Bam, Iran Earthquake of 26 December 2003, Mw6.5: a Study on the Strong Ground Motions
13th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering Vancouver, B.C., Canada August 1-6, 2004 Paper No. 8001 BAM, IRAN EARTHQUAKE OF 26 DECEMBER 2003, MW6.5: A STUDY ON THE STRONG GROUND MOTIONS Mehdi ZARE1 SUMMARY The Bam earthquake of 26 December 2003 (Mw6.5) occurred at 01:56:56 (GMT, 05:26:56 local time) around the city of Bam in the southeast of Iran. The Bam earthquake of 26/12/2003 (Mw6.5) has demolished the city of Bam, having a population of about 100000 at the time of the earthquake. The Bam fault - which was mapped before the event on the geological maps - has been reactivated during the 26/12/2003 earthquake. It seems that a length of about 10km (at the surface) of this fault has been reactivated, where it passed exactly from the east of the city of Bam. The fault has a slop towards the west and the foci of the event was located closed to the residential area (almost beneath the city of Bam). This caused a great damage in the macroseismic epicentral zone; however the strong motions have been attenuated very rapidly, specially towards the east-and west (fault normal) direction. The vertical directivity effects caused the amplification of the low frequency motions in the fault-normal direction as well as the greater amplitude of the motion on the vertical direction. INTRODUCTION The Bam earthquake of 26/12/2003 (Mw6.5) demolished the city of Bam in the southeast of Iran (Figure- 1). The earthquake happened at 5:26 am local time when most of the inhabitants were slept, that can be one of the causes of the great life losses. -

This area is structurally and geological division in the Urmia-Dokhtar zone. The Urmia- Dokhtar volcanic belt part of the Alpine-Himalayan is a volcanic belt. Several intrusive bodies are in the east of Jiroft, which is part of Jebalbarez Batolite andigneous actives of JabalBarez area have occurred in four stages. The third magma activity of the region occurred in Oligomiocene and occurred during three phases. its lithological composition includes synogranite and Monzogranite, granodiorite, diorite, quartz monzonite. Quartz, Plagioclase and Potassium feldspar are the major minerals in granites. Biotite, Amphibole, espen, opac minerals are other manufactores of these rocks. Various types of granular, myrmekitic, Graphic and perthite textures are observed in them. Regarding field studies, petrographic, and geochemical studies, granite rocks of meta-aluminum and granitoid components of Iseries are volcanic arc of the continental margin of orogenic region that originate from melting of shell-shaped igneous rocks. -

Tafoni Phenomena in the Kerman Province of Iran: Short Description and Pictures
Geo-Eco-Trop., 2014, 38, 2 : 289-304 Tafoni phenomena in the Kerman Province of Iran: Short description and pictures Brève description avec illustrations photographiques de phénomènes Tafoni dans la province de Kerman en Iran Iradj ESCHGHI (*) Résumé : La formation de tafoni dans la province de Kerman en Iran est présentée pour la première fois dans la note brève ci-après avec une galerie de photos illustrative. Les tafoni représentés se développent en plusieurs endroits dans différents matériaux rocheux: du basalte dans le désert de Lut, un champ volcanique du Plateau de Gandom Beryan, de l’andésite dans la grotte d’Ayub près de la ville de Dehaj, du tuf volcanique dans le village de Marj et du grès près de la ville de Hojedk. Mots-clés: Iran, Province de Kerman, Formation de Tafoni, Différents matériaux rocheux Abstract: Tafoni formation in the Kerman province of Iran is described for the first time in this paper illustrated by a pictures gallery. Tafoni develop in lots of areas in different rock types such as: basalt in the Lut desert, volcanic field of the Gandom Beryan Plateau , andesite in the Ayub cave near the town of Dehaj , tuff near the village of Marj and sandstone near the town of Hojedk Keywords: Iran, Kerman province, Tafoni formation, Various rock types INTRODUCTION Because of thermal changes, mineral decomposition, water and wind action, and salt weathering, natural cavities called Tafoni develop in various (granular) rock types. These cavities are of different forms: spherical, ellipsoidal, kidney-shaped, pan to bowl shaped… The origin of the word tafoni is uncertain; maybe it is derived from the Corsican dialect “tafone” and is synonymous with window (KLAER 1956). -
Characteristics of 2017 Hojedk Earthquake Sequence in Kerman Province, Southeast Iran
Revista Geoaraguaia ISSN:2236-9716 Barra do Garças – MT v.10, n. esp. Geologia e Pedologia p.187-201. Dez-2020 CHARACTERISTICS OF 2017 HOJEDK EARTHQUAKE SEQUENCE IN KERMAN PROVINCE, SOUTHEAST IRAN CARACTERÍSTICAS DA SEQUÊNCIA DE TERREMOTO HOJEDK 2017 NA PROVÍNCIA DE KERMAN, SUDESTE DO IRÃ Nassim Mahdavi-Omran1 Mohammad-Reza Gheitanchi2 ABSTRACT Kerman province in southeast Iran, has experienced historical and instrumentally recorded earthquakes. In December 2017, three destructive earthquakes have occurred around Hojedk, in Kerman within 11 days. In this study, first the regional seismotectonics and seismicity is presented. Then, the source mechanisms of main shocks are modeled and the results are compared with the active faults and seismicity pattern is discussed. Moment tensor inversion in time domain is used to obtain the source mechanism of earthquakes. The results indicate that the mechanisms of main shocks and aftershocks are mainly reverse and are in agreement with the trend of tectonic forces as well as the mechanisms of other earthquakes. The epicentral distribution of aftershocks indicates two clusters. The spatial distributions of clusters are in agreement with the epicentral distribution of main shocks. The cluster around the first earthquake in EW cross section has a length 15-20 Km, while the cluster around the second and third has a length about 20-25 Km. The Hojedk earthquakes occurred along the northern extension of previous earthquakes where a kind of seismic gap could be observed and still exists. In 1972, within five days four earthquakes with magnitudes 5.5 to 6.2 occurred in Sefidabeh region in eastern edge of Lut block. -

Moreover, the corresponding cross-thrusts were also associated with at least five clusters of medium-magnitude earthquakes. The Lakar Kuh fault with ~160 km length run parallel to the Nayband fault (Figure 1). The slip-rate of faults and also the spatio-temporal distribution of large-magnitude shallow-depth earthquakes on the Kuhbanan-Lakar Kuh fault system, attain broad concern for seismic hazard assessment (Figure 1). The horizontal slip-rate of the Kuhbanan fault is estimated ~1–2 mm/yr (Walker et al., 2012). Furthermore, the total horizontal displacement of the fault is reported ~5–7 km, as determined by the offset geological markers (Table 2). Table 1. -
