In nonlinear seismic analysis the ground motion has to be represented through time histories. In this paper, a high number of spectrum-compatible time histories were generated, based on random vibration theory.

The advantages of using real accelerograms matched to the target response spectrum using wavelets for this purpose are discussed. The program RspMatch, which performs spectral matching using wavelets, is modified using new wavelets that obviate the need to subsequently apply a baseline correction. This paper proposed RspMatch2005 as a new version of RspMatch.
Currently, the method explained herein is used in SeismoMatch as an engine.

This review paper provides a summary and critical review of the literature on the influence of strong-motion duration on structural demand. It is found that studies employing damage measures related to cumulative energy usually find a positive correlation between strong-motion duration and structural damage, while studies employing damage measures using maximum response generally do not find strong correlations between duration and damage.
36)-- Tothong, P, Luco, N. (2007). Probabilistic seismic demand analysis using advanced ground motion intensity measures, Earthquake Engineering Structural Dynamics 36:1837–1860.
This paper compares and contrasts the use, in probabilistic seismic demand analysis, of certain advanced scalar versus vector and conventional scalar ground motion intensity measures (IMs). It demonstrates that this is true for ordinary and for near-source pulse-like earthquake records. The latter ground motions cannot be adequately characterized by either Sa alone.
37) -- Rezaeian, S, Der Kiureghian, A (2010). Simulation of synthetic ground motions for specified earthquake and site characteristics, Earthquake Engineering Structural Dynamics 39:1155–1180.
A method for generating a suite of synthetic ground motion time-histories for specified earthquake and site characteristics defining a design scenario is presented. The method employs a parameterized stochastic model that is based on a modulated, filtered white-noise process. The resulting synthetic acceleration as well as corresponding velocity and displacement time-histories capture the main features of real earthquake ground motions, including the intensity, duration, spectral content, and peak values. The proposed method can be used in seismic design and analysis in conjunction with or instead of recorded ground motions.
