Abstract
Spatial variability of ground motions has significant influence on dynamic response of longitudinal structures such as bridges and tunnels. The coherency function, which quantifies the degree of positive or negative correlation between two ground motions, is often used to describe the spatially variable ground motions. This paper compares two available procedures for developing spatially variable ground time histories from a given coherency function. Hao's method shows serious limitation, resulting in unrealistic decrease in coherency with increase in distance Abrahamason's method, on the other hand, preserves important characteristics of the reference ground motion. Therefore, the Abrahamason's method is recommended to be used in developing spatially varying ground motions.
