- class shakelib.conversions.imt.bommer_alarcon_2006.BommerAlarcon2006[source]¶
Bases:
IMTConverter
Class for conversion between PGV (units of cm/s) and PSA05 (units of g) by Bommer and Alarcon (2006).
PSA05 stands for spectral acceleration with oscillator period of 0.5 sec
PGV is peak ground velocity.
