  • Uredas, URGENT EARTHQUAKE DETECTION and ALARM SYSTEM, NOW and FUTURE
    13th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering Vancouver, B.C., Canada August 1-6, 2004 Paper No. 908 UrEDAS, URGENT EARTHQUAKE DETECTION AND ALARM SYSTEM, NOW AND FUTURE Yutaka NAKAMURA 1 SUMMARY UrEDAS, Urgent Earthquake Detection and Alarm System, can realize the real-time early earthquake detection and alarm system in the world. There is a local government that has realized a tsunami warning system using real-time estimated earthquake parameters as magnitude and location, distributed by UrEDAS. On 26th May 2003, the Miyagiken-Oki Earthquake was occurred. It was so large that the maximum acceleration of about 600 Gal was observed along the Shinkansen line and 23 columns of the rigid frame viaducts (RC) were severely cracked. This earthquake occurred on the business hours of the Shinkansen. As expected, coastline “Compact UrEDAS” along the Shinkansen took out the early P-wave alarm before the destructive earthquake motion and the validity of this system was proved for the first time. INTRODUCTION UrEDAS is the only real time P-wave alarm system over the world on practical use. It is characterized to be able to process digitized waveform step by step without saving. Amount of procedure does not differs either earthquake occurs or not, so failure because of over load will not occur. The 2003 Miyagiken-Oki earthquake (Mj 7.1) occurred on 26th May, Compact UrEDAS worked as expected. It was for the first time that the validity of the early warning system was verified under circumstances of big earthquake such as rigid frame viaducts of Shinkansen were damaged. In this paper, the present condition of P-wave early detection system UrEDAS will be viewed referring to cases at work, also result of test observation where faults exists will be reported.

  • Myths & Legends of Japan
    Myths & Legends Of Japan By F. Hadland Davis Myths & Legends of Japan CHAPTER I: THE PERIOD OF THE GODS In the Beginning We are told that in the very beginning "Heaven and Earth were not yet separated, and the In and Yo not yet divided." This reminds us of other cosmogony stories. The In and Yo, corresponding to the Chinese Yang and Yin, were the male and female principles. It was more convenient for the old Japanese writers to imagine the coming into being of creation in terms not very remote from their own manner of birth. In Polynesian mythology we find pretty much the same conception, where Rangi and Papa represented Heaven and Earth, and further parallels may be found in Egyptian and other cosmogony stories. In nearly all we find the male and female principles taking a prominent, and after all very rational, place. We are told in theNihongi that these male and female principles "formed a chaotic mass like an egg which was of obscurely defined limits and contained germs." Eventually this egg was quickened into life, and the purer and clearer part was drawn out and formed Heaven, while the heavier element settled down and became Earth, which was "compared to the floating of a fish sporting on the surface of the water." A mysterious form resembling a reed-shoot suddenly appeared between Heaven and Earth, and as suddenly became transformed into a God called Kuni-toko- tachi, ("Land-eternal-stand-of-august-thing"). We may pass over the other divine births until we come to the important deities known as Izanagi and Izanami ("Male-who-invites" and "Female-who-invites").
