  • Outstanding Award (1)Title: My Colorful Life in Sakai
    Outstanding Award (1)Title: My colorful life in Sakai (2)Name: WANG JINGXIAN 1.Charms of Sakai City Sakai is situated in Osaka Prefecture, Japan. As one of Japan's largest port cities, Sakai was known for its Samurai swords and remains the manufacturing center for the country's highest-quality knives. For foreign students like me, I think Sakai is full of happiness. I used to live in Shinsaibashi. Ever since I settled to Sakai, I have found that not only has the quality of life enhanced, but the daily expenses have also decreased. Compared with the bustling hustle of Osaka city, after a hard-working day wandering on the silent street, you can feel peace and warmth. Without the cover of high buildings, I can see the same moon as my family see in China. Although sometimes I feel homesick, I still feel vitality from the people who work hard to live. After coming to Sakai City, I feel that I have a close relationship with the locals. Every Friday, the Japanese language classroom of the public hall can thrill me. Through the communication with volunteer teachers, I've learned the culture of Sakai city that makes my life here more fulfilling. Joy can be shared on. Seeing the smiles of the choir members next to the Japanese classroom, I can feel the city is full of happiness. 2.OPU promotions Osaka Prefecture University(OPU) is one of the largest public universities in Japan. In 2022, Osaka Prefecture University and Osaka City University will merge. The new university will become the Japanese largest public university which has the potential to be the best university in Japan.

  • Damage Assessment of Expressway Networks in Japan Based on Seismic Monitoring
    0551 DAMAGE ASSESSMENT OF EXPRESSWAY NETWORKS IN JAPAN BASED ON SEISMIC MONITORING Fumio YAMAZAKI1, Hitoshi MOTOMURA2 And Tatsuya HAMADA3 SUMMARY Fragility curves for expressway structures in Japan were proposed based on actual damage data from the 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu (Kobe) Earthquake. First, spatial distributions of strong motion indices, e.g., the peak ground acceleration, the peak ground velocity, the JMA seismic intensity, were estimated using Kriging technique, in which attenuation relations of these indices are considered as trend components. The actual damage data for expressway structures in Japan due to the 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake were compared with these estimated ground motion indices and then fragility curves were constructed assuming log-normal distributions. Together with a seismic network for the expressway networks, the proposed fragility curves may be used in seismic damage assessment of expressway structures in Japan. INTRODUCTION Japan Highway Public Corporation (JH) owns expressway networks with a total length of 6,456 km (as of April, 1999). In order to gather earthquake information at an early stage (Yamazaki et al., 1998) and to establish an efficient traffic control just after an earthquake, JH had deployed 123 accelerometers along its expressways (1 instrument per 40 km) before the Hyogoken-Nanbu (Kobe) Earthquake on January 17, 1995. JH further deployed 202 new seismometers along its expressways (1 instrument per 20 km together with existing ones) after the Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake (Fig. 1). The new instruments can measure the spectrum intensity (SI) and the instrumental JMA (Japan Meteorological Agency) intensity (Shabestari and Yamazaki, 1998) as well as the peak ground acceleration (PGA).
