Spatial variation of acceleration response spectra is examined using strong motion records for a large number of events from dense accelerometer arrays at Chiba in Japan and SMART-1 in Lotung, Taiwan. The e!ects of earthquake component, structural damping, earthquake magnitude, focal depth, epicentr

Specially designed arrays of strong motion seismographs located near earthquake sources are required for engineering studies of the near-source properties and the spatial variation of seismic waves. The SMART-I array in Taiwan provides good records for this type of study. Careful study of the observ
## Abstract Damaging earthquakes feature large variations in the spatial ground motion distribution mainly due to source complexity, radiation pattern, and site conditions. In this study, we tried to capture the hanging wall and rupture directivity effects from the 1999 ChiβChi, Taiwan earthquake (
