Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Beyond the traditional framework of the 1-D velocity structure, the horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) of microseisms, derived from full-wave field in a three-dimensional topographical model (the Osaka sedimentary basin) was produced by finite differential method (FDM)-based simulation. The FDM simulations confirmed the phenomena such as the polarization of the peak amplitude of the HVSRs in grabens and step structures in the sediment-bedrock interface. In addition, it was showed that the features of the peak frequency, the peak value and the shape of HVSRs in areas with strong irregularities in the sediment-bedrock interface are different from those of the HVSR estimation based on the 1-D velocity structure model.
