  • New Empirical Relationships Among Magnitude, Rupture Length, Rupture Width, Rupture Area, and Surface Displacement
    Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, Vol. 84, No. 4, pp. 974-1002, August 1994 New Empirical Relationships among Magnitude, Rupture Length, Rupture Width, Rupture Area, and Surface Displacement by Donald L. Wells and Kevin J. Coppersmith Abstract Source parameters for historical earthquakes worldwide are com­ piled to develop a series of empirical relationships among moment magnitude (M), surface rupture length, subsurface rupture length, downdip rupture width, rupture area, and maximum and average displacement per event. The resulting data base is a significant update of previous compilations and includes the ad­ ditional source parameters of seismic moment, moment magnitude, subsurface rupture length, downdip rupture width, and average surface displacement. Each source parameter is classified as reliable or unreliable, based on our evaluation of the accuracy of individual values. Only the reliable source parameters are used in the final analyses. In comparing source parameters, we note the fol­ lowing trends: (1) Generally, the length of rupture at the surface is equal to 75% of the subsurface rupture length; however, the ratio of surface rupture length to subsurface rupture length increases with magnitude; (2) the average surface dis­ placement per event is about one-half the maximum surface displacement per event; and (3) the average subsurface displacement on the fault plane is less than the maximum surface displacement but more than the average surface dis­ placement. Thus, for most earthquakes in this data base, slip on the fault plane at seismogenic depths is manifested by similar displacements at the surface. Log-linear regressions between earthquake magnitude and surface rupture length, subsurface rupture length, and rupture area are especially well correlated, show­ ing standard deviations of 0.25 to 0.35 magnitude units.

  • What Works and Does Not Work in the Science and Social Science Of
    What Works and Does not Work in the Science and Social Science of Earthquake Vulnerability? Report of an International Workshop held in the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Oxford on 28 th and 29 th January, 2011. Philip England1, John Holmes, James Jackson & Barry Parsons This Workshop, supported by Shell, Chun Wo Development Holdings (Hong Kong), and the National Centre for Earth Observation, was held in response to NERC’s Action Plan: Increasing resilience through improved hazard forecasting and take-up of scientific advice in earthquake-prone and volcanic regions. Over fifty scientists, social scientists, and engineers attended the Workshop, bringing exten- sive experience of earthquake risk from Greece, India, Italy, Iran, Pakistan, Turkey, and the USA. The list of the international participants is given in Appendix B, and electronic versions of their presentations can be found on the Workshop website. The participants considered earthquake resilience in a global context, but were also aware of the constraints (Rees) associated with NERC’s Programme in Increasing Resilience to Natural Hazards, particularly the limited budget and time frame. Their discussion therefore was also conditioned by the following questions: (i) Which areas in UK science can make the greatest impact in increasing resilience and reducing uncertainty about risk? (ii) What practical outcomes can be achieved within the financial and temporal constraints of this programme? The following recommendations arose from the two days of discussion: - The overwhelming priority, when considering resilience to earthquakes, is the risk to human life in the developing world. (Section 1) - The greatest risk to human life from earthquakes lies not at plate boundaries, but in the conti- nental interiors, where growing populations are exposed to earthquake risk from distributed networks of faults that are poorly characterized.

  • Seismic Hazard Assessment for Phase-1 Design, Hakkari Dam
    13th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering Vancouver, B.C., Canada August 1-6, 2004 Paper No. 1003 SEISMIC HAZARD ASSESSMENT FOR PHASE-I DESIGN, HAKKARI DAM, TURKEY Alan HULL1, Anthony AUGELLO1, and Mustafa ERDIK2 SUMMARY Deterministic and probabilistic seismic hazard analyses are used to select ground motions at the Hakkari dam site, Turkey. Deterministic analysis indicates that an Mw 7.4 14 km from the dam is the Controlling Maximum Credible Earthquake (CMCE). The CMCE has an estimated PGA of 0.34g (median) and 0.50g (84th-percentile) for critical dam structures. Probabilistic analysis used 11 source zones, a background seismic activity rate and three equally-weighted PGA attenuation relationships. The 475-year return period PGA of 0.26g is recommended as the maximum design earthquake for non-critical structures. A PGA of 0.17g is recommended for the operating base earthquake ground motion. INTRODUCTION The Hakkari Electric Power Project (HEPP)—one of nine planned developments under a U.S.-Turkish Joint Statement for bilateral cooperation—has completed Phase I final design. The Hakkari Consortium of U.S., Turkish and Swiss companies will complete design and construction of HEPP. The owner and operator of the HEPP will be the Turkish State Hydraulic Works—Devlet Su Isleri (DSI). Elektrik Isleri Etut Idaresi (EIE) provided an initial HEPP conceptual design and layout comprising a rock-fill embankment dam, 11-km long power tunnel and an annual generation capacity of 625.5 GWh. Pietz and Aker [1] summarized the main features of the project. The HEPP is located in Southeastern Anatolia, within the rugged and mountainous Zap River basin between 37.23º and 38.39ºN and 43.30º and 44.56ºE (Figure 1).

The major energy release occurred within 20 seconds although the total duration of the rupture was about 50 seconds. According to the official report, the casualties are 604 and the number of injured people is more than 4000, which were caused by collapsed or damaged residential and commercial buildings. A number of buildings collapsed particularly in Erciş town (about 60 buildings) and Van (one building). In this earthquake, liquefaction and associated ground deformations were evident and wide spread sand boils were observed particularly in Erciş Plain and the flood plain of Karasu River at the north of Van city. 17 days after the Van-Erciş earthquake, the region was also hit by another earthquake with a magnitude of 5.6 (Mw) on November 9, 2011 at 19:23 on local time. Because the epicenter of this earthquake is located near Edremit, which is a town on the eastern shore of Van Lake about 16 km to the south of Van city centre, the earthquake is called Van-Edremit earthquake.

Self-similarity of the earthquakes occurred in the Eurasia-Arabia collision zone Abstract The relationship of faulting parameters obtained by analyzing the earthquake focal mechanisms and rupture histories is one of the main topics of seismology. In this study, we have studied the relationship of the pa- rameters such as magnitude, rupture area, stress drop of the earthquakes occurred in the Eurasia-Arabia collision zone. We used two inversion techniques to find out the source parameters. First, the long period and broad-band body waveforms recorded by GDSN stations in the distance rage of 30°–90° were inverted and the fault orientation, centroid depth, seismic moment and source time function of each event were ob- tained with minimum misfit solution.

    An application of earthquake prediction algorithm M8 in eastern Anatolia at the approach of the 2011 Van earthquake Masoud Mojarab1, Vladimir Kossobokov2,3, Hossein Memarian1,∗ and Mehdi Zare4 1School of Mining Engineering, University of Tehran, Tehran, Iran. 2Institute of Earthquake Prediction Theory and Mathematical Geophysics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russian Federation. 3Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris, Paris, France. 4Seismology Research Center, International Institute of Earthquake Engineering and Seismology (IIEES), Tehran, Iran. ∗Corresponding author. e-mail: [email protected] On 23rd October 2011, an M7.3 earthquake near the Turkish city of Van, killed more than 600 people, injured over 4000, and left about 60,000 homeless. It demolished hundreds of buildings and caused great damages to thousand others in Van, Ercis, Muradiye, and C¸ aldıran. The earthquake’s epicenter is located about 70 km from a preceding M7.3 earthquake that occurred in November 1976 and destroyed several villages near the Turkey–Iran border and killed thousands of people. This study, by means of retrospective application of the M8 algorithm, checks to see if the 2011 Van earthquake could have been predicted. The algorithm is based on pattern recognition of Times of Increased Probability (TIP) of a target earthquake from the transient seismic sequence at lower magnitude ranges in a Circle of Investigation (CI). Specifically, we applied a modified M8 algorithm adjusted to a rather low level of earthquake detection in the region following three different approaches to determine seismic transients. In the first approach, CI centers are distributed on intersections of morphostructural lineaments recog- nized as prone to magnitude 7+ earthquakes.
