  • In the studies on fault dislocation of tunnel, existing literatures are mainly focused on the problems caused by normal and reverse faults, but few on strike-slip faults. The paper aims to research the deformation and failure mechanism of a tunnel under strike-slip faulting based on a model test and test-calibrated numerical simulation. A potential faulting hazard condition is considered for a real water tunnel in central Yunnan, China. Based on the faulting hazard to tunnel, laboratory model tests were conducted with a test apparatus that specially designed for strike-slip faults. Then, to verify the results obtained from the model test, a finite element model was built. By comparison, the numerical results agree with tested ones well. The results indicated that most of the shear deformation and damage would appear within fault fracture zone. The tunnel exhibited a horizontal S-shaped deformation profile under strike-slip faulting. The side walls of the tunnel mainly experience tension and compression strain state, while the roof and floor of the tunnel would be in a shear state. Circular cracks on tunnel near fault fracture zone were more significant owing to shear effects of strike-slip faulting, while the longitudinal cracks occurred at the hanging wall.

  • A new trigonometrical method for calculating total slip (T) of faulting is presented. The parameters for the calculations are used rake of fault striation, strike and dip of fault and of index planar structure such as bedding plane. The faults are groupped into three types. The direction of plunging of fault striation is out of a range ${\pm}90^{\circ}$ to the bedding dip direction in $360^{\circ}$ system, which is groupped into the type I. Meanwhile, the case of the direction lies in the above range can be separated into two different types, type II and type III, according to relative largeness of the angles rake of fault striation and i (see text). The type II has smaller rake than angle i and the type III has larger rake than angle i. Here I propose a few equations for calculating not only total slip (T) but strike slip (L) or dip slip (S) of the faulting. The equations are adapted selectively to the types of fault mentioned before. The limitation of the method is that the equations do not fit to polyphase faulting.

  • In and around the Korean Peninsula 22 intraplate earthquake mechanisms since 1936 were analyzed to understand the regional stress orientation and tectonics. These 22 earthquakes are largest ones in this century and may represent the characteristics of earthquake in the region. Focal mechanism of earthquakes in the region show predominant strike-slip faulting with small amount of thrust components. The average P-axis is almost horizontal ENE- WSW. Studied data are compared with neighboring intraplate region in order to understand the tectonic regime in far est Asia. In northeastern China strike-slip faulting is dominant and nearly horizontal average P-axis in ENE- WSW is very similar with the Korean Peninsula. On the other hand in the eastern part of East Sea thrust faulting is dominant and average P-axis is horizontal with ESE- WSW This indicate that not only the subducting Pacific Plate in east but also the indenting Indian Plate controls earthquake mechanism in the far east of the Eurasian Plate.

  • 소규모 역단층성 변위에 의한 단층주변부의 Coulomb stress의 변화를 모델 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 단층의 기하학적 형태와 응력자료는 경주시에 위치한 제4기 단층인 읍천단층의 조건을 적용하였다. Coulomb stress 모델링에서 단층면을 따라 역단층성 소규모 변위(10cm)를 가정할 경우 단층의 가장자리 주변(주향방향 양끝과 경사방향)에서 Coulomb stress의 변화가 상대적으로 높게(>2 bar) 나타났고 단층의 상하부에서 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 단층의 수직적인 단면에서는 단층의 직하부와 단층 주향의 수직방향에 "T" 자 형태의 낮은 음의 값을 보였다. 본 연구 결과는 주 단층의 역단층성 변위에 의해 나타나는 여진의 전파경로 양상을 보여준다.

  • Ogchon Supergroup directly contacts with Choseon Supergroup in the northern area of Worak-san, where evidences indicating thrust-fault formed during $D_2$-deformation are observed. On footwall of thrust fault, calcite veins in Gounri Formation belonging to Choson Supergroup may be deformed during thrust faulting($D_2$). Calcite veins are parallel to axial plane cleavage($S_2$) of $F_2$ fold and truncate slaty cleavage($S_1$). Therefore, we can use deformation twins in calcite grains of the veins as a marker for inferred differential stress operated upon thrust faulting. The inferred differential stresses are estimated at 190 Mpa from K, sample. The stress from K, sample close to the contact between Ogchon Supergroup and Choseon Supergroup shows a higher value than $K_2$-$K_6$ samples, probably having an important influence upon thrust faulting. The differential stress reveal again high value at $K_7$ sample, which may suggest the presence of another thrust fault.

  • The source parameters of four earthquakes with magnitude larger than 4.0 nearby the offshore Sinan are analyzed. The waveform inversion method is used for analyzing the source parameters of two events (20 August 2012 and 21 April 2013) with C&B and AK135-c crustal velocity structure models. The source parameters of the other two events (26 July 1994 and 23 March 2003) are obtained from references. Focal mechanisms of the events are strike slip faulting or strike slip faulting with a thrust component. The directions of P-axes of the events are ENE-WSW or NE-SW which are similar to previous studies on P-axes in and around the Korean peninsula. With regard to the events nearby the offshore Sinan, the regional stress, rather than being local stress, is seen to be the result of the combination of tectonic forces from the compression of plates colliding to the Eurasian Plate.

  • The history of the Palgongsan Fault comprises the growth-fault, the dormant and the strike-slip phases. Dissecting the Palgongsan Granite, the Palgongsan Strike-slip Fault, which is the product of the final phase, sinistrally offset about 5.5 km as shown in the dislocation of the Hasandong Formation. Faulting, sedimentation and igneous activity were inter-related in the early phases of the Palgongsan Fault. Some other faults such as the Dansan Pond Fault and the Hayang Fault have also been discovered, and their some stratigraphic implications and the ages of faulting are discussed. The anomalous development of the Jindong Formation in the study area and the related stratigraphic problems are discussed. It has been confirmed that the Konchonri Formation deposited over the Chaeyaksan Volcanic Formation in spite of the recent doubts on their such stratigraphic relation. The chronological sequence of the volcanisms of the Kyongsang Basin has been summarized.

  • Most large strike-slip faults do not rupture their entire length during single faulting but generally break in segments which are different in location and time of faulting. Studies related to the development of the Yangsan fault have been reported based on partial results from characteristics of geolgocial distribution, geophysical prospecting and paleostress analyses. This paper shows, based on preliminary results, that the Yangsan fault could be divided into four structural areas along entire length. These areas are different in geological distribution, bedding attitude measured from sedimentary rocks, strike of main fault, geometry of small faults, termination types of fault tips, cyclic variation of fault zone width, and arrangement of paleostress. Therefore, the Yangsan fault could be divided into at least four segments.
