Abstract

The fault failure process with time difference affects the initial generation of waveforms of tsunamis, which consequently changes the runup height on the coast. To examine the effect of time difference in fault failure process on the runup height, a numerical simulation was conducted assuming a number of virtual subsea earthquakes in the west coast of Japan. Results revealed that maximum runup heights along the east coast of Korea were minimal when the subfaults were aligned parallel with the shoreline. Meanwhile, if they were located perpendicular to the shoreline, the superposition effect of the initial surface by each subfault was noticeable, resulting in an increase in maximum runup height on the coast.

시간차를 지닌 단층파괴 활동은 지진해일의 초기파형 생성에 영향을 끼치며, 이로 인해 해안에서의 처오름 높이에도 변화를 준다. 이러한 단층파괴 활동이 처오름 높이에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여 일본 서해역에 다수의 가상 단층파괴를 가정하여 수치모의를 수행하였다. 소단층들이 해안선에 평행하게 위치한 경우에는 시간차를 지닌 단층파괴가 처오름 높이에 미치는 영향은 미미했으나, 해안선에 수직으로 위치해 있는 경우에는 초기파형의 중첩효과가 두드러지게 발생하여 해안선에서 처오름 높이가 증가하였다.
