Hello,
this brings the need to apply to the recorded signal
a convolution algorythm in order to retrieve the exact
ground motion that will correct the waveform also in the
time domain and will put down to zero the filter delay
at various frequency.
Winquake should have the possibility to insert
(or better to pick from the file)
at least these parameters:
(Example for velocity sensors)
- Sensor damped sensitivity
- Resonance frequency of the sensor
- Filter corner frequency
- Filter type
- Number of Filter poles
If a convolution is made over the waveform the
original ground motion can be reconstrcuted.
This would be a great improvement of an already good
software as WinQuake is.
regards
mauro
