Dynamic faulting under rate-dependent friction   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
We discuss the effects of rate-dependent friction on the propagation of seismic rupture on active faults. Several physicists using Burridge and Knopoff's box and spring model of faulting have proposed that fault complexity may arise from the spontaneous development of a self-similar stress distribution on the fault plane. If this model proves to be correct, it has important consequences for the origin of the complexity of seismic sources. In order to test these ideas on a more realistic earthquake model, we developed a new boundary integral equation method for studying rupture propagation along an antiplane fault in the presence of nonlinear rate-dependent friction. We study rupture dynamics of models with single and twin asperities. In our models, asperities are places on the fault with a higher value of prestress. Othewise all fault parameters are homogeneous. We show that for models with such asperities, a slip velocity weakening friction leads to the propagation of supersonic healing phases and to the spontaneous arrest of fracture if the prestress outside the asperities is low enough. For models with asperities, we can also observe narrow slip velocity pulses, qualitatively similar to the so-called Heaton pulses observed in some earthquake accelerograms. We also observe a complex distribution of stress after the rupture that depends on details of the initial distribution of asperities and on the details of the friction law.  相似文献

Dieterich simulated aftershocks numerically, using a one-dimensional mass-spring model with a time-dependent friction law. But an important precursory phenomenon called quiescence cannot be produced by this model unless, as Mikumo and Miyatake showed with a three-dimensional continuum model, a somewhat arbitrary bimodal distribution of frictional strength is assumed. Here we used the friction law proposed by Stuart, which is a displacement hardening-softening model, and simulated the quiescence. By varying the parameters of the friction law in our mass-spring model, we found a variety of seismicity patterns. When we choose extremely large critical displacement we get a recurrent sequence of creep followed by mainshock without small earthquakes. But when we choose a critical displacement in the same order of magnitude as the slip-weakening critical displacement estimated by Papageorgiou and Aki from strong motion data, we get a normal seismicity pattern, including quiescence before large events. This simple model points to a promising approach for the interpretation of the rupture process during an earthquake by the same physical model.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

This article is a concept paper, which discusses the definition of randomness, and the sources of randomness in the mathematical system as well as in the physical system (the Universe). We document that randomness is an inherited property of mathematics and of the physical world, shaping all observed forms and structures, and we discuss its role.

Historical earthquakes and a tsunami in Bohai Sea   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Quantitative analysis on seismicity showed that there are several seismic dense zones in Bohai Sea. These seismic dense zones of modern small earthquakes behave prominent NE orientation, although a seismic dense zone with NW direction exists actually. Taking 39°N as a boundary, seismicity in the south is different from that in north of Bohai Sea. Almost all strong earthquakes and seismic dense zones are concentrated in the southern part. Based on archives and seismic dense characteristics, we amended the epicenter of strong earthquakes in 1548 and discussed about magnitude of the earthquake in 1888. Possibility of the event in 173 as a tsunami was discussed. The event in 1597 was doubted as a strong earthquake in Bohai Sea.  相似文献

<正>This paper focuses on the investigation of a hybrid seismic isolation system with passive variable friction dampers for protection of structures against near fault earthquakes.The seismic isolation can be implemented by replacing the conventional columns fixed to the foundations by seismic isolating ones.These columns allow horizontal displacement between the superstructure and the foundations and decouple the building from the damaging earthquake motion.As a result, the forces in the structural elements decrease and damage that may be caused to the building by the earthquake significantly decreases.However,this positive effect is achieved on account of displacements occurring in the isolating columns.These displacements become very large when the structure is subjected to a strong earthquake.In this case,impact may occur between the parts of the isolating column yielding their damage or collapse.In order to limit the displacements in the isolating columns,it is proposed to add variable friction dampers.A method for selecting the dampers' properties is proposed.It is carried out using an artificial ground motion record and optimal active control algorithm.Numerical simulation of a seven-story structure shows that the proposed method allows efficient reduction in structural response and limits the displacements at the seismic isolating columns.  相似文献

概率地震危险性分析是地震区划图编制、重大工程场地地震安全性评估以及地震风险管理等领域的重要依据,地震时间活动性模型则是概率地震危险性分析的主要理论基础.本研究中基于布朗过程时间(Brownian passage time(BPT))模型,计算了不同情况下中国大陆特征地震震源区时间相依的地震发生率,采用概率地震危险性计算方法,选择合适的地震动模型,评估了中国大陆地区时间相依的地震危险性,并与基于泊松模型的地震危险性做了比较.结果表明,时间相依的地震活动特征对概率地震危险性具有显著影响,在那些地震离逝时间相对较长,离逝率较大(大于1)的震源区,时间相依的地震危险性结果相较于基于泊松模型的地震危险性结果显著增大,增大幅度最大可达50%以上.相反,在那些刚发生地震不久,地震离逝时间较短的震源区,时间相依的地震危险性结果相较于泊松模型显著减小,减小幅度最大可达50%左右.地震复发间隔的变异系数对地震危险性结果也有显著影响,选择合适的变异系数对时间相依地震危险性分析十分重要,后续应该加强对地震复发间隔不确定性的研究.研究结果还表明,时间相依的地震活动特征对不同超越概率下的地震危险性结果的影响是一致的,不随超越概率水平的变化而变化.本文研究结果对地震风险管理、地震保险以及相关防震减灾政策的制定等方面具有重要的应用价值.

Current structural analysis software programs offer few if any applicable device-specifi c hysteresis rules or nonlinear elements to simulate the precise mechanical behavior of a multiple friction pendulum system(MFPS) with numerous sliding interfaces.Based on the concept of subsystems,an equivalent series system that adopts existing nonlinear elements with parameters systematically calculated and mathematically proven through rigorous derivations is proposed.The aim is to simulate the characteristics of sliding motions for an MFPS isolation system with numerous concave sliding interfaces without prior knowledge of detailed information on the mobilized forces at various sliding stages.An MFPS with numerous concave sliding interfaces and one articulated or rigid slider located between these interfaces is divided into two subsystems: the fi rst represents the concave sliding interfaces above the slider,and the second represents those below the slider.The equivalent series system for the entire system is then obtained by connecting those for each subsystem in series.The equivalent series system is validated by comparing numerical results for an MFPS with four sliding interfaces obtained from the proposed method with those from a previous study by Fenz and Constantinou.Furthermore,these numerical results demonstrate that an MFPS isolator with numerous concave sliding interfaces,which may have any number of sliding interfaces,is a good isolation device to protect structures from earthquake damage through appropriate designs with controllable mechanisms.  相似文献

本文基于Lomnitz提出的MRI理论,用累积地震矩(CSM)算法对全球1900—1999年7级以上的地震进行了处理,试图通过分析大震前CSM图像的变化,来判断地震发生的可能性。对不同地区的6个地震震前CSM图像的分析表明:7级以上地震的CSM图像在震前5到10年内会改变,大部分地震发生在CSM的高值区或次高值区。通过实际运算发现:在不同的地区应使用不同的值可获得较好的结果,用于计算的地震数越多,获得的结果越好。有些大地震前CSM异常区域不是唯一的,往往会出现几个,这可能与研究区域的地震活动性有关。因此,笔者认为:若要获得可靠的CSM图像,除应当考虑不同地区的小震活动水平外,还应考虑地震断层对震后能量分布影响。统计结果表明:在目标地震发生后,下一次地震在空间上发生在原地及2度距离范围内的概率较大,在3度以外区域发生的概率相差不大;在时间上,发生在原地区震后1年内的概率最高,这可能与余震活动有关;在5年的时间里,下一次地震发生的次数占到全部地震的70%以上。因此,要注意大地震后,目标地震附近有地震能量进一步释放的危险性。  相似文献

通过对1067~2002年广东及邻区地震活动的研究结果表明,本区6级以上地震主要发生在沿海近海区域,7级以上地震全部位于海中,陆地的中强地震主要发生在北东向和北西向断裂带或其交汇部位,本区陆地不具备孕育7级地震的地质条件。中强地震存在明显的活动周期,当前已进入平静时段。计算了本区各地的地应力,并分析GPS有关观测结果,再结合地震活动参数和有关数理统计结果,认为2005年前本区发生6级以上地震的可能性不大,但存在发生ML5级地震可能。  相似文献

Beneath Mount Fuji, the highest active volcano in Japan, deep low-frequency (DLF) earthquake activity has been monitored since the early 1980s. The DLF earthquakes occurred in the mid-crustal depth range, and burst-type activity lasting from several minutes to 30 min was detected 10 to 20 times in an ordinary year. The DLF earthquake activity increased sharply in the period from October 2000 to May 2001, showing swarm-like activity. The occurrence rate during the DLF earthquake swarm was approximately 20 times higher than the usual activity, and the wave energy released during the swarm period was twice as high as the total wave energy during the past 20 years. The DLF earthquakes in the period from 1987 to 2001 were relocated by estimating station corrections in order to reduce the effect of the change of seismic station distribution. The epicenters of most DLF earthquakes occurred in an elongated region with a long axis of about 5 km, whose center is located 2–3 km NE from the summit. A few percent of the DLF earthquakes, however, occurred around the summit area, significantly apart from the main epicenter region. The focal depths of well-located DLF events range from 10 to 20 km. During the high activity period in 2000 and 2001, most DLF events occurred within this main hypocenter area. The sharp increase of DLF earthquake activity at Mount Fuji started immediately after magma discharge and intrusion events in the Miyake-jima and Kozu-shima regions in July and August 2000. The tectonic and volcanic activity changes around the area suggest that the DLF earthquake swarm at Mount Fuji was triggered by the change of state of the deep magmatic system around Mount Fuji.Editorial responsibility: J Stix  相似文献

Non-extensive statistical mechanics has been used in recent years as a framework in order to build some seismic frequency-magnitude models. Following a Bayesian procedure through a process of marginalization, it is shown that some of these models can arise from the result shown here, which reinforces the relevance of the non-extensive distributions to explain the data (earthquake’s magnitude) observed during the seismic manifestation. In addition, it makes possible to extend the non-extensive family of distributions, which could explain cases that, eventually, could not be covered by the currently known distributions within this framework. The model obtained was applied to six data samples, corresponding to the frequency-magnitude distributions observed before and after the three strongest earthquakes registered in Chile during the late millennium. In all cases, fit parameters show a strong trend to a particular non-extensive model widely known in literature.  相似文献

Among the second-order effects on friction the most important are those of variable normal stress and of slip velocity. Velocity weakening, which is usually considered the source of the stick-slip instability in rock friction, has been observed in velocity stepping experiments with Westerly granite. The friction change, , was –0.01 to –0.008 for a tenfold velocity increase. Using normal closure measurements, we observed dilation upon each increase in sliding rate. We also observed, for the first time, time-dependent closure between surfaces during static loading. The dilation that occurred during the velocity stepping experiment was found to be that expected from the static time-dependent closure phenomenon. This change in closure was used to predict friction change with an elastic contact model. The calculated friction change which results from a change in contact area and asperity interlocking, is in good agreement with the observed velocity dependence of steady-state friction. Variable normal stress during sliding has two effects, first in creating new partial slip contacts and locking some existing fully sliding contacts and second in increasing interlocking, for instance when normal load is suddenly increased. As a result, a transient change in friction occurs upon a sudden change in normal load.  相似文献

Summary During earthquake faulting, radiation efficiency and the degree stress relief are critically dependent on the kinetic shear resistance. This is often assumed to stay constant during slip, but geological evidence suggests that for moderate or large shallow earthquakes it may decrease dramatically to near-zero values once slip is initiated, either by melt formation or by transient increases in fluid pressure on the fault plane. The latter, probably more common process may arise partly through an interaction between temperature and water pressure, and partly through dilatancy recovery as shear stress is relieved. If the fault remains undrained, stress relief should be absolute with seismic efficiency reaching high values, so that stress drops give a measure of the level of tectonic shear stress in fault zones. Supporting evidence comes from the observation that apparent stress is generally about half the stress drop.  相似文献

The North Anatolian fault is a well-defined tectonic feature extending for 1400 km across Northern Turkey. The space-time distribution of seismicity and faulting of this zone has been examined with a particular emphasis on the identification of possible seismic gaps. Results suggest several conclusions with respect to the temporal and spatial distribution of seismicity. First, the earthquake activity appears not to be stationary over time. Periods of high activity in 1850–1900 and 1940 to the present bracket a period of relatively low activity in 1910–39. Second, there appears to have been a two-directional migration of earthquake epicenters away from a central region located at about 39°E longitude. The migration to the west has a higher velocity (>50 km/yr) than the migration to the east (10km/yr). The faulting associated with successive earthquakes generally abuts the previous rupture. Some existing gaps were filled by later earthquakes.At present there are two possible seismic gaps along the North Anatolian fault zone. One is at the western end of the fault, from about 29° to 30°E. Unless this is a region of ongoing aseismic creep, it could be the site of a magnitude 6 or greater earthquake. The other possible gap is at the eastern end, from about 42° to 43°E, to the west of the unexpected M=7.3 event of 24 November 1976.  相似文献
