Abstract
Predictive displacement models (PDMs) based on the Newmark sliding block method have been widely applied in earthquake-induced landslide hazard assessment (ELHA). Pulse-like ground motions (PLGMs) can cause significant structural damage. In this study, four PDMs that consider the probability of occurrence of PLGMs (PP) were created for strike-slip and non-strike-slip events. The results demonstrate that the model with PP has greater accuracy in non-strike-slip events than the model without PP, however, the effect of PP may be disregarded in strike-slip events. This result is applicable to the ELHA and can provide a basis for post-earthquake emergency and geological disaster mitigation.
