4.12 Comparison of the uncertainty in seismic demand curve for an
annual exceedance probability of 4.04 × 10 4 (i.e. 2% in 50 years) due
to the fi nite number of ground motions used for each intensity
measure level: (a) peak pile head displacement; and (b) peak deck
acceleration. (after Bradley, 2012a).
the seismic demand curves depicted in Fig. 4.11 can be explained due to the
uncertainty resulting from the fi nite number of ground motions used as
illustrated in Fig. 4.12 (Bradley, 2012a). It can be seen that the uncertainty
in the estimated demands due to bootstrap sample of the fi nite number of
seismic response analyses is large relative to the difference between the
mean values of the demand obtained using different conditioning intensity
measures.
