断层带围陷波研究及其应用进展

断层带结构研究对于认识地震的孕育发生、地震破裂过程及其地震灾害具有重要的意义,因而多种方法被用来观测和研究断层带结构,其中断层带围陷波就是有效方法之一.断层带围陷波是由地震波入射到断层带内低速介质与高速围岩之间的界面时在界面内侧经多次反射相干叠加形成,具有大振幅、低频率和频散的特点.由于断层带围陷波在断层带的内部传播,它携带有断层带的介质物性和结构的重要信息,因此可以利用围陷波的波形特征研究断层带的精细结构.本文详细介绍了断层带围陷波的形成机制、传播和特性,全面阐述了断层带围陷波在观测研究、传播和特性理论研究和利用围陷波反演断层带结构的方法及应用三个方面的进展,并探讨了断层带围陷波研究方面存在的不足和问题.     

昆仑山断裂带围陷波的有限差分数值模拟解释

利用交错网格有限差分方法对昆仑山断裂带人工爆破产生的围陷波进行了三维数值模拟解释.为提高断裂带最终模型的可信度,在围陷波模拟的同时考虑了人工爆破记录的三个分量.对昆仑山断裂带围陷波的模拟结果表明,影响围陷波特性的断裂带深度主要在1.0 km以内.S波速度和断裂带宽度对围陷波的到时、频率、振幅和相位影响较大.数值模拟解释获得的昆仑山断裂带的细结构参数是：浅部断裂带宽度为300 m,深部为250 m;深度在400 m以上断裂带内S波速度为0.98 km/s,外部围岩S波速度为1.70 km/s,Q值为13.8;S波速度和Q值随着深度的增加而增加;1000 m以下断裂带内S波速度为2.80 km/s,围岩S波速度为3.3 km/s.     

二维非均匀介质地震波传播的伪谱和有限差分混合方法的应用研究

<正>由于围陷波产生于低速带内物质与高速围岩的界面上,在带内传播时间较长,因此它的振幅和频率特征对断层带形态和带内物质性质敏感,对断层带围陷波的观测与分析能够提供断层带精细结构的重要信息。基于伪谱法和有限差分混合数值模拟方法,开展了沉积层对隐伏断裂带围陷波影响的研究,探讨了沉     

利用断层围陷波研究昆仑山口西8.1级地震破裂面

利用横跨地表破裂带的小点距的地震测线, 对2001年11月14日昆仑山口西8.1级地震进行了断层围陷波的观测实验. 经过数字滤波和频谱分析等技术, 由地震记录图中分离出了断层围陷波. 资料处理结果表明： ① 无论是人工地震震源还是天然地震震源, 只要位于断层带内或紧靠断层带, 均能激发断层围陷波; ② 断层围陷波的能量主要集中于断层带内, 其振幅随测点与断层带距离的增加而急剧衰减; ③ 断层围陷波的优势频率与断层的宽度及断层带内介质的速度有关, 断层带越宽, 或断层带内部介质速度越低, 则观测到的断层围陷波的优势频率越低; ④ 断层围陷波存在着频散现象; ⑤ 根据昆仑山口西地震测线断层围陷波的观测结果, 可推断该处破裂面宽度为300 m左右, 远远大于地表破裂带的宽度.     

汤西断裂的断层围陷波初步研究

作为断层围陷波方法在城市活断层探测中的首次尝试,我们针对太行山山前断裂带南段的汤西断裂开展了爆炸震源的观测试验。运用数字滤波和频谱分析等技术,由地震记录图分离出了断层围陷波。根据2横测线的观测结果,可确定断层的位置,并可推测断层在该处宽度为200～300m。破裂面较宽,可能与其张性特征有关。分频道地震图显示,断层围陷波具有正频散现象,其低频分量传播较快。这表明断层围陷波是一种面波,可利用其频散规律研究断裂带内介质的物理性质。这次的观测结果也表明,断层围陷波并不局限于新破裂带,在老断层中也能形成和传播。事实上,只要断层带内外的介质在物理性质上有较大的差异,均能产生沿断层传播的围陷波。在城市活断层探测中,断层围陷波的方法具有非常独特的优越性     

垂直和倾斜断层围陷波的谱元法数值模拟及其波场特征对比

低速断层破碎带内传播的断层围陷波是断层内部信息的重要载体,研究其波场特征是反,演断层内部结构的关键。前人对围陷波的模拟主要针对垂直断层,但实际断层大部分是倾斜的。本文利用谱元法数值模拟地震波在垂直和倾斜断层区域的传播,并分别单独改变断层破碎带或断层两盘速度差异等参数,对比分析地震动在时域和频域发生的变化,研究这些参数对波场特征的影响。对比研究表明,当存在一定宽度的低速破碎带时,倾斜断层对近断层区域波场的影响和垂直断层相比在幅值分布上有比较显著的差异,尤其是当断层两盘同时还存在速度差异时;在倾斜和垂直断层破碎带上方,均能产生断层围陷波,其幅值特征差异不大,但在跨断层平面上的质点极化方式可能会存在差异:垂直断层围陷波质点极化方向表现为单一,而倾斜断层可能会出现多个方向。这些模拟结果有助于反演真实断层破碎带结构,也能够加深对近断层的强地面运动特征的认识。     

昆仑山断层围陷波的分析和研究

对2001年昆仑山口西MS8.1级地震产生的断层带,布设了沿断层和横跨断层的两条人工地震测线.通过对观测资料的定量分析和处理,求得了昆仑山断层带内部的细结构.分析工作包括从S波震相开始的振幅谱计算、速度频散计算、群速度测量,并用面波频散方法反演S波速度结构,用振幅谱比的方法估计断层带的Q值.野外试验结果表明,S波震相与围陷波组的时间差随炮点与台站之间距离增大而增加,在断层带外的测点上观测到与断层带相关的场地效应.最后得出昆仑山断层带宽度为250m、速度结构为断层内低速的分层结构和Q值为15（断层内）和30（围岩）.虽然昆仑山口西地震的震级比美国加州Landers地震的震级（MS7.6）大,且地震产生的破裂带长度长得多,但是这两个地震断层带的宽度却相差不大.     

断层围陷波观测和应用

断层围陷波的观测特点是利用密集的地震台阵,横跨断层布设测线。可以利用爆炸震源也可以利用余震进行观测,本文分别介绍了实际观测的例子。对大地震破裂带内部的观测,测线位置通常布设在地表破裂带明显、已开挖了地震探槽、断层陡坎出露等地震地质的典型地段。利用爆炸震源激发观测断层围陷波,震源位置应尽量选择在断层带上,震源炸药量大约500kg,测线位置与震源的距离大约5—15km。断层围陷波在新破裂带和老的断层中都能形成和传播,因此该方法可以用于大震破裂带研究,也可以用于城市活断层探测。     

利用断层围陷波资料研究龙门山断裂带分段特征

正断层围陷波(Fault zone trapped waves)又称为断层通道波、断层导波、槽波,是波在断层的两个边界内侧多次反射并相干迭加而形成的。围陷波既然是由断层带内低速介质和高速围岩之间的相干多次反射波构成的,那么其振幅和频率就强烈地依赖于断层带内介质的物理性质和断层的几何形态。所以观测、分析和模拟断层围陷波能够确定断层的深部细节。2008年5月12日在四川汶川发生了8级大地震,随后强余震不断,并且2013年4月20日     

汶川地震区断层围陷波探测

对汶川地震区开展震后科考和断层围陷波探测,本文主要介绍平通镇断层围陷波探测及初步结果。平通镇处在汶川8．0级地震断层带正上方,地表破坏十分严重。该断层围陷波测线横跨断层,以地震探槽为大致中点,沿NW—SE方向两端延伸,测线长约400m。这次观测结果表明,在汶川8．0级地震的新破裂带中可以观测到断层围陷波,反映了断层带内外的介质在物理性质上有较大的差异。该测线记录的断层围陷波优势频率大约为3—4Hz。探槽附近的台站断层围陷波较强,初步推测,该地段地壳内断层的宽度大约有200m。     

盆地构造地震地面运动速度和加速度分布特征的数值模拟

本文用错格实数傅里叶变换的拟谱法的数值模拟方法分析了地震波在冲积扇、盆地等不均匀地震构造体区域的传播过程和地面运动分布. 结果表明, 地震波由岩石区进入盆地结构后,在盆地内上下多次反射振荡,对地面建筑物可能形成多次连续的振动和破坏,仅有极少量地震波能量返回岩石区域中,这是防灾研究中值得注意的地面运动特征;地震波在盆地边界地质构造条件下,形成的地震波体波与次生面波动的叠加干涉形成了大振幅的地面运动,它可能导致建筑物的极大破坏;破坏峰值的空间位置可能远离岩石和盆地沉积层的边界或者地震断层的位置.     

The effect of underlying geological structures on the propagation of seismic waves

Viewing from the energy angle and taking the Beijing depression as an example, this paper studies the effects of underlying geological structures, mainly bedrock topography and bedrock faults, on the propagation of seismic waves and discusses the effects of the overlying soil layer on seismic waves. From the study, some conclusions are drawn as follows:

1. Underlying bedrock faults affect the duration, frequency spectra and characteristics of energy distribution of seismic waves.
2. Underlying bedrock topography changes the field of ground motion not only because the bedrock at different places receives different amounts of energy from the same source but also because its asperities diverge or converge seismic waves.
3. Overlying soil layer is able both to absorb and to amplify seismic waves.

In the paper, the idea of expressing the intensity of seismic waves in terms of energy is put forward. Comparison between the expressions of the seismic wave intensity in terms of energy and the maximum amplitude shows that the former is better than the latter in reflecting the effects of underlying geological structures on seismic wave propagation.     

Study on rupture zone of the M=8.1 Kunlun Mountain earthquake using fault-zone trapped waves

Introduction The study on deep crustal faults has been one of the most vigorous subjects in seismology. In the past, 3-D deep seismic sounding and 3-D seismic tomography were usually used for this pur-pose. But it is difficult to obtain the fine structures of the faults in deep crust by these methods. Recently, seismologists in the world pay more attention to the fault zone trapped waves. Since the fault-zone trapped waves arise from coherent multiple reflections at two boundaries of the fau…

以基岩上单一土层场地为例, 计算分析了在斜入射平面SH波作用下弹性层状半空间中无限长洞室附近的地表位移. 研究表明, 层状半空间中地下洞室对波的散射与均匀半空间情况存在显著差别. 层状场地由于考虑了场地自身的动力特性, 使得洞室附近地表位移幅值的空间变化更为复杂, 基岩与土层刚度比、 土层厚度对散射效应均有着重要影响. 随着基岩与土层刚度比的增大, 地表位移幅值整体上逐渐增大; 随着土层厚度的增大, 土层对地表位移幅值的影响逐渐减小. 在频域解答的基础上, 给出了层状半空间中洞室对斜入射SH波散射的时域解答, 并以Ricker波为例进行了数值计算.     

Study on rupture zone of the <Emphasis Type="Italic">M</Emphasis>=8.1 Kunlun Mountain earthquake using fault-zone trapped waves

The observation of the fault-zone trapped waves was conducted using a seismic line with dense receivers across surface rupture zone of the M=8.1 Kunlun Mountain earthquake. The fault zone trapped waves were separated from seismograms by numerical filtering and spectral analyzing. The results show that: a) Both explosion and earthquake sources can excite fault-zone trapped waves, as long as they locate in or near the fault zone; b) Most energy of the fault-zone trapped waves concentrates in the fault zone and the amplitudes strongly decay with the distance from observation point to the fault zone; c) Dominant frequencies of the fault-zone trapped waves are related to the width of the fault zone and the velocity of the media in it. The wider the fault zone or the lower the velocity is, the lower the dominant frequencies are; d) For fault zone trapped waves, there exist dispersions; e) Based on the fault zone trapped waves observed in Kunlun Mountain Pass region, the width of the rupture plane is deduced to be about 300 m and is greater than that on the surface.     

ON THE GENERATION OF P AND S WAVE ENERGY IN CRYSTALLINE ROCKS*

A seismic source consisting of a 700 kg weight that could be dropped vertically or projected down a ramp inclined at 45° to the vertical was tested as a source of P, SV and SH waves within a crystalline rock body at Chalk River, Ontario. The seismic energy was recorded by arrays of both horizontal and vertical-component geophones at distances between 30 and 600 m from the source, which was operated over glacial overburden varying in thickness from less than a meter to a few tens of meters. Seismic energy was more efficiently generated when the overburden thickness was at least several meters. The signals identified visually as S are generally true S, though some may be the converted wave PS. The SV amplitudes are generally larger than those of P, regardless of the type of shot, while the signal frequencies are roughly 60 Hz and 90 Hz, respectively. The horizontal-component seismograms for the inclined shots showed no evidence of SH polarization, and the SH amplitudes were only rarely enhanced relative to P and SV amplitudes on changing from vertical to inclined shots. These unexpected results are attributed to the combined effect of the high velocity and density contrasts and the irregularity of the boundary between the glacial overburden and the rock body.

圆弧状沉积盆地与软土单覆盖层出平面地表运动对比

采用解析方法，通过圆弧状沉积盆地与同样参数的软土均匀单覆盖层的对比，研究沉积盆地对平面SH波二维散射效应和其出平面地表运动。数值对比结果表明：（1）波垂直入射时盆地中央地表位移幅值反应，其随频率变化形式与软土单覆盖层的地表运动有较强的对应性，且此时单覆盖层地表位移幅值为其下降；（2）盆地的二维散射效应特点显著波的汇聚作用使盆地中的地表运动显著放大，总体上较软土单覆盖层的地表位移幅值要大，其频域内的最大反应则明显大于单覆盖层情况，但最大反应在盆地表面出现的位置依赖于入射波角度、盆地深宽比和盆地的软硬程度；（3）沉积盆地中地表位移运动有强烈扭转效应，且随盆地变软和入射波频率增高而增强。     

Guided Waves from Sources Outside Faults: An Indication for Shallow Fault Zone Structure?

— Using 3-D numerical modeling of seismic wave propagation we investigate the possibility of generating fault zone (FZ) trapped wave energy from sources well outside a fault. The FZ is represented by a O(200 m) wide vertical low velocity layer in a half space. We find that FZ trapped waves can be excited from sources well outside the fault if (1) the low-velocity structure extemds only to shallow depth and the source is located at greater depth or (2) the structure of the low-velocity zone is such that only the shallow part of the FZ traps energy. FZ trapped waves are not excited from sources well outside a FZ continuous with depth. The results support, in conjunction with recent observational evidence, a model for natural faults with shallow trapping structures rather than ones that span the entire seismogenic zone. This may have implications for fault mechanics as well as for aspects of shaking hazard near faults.
