  • Construction and Integration of Gis Databases for Risk Assessment of Nationally Designated Cultural Properties Due to Earthquakes and Typhoons in Japan

Futagami a, *, M. Morii a, T.

Whether a cultural property is damaged or not by a certain natural disaster is controlled by the (1) magnitude of disaster, (2) distance between the cultural property site and the disaster source, (3) surrounding environment, and (4) vulnerability of the cultural property itself or the storage building for the case of movable property. For these reasons, the use of geographic information system (GIS) is considered to be effective in estimating damage as precaution to cultural properties, immediate and rescue of them at the time of disasters by integrating their spatial and attribute information. In Japan, earthquakes and typhoons are two of major natural disasters, so we assessed the risk by integrating the GIS databases of cultural properties and these natural disasters. We calculated the probabilities of occurrence of intraplate earthquakes ≥ JMA seismic intensity 5+ in 50 years, and overlaid with the GIS database of nationally designated cultural properties.

  • History of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering in Japan
    th The 14 World Conference on Earthquake Engineering October 12-17, 2008, Beijing, China HISTORY OF GEOTECHNICAL EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING IN JAPAN 1 I. Towhata 1 Professor, Dept. of Civil Engineering , University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT : Japan is vulnerable to earthquakes and has historically experienced many kinds of seismic damages. The modern earthquake engineering was initiated by introduction of the seismic coefficient method. It was applied to geotechnical engineering as the Mononobe-Okabe dynamic earth pressure theory in 1920s. The 1923 Kanto earthquake supplied a valuable knowledge on the effects of local soil conditions on the damage extent. Liquefaction attracted the first engineering concern after the 1964 Niigata earthquake. Since then, the points of concern have varied from its causative mechanism and assessment of liquefaction risk through preventive measure to consequence of liquefaction and its prediction in the context of performance-based design principle. Moreover, many technologies have developed to mitigate the liquefaction risk. In addition to reinforcing structures as has been conventionally done, the development of lifelines since 1980s resulted in real-time earthquake engineering. Thus, there are many ideas and evolution of geotechnical earthquake engineering in Japan which is frequently attacked by earthquakes and is actually a natural laboratory of earthquake engineering. KEYWORDS: seismic coefficient, earth pressure, history, geotechnical, liquefaction 1. INTRODUCTION Located on the boundary between the Pacific Ocean and the Eurasian Continent, Japan has historically experienced many strong earthquakes. The first written record of an earthquake is found in AD 413. In the 7th Century, there are already detailed written records about earthquake damages.

The best of Japan in one place –Ishikawa Prefecture. Message from Ishikawa Prefecture is located almost in the agricultural landscapes and coastal areas. It is The Governor of center of the Japanese archipelago. From North a region filled with opportunities to experience to South it is a long prefecture, with a peninsula and relax, with some of Japan’s best hot springs, Ishikawa Prefecture and surrounded by the sea on three sides. It is fresh seafood and other produce, but above all, a geographically unique with various features welcoming, hospitable culture. We are proud of including the sea, mountains, rivers and plains. these authentic experiences that can transcend Ishikawa is at a similar latitude to Tokyo where language and culture.
