合成的台湾M_S8.0级大震在上海产生的地震动

2015年4月25日尼泊尔发生了M_S8.1级地震,给人们的提示是:在发生过强震的地方,有可能再次发生同样强度的地震。自上世纪20年代以来,台湾就发生过两次M_S8.0级大地震,遗憾的是对两次强震均未获得强震加速度记录。上海是目前世界上高层建筑最多的城市。本文用经验格林函数法合成台湾M_S8.0级大地震,通过合成得到加速度时程来估算对上海产生的地表面波强度。将来台湾一旦发生M_S8.0级大地震,其面波对上海高层建筑的影响也将最为显著,本文给出的估算强度旨在为地震应对和应急救援提供一定的参考。

卢龙地震动场的预测

分别用经验格林函数方法和随机方法对卢龙ML5.7地震的地震动进行模拟对比研究,结果显示:用经验格林函数方法模拟得到的波形和反应谱都与原始记录接近,用该方法模拟的地震动,无需掌握场地的具体情况;对于无小震记录的地区,如果知道了其场地情况与附近有小震记录地区相似,可以用该小震记录作为经验格林函数模拟地震动。对于不能用经验格林函数方法模拟地震动的地区,可以用随机方法模拟地震动。用随机方法模拟地震动具有简单、方便、无需小震记录的优点。根据卢龙场地具体条件,尝试用两种方法结合预测了卢龙地震加速度场,结果比较好地反映了断层周围加速度的峰值分布规律。

矩形和钟形震源时间函数对地震动模拟结果的影响比较

首先介绍了用于地震动数值模拟的国际通用软件COMPSYN程序,并对此进行了二次开发,将其震源时间函数由矩形函数改为钟形函数,通过与全空间的解析解计算结果的对比,验证了修改后程序的正确性。通过对比2种震源时间函数的频谱特点,指出矩形函数的高频成分丰富,不利于地震动的模拟。2种震源时间函数下用COMPSYN程序对同一观测点地震动模拟的结果表明,矩形函数模拟的时程出现＂振铃＂和＂锯齿＂现象,且随截止频率的增加而加重,影响了对模拟地震图的识别,而钟形函数模拟的时程较为平滑,说明采用钟形函数进行地震动数值模拟是比较合理的。     

应用动力学拐角频率对经验格林函数法的改进

针对大小震拐角频率的差异,假设大震断层上每个子源的拐角频率与已破裂的子源个数平方根成反比,基于ω2震源谱模型,通过理论推导构建了一个函数,将动力学拐角频率引入经验格林函数法。以汶川地震余震记录为格林函数,分别用改进前和引入动力学拐角频率后的经验格林函数法合成5·12汶川大地震强地面运动。对比合成结果与观测记录,结果表明改进前经验格林函数法合成的地震动在低频部分相对实际记录偏低;引入动力学拐角频率之后的经验格林函数法合成的结果在高频基本保持不变,低频部分得到提高,并与实际记录符合。引入动力学拐角频率后,大部分合成结果很好地符合实际记录。说明动力学拐角频率可有效改善经验格林函数法的低频合成结果,同时验证了经验格林函数法对MW7.9特大地震地震动合成的有效性。     

Stochastically simulated blast-induced ground motion effects on nonlinear response of an industrial masonry chimney

This paper presents the dynamic response analysis of industrial masonry chimney subjected to artificially generated surface blast induced ground shock by using a three-dimensional finite element model. The effects of surface blast-induced ground shocks on nearby structures depend on the distance between the explosion centre and the structure, and charge weight. Blast-induced ground motions can be represented by power spectral density function and applied to each support point of the 3D finite element model of the industrial masonry system. In this study, a parametric study is mainly conducted to estimate the effect of the blast-induced ground motions on the nonlinear response of a chimney type masonry structure. Therefore, the analysis was carried out for different values of the charge weights and distances from the charge center. The initial crack and propagation of the crack pattern at the base of the chimney were evaluated. Moreover, the maximum stresses and displacements through the height of the chimney were investigated. The results of the study underline that blast-induced ground motions effects should be considered to perform the non-linear dynamic analysis of masonry type chimney structures more accurately.

为了研究强地震作用下,场地类别对于地震动幅频特性的影响,本文统计了3 579条日本地震动的时程,并针对场地类别的不同,分别从基岩和土层的峰值加速度幅值特性角度,以及从标准化反应谱和平均加速度反应谱等频谱特性的角度研究其幅频衰减特性,最后给出了各类场地峰值加速度衰减曲线。结果表明,土层对于地震动幅值和频谱的放大作用会随着场地类别的变软而增加,并且场地越软,远场的长周期特性越明显。利用平均加速度反应谱可以有效地反映频谱中的长周期成分。     

An empirical attenuation relationship for Northwestern Turkey ground motion using a random effects approach

Using a random effects model that takes into consideration the correlation of data recorded by a single seismic event, a database consisting of 195 recordings from 17 recent events is employed to develop empirical attenuation relationships for the geometric mean of horizontal peak ground acceleration and 5-percent damped spectral acceleration (S_a). The recordings employed are obtained from strong motion stations operating in Northwestern Turkey and resulted from events that include the Kocaeli (M_w=7.4) and the Düzce (M_w=7.1) earthquakes and their aftershocks as well as other events. By studying differences in standard errors, the random effects model is compared with a fixed effects model that does not account for distinctions between intra- and inter-event variability. Effects of local site conditions are included in the empirical relationships developed. The dependence on frequency of the various model parameters is also studied. Frequency-dependent attenuation coefficients for the proposed random effects models developed are summarized in tables to facilitate their use.

Evaluation of ground motion selection and modification procedures using synthetic ground motions

This study presents a novel approach for evaluating ground motion selection and modification (GMSM) procedures in the context of probabilistic seismic demand analysis. In essence, synthetic ground motions are employed to derive the benchmark seismic demand hazard curve (SDHC), for any structure and response quantity of interest, and to establish the causal relationship between a GMSM procedure and the bias in its resulting estimate of the SDHC. An example is presented to illustrate how GMSM procedures may be evaluated using synthetic motions. To demonstrate the robustness of the proposed approach, two significantly different stochastic models for simulating ground motions are considered. By quantifying the bias in any estimate of the SDHC, the proposed approach enables the analyst to rank GMSM procedures in their ability to accurately estimate the SDHC, examine the sufficiency of intensity measures employed in ground motion selection, and assess the significance of the conditioning intensity measure in probabilistic seismic demand analysis.

Ground motion prediction equation considering combined dataset of recorded and simulated ground motions

Himalayan region is one of the most active seismic regions in the world and many researchers have highlighted the possibility of great seismic event in the near future due to seismic gap. Seismic hazard analysis and microzonation of highly populated places in the region are mandatory in a regional scale. Region specific Ground Motion Predictive Equation (GMPE) is an important input in the seismic hazard analysis for macro- and micro-zonation studies. Few GMPEs developed in India are based on the recorded data and are applicable for a particular range of magnitudes and distances. This paper focuses on the development of a new GMPE for the Himalayan region considering both the recorded and simulated earthquakes of moment magnitude 5.3–8.7. The Finite Fault simulation model has been used for the ground motion simulation considering region specific seismotectonic parameters from the past earthquakes and source models. Simulated acceleration time histories and response spectra are compared with available records. In the absence of a large number of recorded data, simulations have been performed at unavailable locations by adopting Apparent Stations concept. Earthquakes recorded up to 2007 have been used for the development of new GMPE and earthquakes records after 2007 are used to validate new GMPE. Proposed GMPE matched very well with recorded data and also with other highly ranked GMPEs developed elsewhere and applicable for the region. Comparison of response spectra also have shown good agreement with recorded earthquake data. Quantitative analysis of residuals for the proposed GMPE and region specific GMPEs to predict Nepal–India 2011 earthquake of Mw of 5.7 records values shows that the proposed GMPE predicts Peak ground acceleration and spectral acceleration for entire distance and period range with lower percent residual when compared to exiting region specific GMPEs.     

Analytical fragility assessment using unscaled ground motion records

It is desirable that nonlinear dynamic analyses for structural fragility assessment are performed using unscaled ground motions. The widespread use of a simple dynamic analysis procedure known as Cloud Analysis, which uses unscaled records and linear regression, has been impeded by its alleged inaccuracies. This paper investigates fragility assessment based on Cloud Analysis by adopting, as the performance variable, a scalar demand to capacity ratio that is equal to unity at the onset of limit state. It is shown that the Cloud Analysis, performed based on a careful choice of records, leads to reasonable and efficient fragility estimates. There are 2 main rules to keep in mind for record selection: to make sure that a good portion of the records leads to a demand to capacity ratio greater than unity and that the dispersion in records' seismic intensity is considerable. An inevitable consequence of implementing these rules is that one often needs to deal with the so‐called collapse cases. To formally consider the collapse cases, a 5‐parameter fragility model is proposed that mixes the simple regression in the logarithmic scale with logistic regression. The joint distribution of fragility parameters can be obtained by adopting a Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation scheme leading directly to the fragility and its confidence intervals. The resulting fragility curves compare reasonably with those obtained from the Incremental Dynamic Analysis and Multiple Stripe Analysis with (variable) conditional spectrum–compatible suites of records at different intensity levels for 3 older reinforced concrete frames with shear‐, shear‐flexure‐, and flexure‐dominant behavior.
