S.M. Sajad Hussaini Daniel Caicedo Alexandra Carvalho Sanaz Rezaeian Paulo B. Lourenco Shaghayegh Karimzadeh 2026 <p><span>Building on a previously developed bedrock dataset, this study extends the Azores Plateau ground motion simulations to include soil-amplified records and introduces a comprehensive validation framework. Soil amplification is modeled using one-dimensional soil profiles. A stochastic source-based approach is employed to generate the dataset, incorporating randomization of input-model parameters to account for the aleatory uncertainty in seismic activity. The accuracy of the dataset is verified through a comprehensive validation framework, showing that the randomization effectively captures variance and inter-period correlation observed in records. This work provides a robust dataset for advancing seismic hazard and risk assessment in the Azores Plateau.</span></p> application/pdf 10.1080/13632469.2026.2619832 en Taylor & Francis Simulated ground motion dataset in the Azores Plateau, Portugal, on rock and soil sites article
