  11. 2. Relations between Earthquake Ground Motion and Earthquake/GroundWhat Is Earthquake Ground Motion? Earthquake ground motion is defined as a quake of the ground resulting from an earthquake, which is represented by a numerical value (digitized) for every time interval (Δt). Amplitude Duration (whole hours) = N (No. of pcs.) x Δt (time interval) By digitization, it is possible to represent earthquake ground motion in the frequency domain. + Amplitude of each component wave resolved + Gap in the time axis of each component wave resolved + Extracted from "What is dynamic analysis?!"

  12. What Is the Response Spectrum? Characteristics where the maximum value of response of single-degree-of freedom system at natural period Ti against earthquake ground motion is computed with the natural period changed and the relations between the natural period and maximum response value are cited 2.Relations between Earthquake Ground Motion and Earthquake/Ground Amplitude A3 A1 A2 A4 Period

  13. Relations with Earthquakes and Ground Structure 2.Relations between Earthquake Ground Motion and Earthquake/Ground Site characteristics Engineering bedrock (Vs≧700m/s) Seismic bedrock (Vs≒3.0km/s) Propagation path characteristics Seismic source characteristic Nature of earthquake ground motion = “seismic source characteristics” x “propagation path characteristics” x “site characteristics” Seismic source characteristics: nature of earthquake ground motion near seismic source Propagation path characteristics: decomposition of earthquake ground motion from seismic source to seismic bedrock Site characteristics: decomposition of earthquake ground motion due to the linearity of three- dimensional ground structure and ground materials on seismic bedrock Fault If the points subject to review differ assuming the same earthquake, earthquake ground motion differs because of difference in propagation path characteristics and site characteristics.

  15. What Is Intensity of Earthquake Ground Motion? Even if the maximum acceleration is the same, the shape, maximum velocity and response spectrum of earthquake ground motion differ greatly. 2.Relations between Earthquake Ground Motion and Earthquake/Ground

  16. What Is Bedrock Outcrop (in the Site) If there is a bedrock surface underground, the earthquake ground motion on it will be affected by the ground over it. The earthquake ground motion on the bedrock surface considered to be outcropped will not be affected by the ground over it. 2.Relations between Earthquake Ground Motion and Earthquake/Ground Position of input into a building structure Reflected wave affected by surface bedrock (descending wave) The engineering bedrock stratum is notunderground but outcrops. →Consider it to be a ground surface. Prescribed position of basic ground motion Engineering bedrock stratum Vs≧700m/s

  17. Definition of Basic Ground Motion Ss Definition of basic ground motion Ss Definition: earthquake ground motion likely to occur, though rarely, during the use of a facility and to impact heavily on the facility The earthquake ground motions with the site specific earthquake source locations The earthquake ground motions with no specific earthquake source locations Subjected active faults: 125 thousand years ago late in the Pleistocene period and thereafter Location of definition: site free bedrock surface (Vs = not less than 700m/s) Component: earthquake ground motion in the horizontal and vertical directions Feature: S1 and S2, seismic safety evaluation earthquake ground motion, have been integrated. 3. Regulatory Guide( NSCJ )

  18. Source Location to be Considered for the Basic Ground Motion Ss The earthquake ground motions with the site specific earthquake source locations Formulation of earthquake ground motion according to the type of occurrence of earthquakes: active faults (earthquakes in inland crusts), inter-plate earthquakes, ocean intraplate earthquakes, ocean intraplate earthquakes (intraslab earthquakes) Active faults to be considered: those which, there is no denying, have been active since late Pleistocene The earthquake ground motions with no specific earthquake source locations 3.

  22. Fault Rupture Scenario - Irikura Recipe Recipe for a rational method of setting of a seismic source rupture scenario (also referred to as the characterized seismic source model) Modeling of heterogeneous fault rupture in places where a fault is strong (asperity) and where it is comparatively fragile (background domain) 4.1 Fault Model Asperity Background domain Potential fault earthquake Surface fault earthquake

  23. Progress in Modeling of Fault Rupture Scenario by Characterized Seismic Source Model (Irikura Recipe) Step 1: Fault rupture area (S=LW) Step 2: Seismic moment (M0) Step 3: Mean stress drop (DSC) Step 4: Total area of asperity (Sa) Step 5: Stress drop of asperity (DSa) Step 6: Number of pieces (N) and location of asperity Step 7: Average slip rate of asperity (Da) Step 8: Effective stress of asperity (Sa) and of background domain (Sb) Step 9: Setting of slip rate function 4.1 Fault Model

  24. Comparison of Methods Based on Fault Model Grasp the features of the earthquake ground motion evaluation approach and select an approach according to the features of the points and structures. A method with the small earthquake waveform as an element Empirical Green Function method: use of small earthquake observation waveform as an element wave (Green Function) Statistical Green Function method: use of simulation wave as an element wave (Green Function) Theoretical computation of seismic waveform by means of fault rupture (difference calculus, etc.) Advantage: theoretical waveform just as the model set is available. Disadvantage: the scope of application is restricted to long wavelength (long period) due to the limitation of minute models and computational capacity. Hybrid method (Statistical Green Function method + theory) With the advantages of the two approaches, the long-period theoretical waveform and the short-period statistical simulation wave are added together in the time domain via the matching filter. 4.1 Fault Model

  25. Empirical and Statistical Green Function Methods 4.1 Fault Model Fault displacement of a small earthquake Observation point A large earthquake is the further growth of the fault area of a small earthquake and the sliding displacement. Rupture of a small earthquake Displacement Small fault Time Synthesize large earthquake ground motion by adding together observation records of small earthquakes according to the temporal and spatial growth of rupture. Fault displacement of a large earthquake Rupture of a large earthquake Small earthquake Displacement Point of occurrence of an earthquake Superposition Large earthquake Time Spatial superposition on a fault plane Temporal superposition of rupture process • Computation method of earthquake ground motion: Add together records on small earthquakes according to progress in fault rupture → Records of large earthquakes can be synthesized. • Requirements of records on small earthquakes → The propagation path characteristics and site amplification characteristics of records on large earthquakes are almost the same. (because the observation accuracy of records on small earthquakes (especially long period) affects the results of syntheses.)

  26. Features of Empirical and Statistical Green Function Methods 4.1 Fault Model • Empirical Green Function method • Feature: seismic source, propagation path and amplification characteristics are included. Advantage: the observation wave includes many features that cannot be represented by computation. Disadvantage: it is rare that an ideal small earthquake observation waveform can be obtained before the occurrence of an anticipated large earthquake. • Statistical Green Function method • Feature: seismic source characteristics are considered as an element wave, and propagation path and amplitude characteristics are modeled. Advantage: a short-period waveform of statistical nature can be obtained. Disadvantage: too average in the long periodic area which is affected by fault rupture and ground response.

  30. Method of Formulating Earthquake Ground Motion Based on Response Spectrum Preparation method: obtain the time history waveform from the relations between the amplitude and phase of earthquake ground motion and adjust the amplitude in order to minimize the difference between the target and the response spectrum. 4.2 Response Spectrum Acceleration Time domain (relations between time and amplitude) → conversion into frequency domain Response spectrum Ak,BkFinite Fourier coefficient Amplitude Phase (Relations between frequency and amplitude/phase)

Also referred to as a simulation wave. Besides the spectrum, phase characteristics are necessary. 4.2 Response Spectrum [Phase characteristics] [Example of target spectrum] Acceleration 1995 Hyogo-ken Nambu earthquake - Kobe Marine Observatory (NS) [Constructed waveform: Simulation wave] Acceleration Specifications for Highway Bridges (with Commentary) Part 5: Seismic Design Level 2, type II class I Ground Simulation waveform conforming to the spectrum of Level 2 (type II, class I Ground), whose phase characteristics are of the simulation wave of the Kobe Marine Observatory NS components.

  33. Information on Seismic Source, Propagation and Site Characteristics (1) Study of seismic source for each type of earthquake occurrence Earthquake observation records: necessary for grasping a phenomenon (Evaluation of empirical Green Function and site amplitude characteristics, etc.) → Set a seismometer on the subjected site and conduct an observation. Collect and analyze records on observation points near the site. Characteristics of earthquake source faults: modeling of earthquake fault rupture (Macroscopic fault model, heterogeneous fault model) → Set them empirically from the analysis of fault rupture in the past. ・Study of active faults: detailed study of faults (size, location, shape, interval of activity, etc.), ・Survey of historical earthquakes in the past, ・Damaging earthquakes based on historical materials 5.Information Necessary for Formulating Basic Ground Motion Ss Including Seismic Fault Model

  34. Information on Seismic Source, Propagation and Site Characteristics (2) Study of earthquake ground motion propagation and site characteristics Study of the geology and underground structure of a site: necessary for constructing a ground structure model to evaluate site amplification (Tertiary ground structure, surface ground structure, nonlinear response characteristics) → Collect and analyze the results of structural survey surrounding the site. (Set a favorable model by continuing a survey steadily since ground structure undergoes no sudden change.) 5.

  35. 5. Information Necessary for Formulating Basic Ground Motion Ss Including Seismic Source ModelModeling of Ground Structure: Method of Study of Underground Structure Seismic reflection method A method by where the seismic waves (mainly P-waves) which are originated from a artificial seismic source on the ground surface and reflected on the underground geological boundaries are observed with seismometers arranged on the line along roads, and the resultant records are analyzed for the cross section of underground structure. This method is similar to CT scanning. Array microtremor survey A method where microtremors are concurrently measured with seismometers arranged on plural points and underground structure including S-wave velocity is roughly estimated from wave propagation characteristics between seismometers. Gravity prospecting Gravitational acceleration varies according to location depending on underground density structure. In this method, underground structure is estimated from the property that gravitational acceleration is large where hard and heavy bedrock is shallow and small where it is deep.

  40. Observation of Earthquake with Strong Ground Motion The mission of the strong motion seismograph is to record the ground motion without exceeding the record range against a strong shake generated by a severe earthquake. For that purpose, it is necessary that the seismograph is robust. And the seismograph should be a system that maintains acquired records without fail. The acquired records is used as data of the input earthquake ground motion in the seismic design and also used in the research of the amplification characteristics of the strong ground motion depending on soil nature.

  41. Observation of Wideband Earthquake The wideband earthquake seismograph is a seismograph that can record a wide spectrum of earthquake ground motions from fast to very slow quakes at the ground surface . Analyses are made on the CMT solution* of large earthquakes that take place all over the world and on the seismic source time functions that show elapsed time of fault movement at the epicenter using seismic waves that were obtained by the seismograph. *CMT stands for the Centroid Moment Tensor. This is an analytical techniques to obtain a location (Centroid) of the earthquake that can best describe the observed earthquake wave form, scale (moment magnitude) and quake mechanism at the same time.

  42. High Sensitivity Observation of Earthquake The high sensitivity earthquake observation facility is a facility where the quake due to a small earthquake not felt by human beings is obtained. A quiet place is chosen as much as possible, the observation well is dug up, and the physical instrument is set up at the bottom. Because the frequency of occurrence of the small earthquake is very high, it is expected that the understanding of activity levels of earthquakes and modes of earthquake occurrence and underground structures at various places can be promptly made by implementing small earthquake observations.

  43. 7. Afterword Basic ground motion Ss employs a strong motion prediction method developed as a method for evaluating natural ground motion. Formulated ground motion is only a prediction model. It is necessary to give full consideration to various types of uncertainty concerning seismic fault, ground structure and characteristics. In the act of design, the relations between an action of earthquake ground motion and performance to be possessed by structures are inseparable in the sense of guaranteeing safety to be possessed by structures. It is necessary to see basic ground motion Ss from the viewpoint of a ground motion employed for design.
