Outline of Final Research Achievements

Generally, the strong ground motion is strongly affected by the sedimentary basin. Slip pulse motions are generated when the seismic source fault is located near the seismic station. In this study, we explored the generation mechanism of the slip pulse motion which is observed on the rock site in the Kathmandu Valley during the 2015 Gorkha Nepal earthquake. We revealed that this slip pulse motion is largely affected by the near-field and the intermediate terms from the nearest slip area and amplified by the basin.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

2015年ネパール・ゴルカ地震のカトマンズ盆地の堆積上観測点における強震動は,周期3~5秒において大きなパワーを有し,日本の現行の建築基準法で規定する告示波の応答スペクトルを上回る過去に経験したことの無い長周期に強力な破壊力のあるものであり,その強震動の生成メカニズムの解明は重要である.
