Research Abstract

The present study is focusing on detection of liquefaction and large ground displacement induced by fault movement. First, amplitude characteristics of strong ground motion records were investigated. Time histories of ratio of vertical ground acceleration to the horizontal one was calculated from ground acceleration records at ground surface. Next, frequency characteristics of the ground acceleration records were studied. The average predominant period of the strong motion was calculated here. Then these indices were verified by using more than one hundred acceleration records at ground surface including the 2001 Geiyo, the 2003 Sanriku-minami, the 2003 Miyagiken-hokubu and the 2003 Tokachi-oki Earthquakes in Japan.
The velocity of strong ground motion obtained by integration of acceleration is used for a new index to detect a large ground displacement induced by fault movement. The records of the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake, Taiwan, verify this new index. As a result, the new index using the velocity wave form obtained from strong ground motion records within few kilometers from fault rupture identifies occurrence of a large ground displacement induced by fault movement.
