Topography can have significant effects on seismic ground response during an earthquake because topographic irregularities cause considerable differences between the seismic waves emitted by the source and the waves reaching the ground surface.When a seismic motion happens in a topographically irregular area,seismic waves are trapped and reflected between the topographic features.Therefore,the interaction between topographies can amplify seismic ground response.In order to reveal how interaction between topographies influences seismic response,several numerical finite element studies have been performed by using the ABAQUS program.The results show that topographic features a greater distance between the seismic source and the site would cause greater seismic motion amplification and is perceptible for the hills far away from the source and the ridges.Also,site acceleration response is impacted by surrounding topography further than site velocity and displacement response.
