    The Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake (14 June 2008, M 7.2, depth 8 km) caused severe damage in the southern part of Iwate and the northern part of Miyagi Prefectures in Japan. The KiK-net Ichinoseki-Nishi vertical array site (IWTH25), operated by the National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Prevention (NIED), is situated near the epicenter. The observed peak ground accelerations at the surface in the up-down, east-west, and north-south directions were, respectively, 3866 cm/s(2), 1432 cm/s(2), and 1143 cm/s(2). The extreme ground motions recorded at this site provide valuable information about the wave propagation and soil degradation at a large strain level.We examined the nonlinear soil behavior at the site due to the earthquake on the basis of normalized input-output minimization (NIOM) analysis. First, we analyzed 279 records observed before the Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake and estimated the vertical propagation time (initial value) between the bottom of the well and the ground surface by taking into account incidence angles. Then we analyzed the records of the Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake and 179 events that occurred after it (from 14 June 2008 to 19 October 2009). The results revealed that (1) the S-wave propagation time increased from 0.265 s to about 0.35 s because of the nonlinear behavior of the soil; (2) this propagation time change corresponded to a 60% reduction in the shear moduli of the upper soil layers (surface to 64-m depth) and a strain level of 1 x 10(-3); (3) a gradual decrease in the propagation time with decreasing seismic intensity was observed soon after the principal motions; however, (4) the propagation times in the coda part and for the events after the Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake were still larger than the initial value, indicating that the shear rigidities of soils remained less than their values before the earthquake for more than a year.

  • A modified normalized input-output minimization (Mod-NIOM) method for seismic wave propagation modeling

    A new method for wave propagation modeling is introduced in this paper. By using the constraint optimization (Lagrange multiplier) method, the sum of weighted squared Fourier amplitudes is minimized when subjected to a constraint. The sum of the maximum amplitudes obtained from all output models is normalized to unity and is taken as a constraint. In this method, all the actual time histories are considered as outputs and dealt with equally. Independently of the combinations of time histories (or the first time history selected) during the analysis, the method captures the relationship of actual time histories by showing clear peaks. This paper describes the formulation of the models and illustrates the advantage of this method over the normalized input-output minimization (NIOM) method. The Mod-NIOM is then used to analyze the time histories of the Hyogoken-nanbu earthquake recorded at the Port Island vertical array site in Kobe, which suffered from liquefaction caused by the strong motions during the main shock. This method showed good correlations between the observed time histories at the site even though the surface time history was greatly modified by the liquefaction.

  • GRAVITY EFFECTS ON EARTHQUAKE RESPONSE OF A FLEXURE BUILDING: A SHEAR BUILDING COMPARISON

    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF STRUCTURAL STABILITY AND DYNAMICS, Volume:10, Number:2, First page:187, Last page:203, Jun. 2010
    An analytical building model including the nonlinear effects caused by gravity is presented in this paper. Governing equations are derived for both single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) and multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) models with large displacements taken into account, and solutions are obtained by direct integration and modal analysis. The response of typical structures subjected to harmonic ground excitation was expressed in exact and approximate forms, compared with the response of an equivalent shear building. Numerical examples show that while gravity generally decreases the natural frequency of elastic SDOF systems with small displacement approximations, actual natural frequency increases with ground motion. The difference in the natural frequency and response of MDOF systems to the equivalent shear building is not only due to gravity, but also caused by the geometry of the structure. Exact solution shows that the frequency varies with ground motion amplitude.

  • Nonlinear Soil Behavior Observed at Vertical Array in the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant during the 2007 Niigata-ken Chuetsu-oki Earthquake

    The Kashiwazaki-Kariwa nuclear power plant suffered extreme shaking during the 2007 Niigata-ken Chuetsu-oki earthquake. Accelerograms observed at the dense seismometer array in the plant are now open to the public and will provide valuable knowledge. The temporal changes of S-wave velocity were examined by using normalized input-output minimization (NIOM) method based on the vertical array records observed during the mainshock and the events before and after it. It was found that the S-wave velocity in the layers (surface-50 m depth and 50-100 m depth) decreased significantly during the principal motion of the mainshock (indicating nonlinear behavior), whereas nearly linear behavior was observed in the bedrock layer (below 100 m depth). It was also found that the S-wave velocity increased in the layers above 100 m depth soon after this motion, indicating no major liquefaction in these layers. Finally, the relationship between the shear modulus and shear strain was examined based on the obtained S-wave velocities. The normalized shear moduli (G/G(0)) in the surface and intermediate layers decreased to about 0.2 at a strain level of 1 x 10(-3) to 1 x 10(-2) and about 0.6 at a strain level of 1 x 10(-3) to 2 x 10(-3).

  • Analysis of scattered waves on ground with irregular topography using the direct boundary element method and Neumann series expansion               
    Hidenori Mogi; Hideji Kawakami
    BULLETIN OF THE SEISMOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA, Volume:97, Number:4, First page:1144, Last page:1157, Aug. 2007
    It is well known that ground with irregular topographic surfaces causes complicated seismic responses. The complex seismic response is mainly caused by scattering and wave conversions. However, the specific locations of the surface where the scattering mainly occurs and the extent of their effects are not yet clear. In this study, we investigated the excitation process of complicated seismic responses induced by irregular ground surfaces in terms of the contribution of scattered waves. First, the formulation of scattered-wave contribution in a two-dimensional SH-wave field based on the direct boundary element method and the Neumann series expansion of the BEM matrix was shown. In the formulation process, it was pointed out that the mathematical expression of the first-order scattered-wave contribution has a form consisting of a wave function and an inclination factor, which was similar to that obtained by the Huygens-Fresnel principle. Next, numerical analyses were conducted for a ground that had a sinusoidal- shaped surface at the center and flat parts at both ends. A comparison of the results showed that the complicated waveforrns of the responses were caused by the arrivals of the scattered waves. Finally, the contributions of the first-order scattered waves at the reference points were closely examined based on the mathematical expression; the following conclusions were drawn: (1) The polarity of the first-order scattered waves in the time domain is attributed to the inclination factor, which depends only on the geometrical relationship between the reference point and the source point from which the scattered waves emanate. (2) At the bottom of a valley, the scattered waves generated at its nearby surface are dominant because of the short distance from the source of the scattered waves. These scattered waves appear nearly at the same time of arrival as the incident wave and always reduce the amplitude of the incident wave because of their negative polarity. (3) On the contrary, at the peak of a hill, the scattered waves generated at the nearby surface have positive polarity, and they always enhance the amplitude response.

  • Analyzing spatial intraevent variability of peak ground accelerations as a function of separation distance

    Peak ground acceleration (PGA) as a measure of earthquake motion intensity is an important factor in the earthquake-resistant design and reliability analysis of structures. The purpose of this article is to examine the spatial variability of PGAs (recorded at the same epicentral distance) as a function of separation distance. To do this, we define PGA ratios as spatial intraevent variations of PGAs and examine their statistical characteristics. We analyze the probability distribution of the ratios and formulate equations for their probability density functions, mean values, standard deviations, and percentiles. These statistics are then estimated using accelerometer arrays of the Chiba, SMART-1, and SIGNAL databases. Then, the relationship between these statistics and the station separation distances is analyzed. We found that the means and standard deviations have an almost linear relationship with the logarithm of the station separation distances ranging from several meters to 100 km. Finally, based on the fiftieth and ninety-fifth percentiles, the differences between PGAs at two different sites due to future earthquakes are discussed.

    We applied the NIOM method (Normalized Input--Output Minimization) to long-term earthquake observation records from such as Shitoki Dam and Aratozawa Dam to determine the propagation velocities of seismic waves in the embankment, and investigated changes in soil properties. As a result, we showed that (1) the velocities of S- and P-waves decreased significantly during strong ground motions due to the 2008 Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake and the the Great East Japan earthquake of 2011; (2) in subsequent minor earthquakes the propagation velocity increased more or less in proportion with the logarithm of the number of elapsed days; (3) the damping ratio in the dam body also increased due to the principal motions of the mainshocks and decreased after them in the similar manner as seen in the results of the propagation time; and, (4) an FE/BE analysis using the estimated propagation velocities was conducted and wave-propagation characteristics in the embankment was discussed.

    In this study, we conducted Normalized Input-Output Minimization (NIOM) analysis of earthquake records at the crest, core, and gallery/foundation of many filldams in Japan such as Nagara dam, Tougane dam (the Japan Water Agency), Aratozawa dam, Koda dam (Miyagi prefecture) and Moriyoshizan dam (Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism) and examined the propagation velocities of seismic waves in the dam body. We also examined the nonlinear behavior and temporal changes of shear rigidity of the dam body. These examinations revealed that (1) the soil degradation in the dam bodies due to the extremely strong ground motion caused by the 2008 Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake and The 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake observed at Aratozawa and Koda dams, (2) healing process from the soil degradation was also observed.

    Rock-fall hazard assessment is indispensable procedure in maintenance of roads and rail tracks. So, a simple and quantitative evaluation of the hazard is needed. From this point of view, several methods based on vibration measurements have been presented. In this study, we proposed a new method to estimate toppling acceleration of a rock mass based on the horizontal-to-vertical natural frequency ratio of microtremors. We applied the method to rock masses and showed that the estimated toppling accelerations were consistent with results obtained from the method proposed by other authors.

    The purpose of this study is to clarify the effects of the conditions of the ground surface on the earthquake ground motions. Irregular shaped ground, lots of trees and buildings, Which are existing ordinally at the ground surface, were considered in this study. Even if it has been pointed out previously that the ground with an irregular surface may cause complicated seismic responses, the process of generating this complex response has not yet been clarified. In this study, such a process was also examined.
    Regarding the effects of the irregular ground surface, for example, it has been pointed out that the ground with an irregular surface causes complicated seismic responses. However, the process of generating this complex response is not yet clarified. In this study, boundary element-perturbation method has been developed to investigate scattering of seismic waves due to an irregular surface. This method is based on the boundary element method in frequency domain and perturbation technique employing the Neumann series. By using this method, the ground response can be separated into those induced by incident waves and scattered waves. Numerical results showed that the amplitudes of the scattered waves are affected by both distance and direction of the irregular surface to the observation points.

    It is well known that the most fundamental and important problem in the seismic engineering is estimation of the surface ground motion caused by earthquake. Usually, to evaluate the surface ground motion and wave propagation in the surface layer, the ground is modeled as the very simple flay layer system, while the real surface ground is quite irregularly shaped. And the programs, like as SHAKE, based on the wave propagation in simple layer system are applied. In those cases, the ground is assumed as flat and there is nothing on the surface. There are many local and micro geographical features on the ground surface. On the ground, there may be many trees, forests, houses and buildings. There is a possibility that wave propagation is affected these features, In this study, the effects of these omitted phenomena on the wave propagations are evaluated.
    Seismic responses of a ground with various types of sinusoidal shaped irregularity were evaluated by using the boundary element method and analyzed based on "scattered-wave contribution". The examination of the numerical results revealed the following : 1)the response at the trough varies sharply with frequency whereas the response at the peak shows large amplification over a wide frequency range ; 2)the predominant frequencies at the trough depend on the amplitude of the surface irregularity and do not depend on the number of fluctuations of the ground ; and 3)these characteristics can be understood as the results of the interference of scattered waves coming from the irregular surface.
    Peak ground acceleration(PGA) as a measure of earthquake motion intensity is an important factor in the earthquake-resistant design and reliability analysis of structures. The purpose of this article is to examine the spatial variability of PGAS (recorded at the same epicentral distance) as a function of separation distance. To do this, we define PGA ratios as spatial intraevent variations of PGAS and examine their statistical characteristics. We analyze the probability distribution of the ratios and formulate equations for their probability density functions, mean values, standard deviations, and percentiles. These statistics are then estimated using accelerometer arrays of the Chiba, SMART-1, and SIGNAL databases. Then, the relationship between these statistics and the station separation distances is analyzed. We found that the means and standard deviations have an almost linear relationship with the logarithm of the station separation distances ranging from several meters to 100 km. Finally, based on the fiftieth and ninety-fifth percentiles, the differences between PGAS at two different sites due to future earthquakes are discussed.

    The purpose of this study is to clarify the effects of the conditions of the ground surface on the earthquake ground motions. Irregular shaped ground, lots of trees and buildings, which are existing ordinally at the ground surface, were considered in this study. Even if it has been pointed out previously that the ground with an irregular surface may cause complicated seismic responses, the process of generating this complex response has not yet been clarified. In this study, such a process was also examined.
    Regarding the effects of the irregular ground surface, for example, the seismic responses of ground models with sinusoidal-shaped irregularity, i.e., with various heights and numbers of sinusoidal-shapes, were analyzed. The boundary element method was developed in SH wavefield for numerical analyses, and it was utilized to estimate the frequency response functions at the ground surface. Also, scattered-wave contribution was newly introduced to examine the frequency response functions. The examination of the numerical results revealed the followings :
    1)the frequency response at the trough varies sharply with frequency, whereas the response at the peak shows large amplification over a wide frequency range ;
    2)the predominant frequencies at the trough depend on the amplitude of the surface irregularity and do not depend on the number of fluctuations of the ground ; and
    3)these characteristics can be understood as the results of the interference of scattered waves coming from the irregular surface.

    The objectives of this study are (1) development of analytical methods for the records of seismometer array and their engineering application ; (2) investigation of the spatial characteristics of ground motions ; and (3) provision of space-time ground motions for earthquake resistant design.
    (1.a) Development of Analytical Methods for the Records of Seismometer Arrays
    New methods both in time domain and frequency domain have been developed to investigate the phenomena of wave propagation. The methods have been examined from the viewpoints of precision and numerical stability. Then, the methods have been demonstrated by using observation records, and the nonliear wave propagation in soft soil has been discussed. These results were published in the proceedings of the 11th European Conference on Earthquake Engineering and Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering.
    (1.b) Spatial variation of Peak Ground Acceleration
    Intra-event spatial variations have been investigated by using the records of seismometer arrays. The findings of this research were summarized in the proceedings of the JSCE.
    (2) Investigation of Spatial Characteristics of Ground Motions
    Seismometer array installed at Saitama University has been expanded. The records of this system and other published records have been analyzed to examine the spatial claracteristics of ground motions such as the speed of horizontal wave propagation and coherence value.
    (3) Provision of Space-time Ground Motions for Earthquake Resistant Design
    The methods to predict space-time ground motions have been examined and improved for a more accurate representation of the actual wave propagation. A new method has also been developed based on the interpolation of observed records. The numerical stability of this method has been closely investigated for the engineers who are not specialized in waveform analyses.

  • Proposal of Space-time Variation of Input Earthquake Ground Motion to Underground Structures Based on Results of Analysis of Array Observation Records of Earthquakes

    Records of strong motion are often used as the ground motion inputs in earthquake analysis and in the design of structures. The design of underground structures, however, requires more than just the time history at any particular point on the earth's surface. It also requires the space-time variation of the ground motion. We have therefore developed several methods for generating a simulated space-time variation that includes strong ground motions recorded at observation points. This simulated variation is characterized by an apparent velocity and by a coherence function. Here we presented a case study using motion recorded during the 1995 Kobe earthquake.
