of Site Effects 1-D modeling of waveforms using physical models of near-surface structure. Estimation of attenuation effects. Separating 1-D and 3-D effects in ground motion recordings. 2) Nonlinear Effects on Ground Motion What is the degree of nonlinearity Numerical modeling of nonlinear soil dynamics-code validation/calibration 3) Ground Motion Prediction - Scenario Earthquakes Borehole data as empirical Green s functions for the surrounding region Borehole bedrock coherence Difference between borehole input ground motion and surface rock sites Basin borehole coherence 4) Details of the Earthquake Source Improved Imaging (removing surface effects) Earthquake Nucleation and Stopping Rupture Dynamics and Physics of the Earthquake Source

8 Ground Motion Deconvolution

9 Understanding Site Effects Using Downhole Array Observations

10 Understanding Site Effects and Soil Behavior Using Surface and Borehole Observations

11 Understanding Site Effects Using Surface and Borehole Observations
