Quantitative strong motion simulations at three locations in downtown Mashiki during the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake (Mw 7.0) based on the nonlinear ground response analyses with soil liquefaction

Abstract The mainshock of the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake (Mw 7.0) caused extensive damage to buildings in downtown Mashiki, Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan. The heavy building damage in the area was associated with both strong ground motion and building response characteristics. Fortunately, there were two...
