Nonlinear Analysis of Local Site Effects on Seismic Ground Response in New Damietta City, Egypt

New Damietta City is situated in a locale of moderate notable seismicity about M6.25 have happened. These dangerous tremors started from the Mediterranean subduction zone among African and Eurasian plates and is underlain by soaked late Holocene stores. In this examination, the city of New Damietta was assessed regarding site intensification and site period. Geographical and geotechnical examination including information base of 543 boreholes were gathered from past geotechnical reports and corroborative exhausting logs were executed by the Lodging and Building national Exploration focus. These information were incorporated to decide the variety of the dirt profile and in addition the qualities of the dirt layers inside the investigation site. One dimensional ground response close examination using corresponding straight system and nonlinear procedure have been done. Nonlinear examinations' results were differentiated and those of the indistinguishable direct method, and both of the similarities and differences are discussed. It is assumed that because of nonlinearity of soil under strong ground developments, 1-D parallel direct showing overestimates the strengthening structures the extent that add up to upgrade level, and can't viably speak to full frequencies and hysteric soil lead. Along these lines, more reasonable and suitable numerical strategies for ground reaction examination ought to be reviewed
