CSMIP is a web application for developing input ground motions for nonlinear deformation analyses using the double convolution approach. The application is expected to facilitate and increase the use of ground motion seismic recordings by practitioners.
This web tool uses the pyStrata Python package (Kottke, 2019) to conduct site response calculations.
We thank Dr. Albert R. Kottke for his support with pyStrata during the development of this project.
The development of this web tool was funded under agreement No. 1020‑007 between UC Davis and the Department of Conservation for the California Strong Motion Instrumentation Program (CSMIP) Data Interpretation Project:
“Broadening the Utilization of CSMIP Data: Double Convolution Methodology Towards Developing Input Motions for Site Response and Nonlinear Deformation Analyses.”
