Abstract

This study aims to develop a reliable ground motion model (GMM) for CAV by using ground motion (GM) recordings from the PEER NGA-West2 database. A total of 17,684 GM recordings are chosen and randomly separated into the training, validation, and testing datasets. The DNN is advanced by incorporating the refined second-order (RSO) neuron. The effect of seismological and site-specific parameters on the predicted CAV is investigated. The comparative assessment of four existing models with the RSO-DNN model of this study highlights the superior prediction skill of the latter one since the RSO-DNN model is found to be associated with considerably less error.
