Outline of Research at the Start

本課題は,固体地震学における海洋プレート沈み込み境界断層部のデコルマ帯の力学特性を地盤力学によって理論化しようとしている.デコルマ帯はスメクタイト系鉱物が主成分の粘性土であるが,海溝部での沈み込みに伴って,イライト系粘性土に変質することが知られている.この粘土鉱物の変質による力学特性変化に着目し,弾塑性理論と間隙水との混合体理論に立脚し,デコルマ帯におけるアスペリティーの生成や断続的すべり(ゆっくり滑り)といった地震学で注目されている現象の説明を試みるものである.

Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research project, we use nonlinear elastoplastic theory to interpret the mechanical property changes associated with the alteration of the decolma zone at the oceanic plate surface during trench slip and to explain the generation of a sticking zone and the mechanism of slow slip of a plate boundary fault as a soil-water coupled boundary value problem. The following three issues are considered in this study: (1) elasto-plastic constitutive theory of mechanical property changes associated with the alteration of smectite minerals to illite in the Decoulema zone, (2) consideration of the dehydration field from within smectite minerals during their alteration to illite as a governing equation, (3) nonlinear elastoplastic constitutive theory and the initial value boundary value problem as a coupled field between pore water generation and movement, and the analysis of this problem.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本課題は,海洋プレート表層部のデコルマ帯の海溝部滑り込み時の変質に伴う力学特性変化を非線形弾塑性理論によって解釈し,プレート境界断層の固着域の生成やゆっくり滑りのメカニズムを土・水連成境界値問題として説明することにより、地震学への地盤力学の積極的な貢献を果たそうとしている.スロースリップ現象自体は揺れを発生させることはないが,断層試料を用いた室内試験結果から,スロースリップ現象が生じていた領域が地震時に高速で滑ることで地震を巨大化させる可能性が考えられており,発生メカニズムの解明が急がれている.
