  • 오레곤 연안 산맥 남부에 분포하는 에오세 퇴적층들에 대한 탄화수소 근원암 평가가 Rock-eval 열분석을 이용 수행되었다. 오레곤 연안 산맥 남부의 에오세 퇴적층 대부분은 가스성향의 Type III 케로겐들을 소량 포함하고 있으며, 열적으로도 미숙성 되었다. 그러나 탄층을 포함하여 일부 퇴적층은 인접 지역에서 발견되는 유기적 또는 열적으로 생성된 메탄가스징들의 근원암이 될 수 있을 정도로 충분한 유기물들을 포함하고 있다. 오레곤 연안 산맥 남부의 에오세 퇴적층에 대한 탄화수소 근원암 평가는 전반적으로 낮게 평가된다. 그러나 오레곤 연안 산맥 남부 및 인접 지역에 상업적으로 생산될 수 있는 규모의 탄화수소 집적소들이 존재할 가능성이 있으며, 세 종류의 가능성 있는 석유 시스템이 인지된다. 가장 가능성이 높은 석유 시스템은 오레곤 연안 산맥 남부와 중생대 클라매쓰 산맥 북부의 인접 지역에 나타나며, 섭입대 성숙 메카니즘과 관련된 트러스트를 따라 발달하는 석유 시스템이다. 두 번째 가능성 있는 석유 시스템은 오레곤 연안 산맥 북부에 과압력대와 연관되어 발달될 수 있는 분지중심가스의 석유 시스템이며, 세 번째 석유 시스템은 오레곤 연안 산맥 서부에 나타나는 제3기 화산활동과 연계되어 생성된 열수용액들의 이동과 관입암체들에 의한 열적 숙성에 의한 석유 시스템이다.

  • The area where age dating of the seafloor and interpretation of geomagnetic basic structure are conducted is also important in the aspect of geophysics. Near the sea mount (water depth to the top is 3900m and 6500m to the bottom), there are Mesozoic magnetic lineations at the sea-side flank along the trench axis. A two dimensional model analysis of Talwani and Heirtzler(1964) and a three dimensional model analysis of Talwani are performed by using data obtained from the marine proton magnetometer. Distribution, direction of the lineation, amplitude and period of magnetic anomaly are correlated and analysed with speed of the plate movement and lineation of the sea mount. In the west and north-west Pacific there are lots of huge sea mounts retaining the history of oceanic crust. This indicates that geomagnetic basis subsided into the oceanic crust and has interest in the aspects of the isostasy theory of the gravity.

  • Peninsular Malaysia lying on the stable Sunda Plate has traditionally been considered safe with low to moderate seismicity. However, far field Sumatran mega-earthquakes have been shown to be capable of triggering ground motions felt in high rise structures in the major Malaysian cities while seismic impact from local earthquakes of moment magnitude 3.8 have reportedly induced nominal structural damages to nearby buildings. This paper presents an overview of the recent seismic activities in and around Peninsular Malaysia with reference to prominent earthquakes generated by far field interplate and local intraplate sources. Records of ground motion data and seismic hazard assessment (SHA) results available in the literature have been analyzed and discussed. The peak ground acceleration (PGA) values from historical records for few local intraplate events were observed to be higher than those for the events from Sumatran Subduction Zone. This clearly points to the need for a detailed and comprehensive SHA incorporating both far field and local sources. Such an analysis would contribute the knowledge required for secure and reliable infrastructure design and safeguard the Malaysian people and economy.

  • 한국 남부에서 섭입 해구의 방향과 나란히 쌍으로 발달한 화산대가 발견된다. 경상분지와 영동-광주 함몰대의 화산암류는 거의 나란한 양상을 보이며, 이들은 각각 동일한 섭입 체계에 따르는 첫 번째 화산대, 두 번째 화산대이다. 경상분지와 영동-광주 함몰대 화산암류의 불호정성 원소 함량은 호를 가로지르는 변화를 뚜렷하게 보인다. 즉, 첫 번째 화산대 (경상분지 및 남해안 도서지역)용암들의 불호정성 원소 함량은 두 번째 화산대 (영동-광주 함몰대)에 비해 더욱 결핍되며 두 번째 화산대에서 더욱 증가하는 경향을 보인다. 이와 같이 호를 가로지르는 변화를 보이는 것은, 탈수과정 동안 유체상과 공존하는 고체상의 차이에 기인한 것으로 보인다. 두 번째 화산대의 불호정성 원소의 함량, Zr/Y 비, Rb/K 비는 첫 번째 화산대에 비해 더 깊은 깊이에서 더 적은 정도의 부분 용융, 그리고 용융 과정에서의 잔류 석류석에 기인할 것이다.

  • Along the subduction-zone of the western Japanese islands, large earthquakes are expected occur around the middle of this century, and long-period ground motions will reach major urban areas, shaking high-rise buildings violently. Since some old high-rise buildings were designed without considering long-period ground motions, reinforcing such buildings is an important issue. An effective method to reinforce existing high-rise buildings is installing additional dampers. However, a problem with ordinary dampers is that they require reinforcement of surrounding columns and girders to support large reaction forces generated during earthquake ground motion. To solve this problem, a deformation-dependent oil damper was developed. The most attractive feature of this damper is to reduce the damping force at the moment when the frame deformation comes close to its maximum value. Due to this feature, the reinforcement of columns, girders, and foundations are no longer required. The authors applied seismic retrofitting with a deformation-dependent oil damper to an existing 54-story office building (Shinjuku Center Building) located in Shinjuku ward, Tokyo, in 2009 to suppress vibration under the long period earthquake ground motions. The seismic responses were observed in the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake, and it is clarified that the damping ratio was higher and the response lower by 20% as compared to the building without dampers.

  • The eastward extension of the suture zone between the Sino-Korea and Yangtze cratons in the Korean Peninsula and Japanese islands remains debatable (Hiroi, 1981; Cluzel et al., 1991; Yin and Nie, 1993; Sohma and Kunugiza, 1993; Isozaki, 1997; Arakawa et at., 2000), and is related to our understanding of the continent-continent collision orogeny. The collision orogeny varies in tectono-metamorphic processes and the timing differs from place to place, as exemplified by the absence of coesite and micro-diamond in the Korean Peninsula and Japanese islands, because it is a long-lived process of more than several tens of million years from subduction to exhumation in the Wilson cycle, and because the suture zone extends more than several thousand kilometers with a curved shape from the Qinling area of China to the Hida highland area of Japan. Hiroi (1981) is the first paper to correlate the Unazuki metamorphic rocks of the Hida metamorphic belt in Japan with the Ogcheon belt in the Korean Peninsula based on the presence of 240 Ma medium P/T metamorphic rocks in both belts, but there is a lack of recent studies on this correlation. To resolve the correlationship, there are two approaches: 1) petrological studies characterizing the origin and P-T history of rocks and 2) in-situ micro-dating of fine-grained, zoned minerals of zircon, monazite, uraninite and thorite using the EPMA (U-Th-Pb chemical dating or CHIME depending on calibration method) and the SHRIMP (Sensitive High-resolution ion Microprobe) to decipher the timing of geological events. As a first step of these approaches, micro-dating was undertaken to rocks of the Hida metamorphic belt and its Mesozoic cover (Tetori Group) in the Hida highland area, central Japan.

  • Recent earthquakes have damaged some bridges located on the Pacific Coast of Mexico; these bridges have been retrofitted or rebuilt. Based on the fact that the Pacific Coast is a highly active seismic zone where most of the strong earthquakes in the country occur, one fertile and important area of research is the study of the vulnerability of both new and existent bridges located in this area that can be subjected to strong earthquakes. This work is focused on estimating the contribution of some parameters identified to have major influence on the seismic vulnerability of reinforced concrete bridges. Ten models of typical reinforced concrete (RC) bridges, and two existing bridges located close to the Pacific Coast of Mexico are considered. The group of structures selected for the study is based on two span bridges, two pier heights and two substructure types. The bridges were designed according to recent codes in Mexico. For the vulnerability study, the capacity of the structure was evaluated based on the FEMA recommendations. On the other hand, the demand was evaluated using a group of more than one hundred accelerograms recorded close to the subduction zone of Mexico. The results show that the two existent bridges analyzed show similar trends of behavior of the group of bridge models studied. In spite of the contribution that traditional variables (height and substructure type) had to the bridge seismic response, the bridge length was also found to be one of the parameters that most contributed to the seismic vulnerability of these RC medium-length bridges.

  • Ground motion models predict the mean and standard deviation of the logarithm of spectral acceleration, as a function of predictor variables such as earthquake magnitude, distance and site condition. Such models have been developed for a variety of seismic environments throughout the world. Some calculations, such as the Conditional Mean Spectrum calculation, use this information but additionally require knowledge of correlation coefficients between logarithmic spectral acceleration values at multiple periods. Such correlation predictions have, to date, been developed primarily from data recorded in the Western United States from active shallow crustal earthquakes. This paper describes results from a study of spectral acceleration correlations from Japanese earthquake ground motion data that includes both crustal and subduction zone earthquakes. Comparisons are made between estimated correlations for Japanese response spectral ordinates and correlation estimates developed from Western United States ground motion data. The effect of ground motion model, earthquake source mechanism, seismic zone, site conditions, and source to site distance on estimated correlations is evaluated and discussed. Confidence intervals on these correlation estimates are introduced, to aid in identifying statistically significant differences in correlations among the factors considered. Observed general trends in correlation are similar to previous studies, with the exception of correlation of spectral accelerations between orthogonal components, which is seen to be higher here than previously observed. Some differences in correlations between earthquake source zones and earthquake mechanisms are observed, and so tables of correlations coefficients for each specific case are provided.
