IODP for Geohazard Mitigation
IODP for Geohazard mitigation: Estimation of rupture area and fault models for historical and pre-historical earthquakes by using submarine event deposit detected from ocean drilling survey Masanobu Shishikura and Yuichi Namegaya Geological Survey of Japan, AIST, 305-8576 Tsukuba, Japan (Corresponding: [email protected]) Abstract Constructing precise fault model of historical and pre-historical subduction zone earthquakes is important for evaluation and mitigation of seismic and tsunami hazards. Because parameters for constraining the model of further past events essentially lack due to limited records, it is necessary to obtain paleoseismological data by offshore piston coring and drilling. Detecting and identifying event deposit such as seismic turbidite, rupture extent can be constrained along the subduction zone. 1. Introduction Fault model is a foundation to evaluate future seismic phenomena such as strong ground motion, crustal movement, tsunami inundation and so on. To estimate fault models of historical or pre-historical earthquakes, we usually try to know their precise rupture area. Since there are no instrumental observation data for estimating them, it must be identified of the magnitude and distribution of crustal movement and tsunami by analyzing historical records and geomorphological and geological traces. In other words, these evidences are unique indicator, and can provide good parameters to estimate rupture area of such earthquakes. If the rupture area is located on coastal region, it is relatively easy to recognize crustal movement from relative sea level change (abrupt uplift and subsidence) that has been recorded in such as marine terrace. However, most of the rupture area of interplate earthquake along subduction zone is located off coast. -

The 9Th International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction June 3-5,1992 Tokyo, Japan
The 9th International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction June 3-5,1992 Tokyo, Japan Direction-Controlled Lifting System Masahiro Nishimura Construction Technology Development Department Taisei Corporation 3-25-1 Hyakunin-cho, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, Japan Shigeyuki Yamashita Engineering Department TOKIMEC Engineering Inc 2-16-46 Minami-Kamata, Ota-ku Tokyo Japan Norimitsu Yoshihama Yokohama Landmark Tower Building Project Site Office, Yokohama Branch, Taisei Corporation 3-2-1 Minatomirai, Nishi-ku, Yokohama, Japan ABSTRACT In the construction of a high-rise building, structural members can be turned by the wind during lifting, making installation work more difficult and reducing productivity. This paper describes a system for the control of rotation around the vertical axis during the lifting of members. The system consists of three major units; a sensing unit, an operation unit, and an actuating unit. The operation unit incorporates a rate gyro, which keeps track of the lifted members in initial direction. It controls the actuating unit, which consists of a pair of blowers that stabilize orientation during lifting. Although this system contributes greatly to safety and work efficiency when used alone, it will also be an extremely useful sub-system in the future total automation of construction. 1. INTRODUCTION In the construction of a super-high-rise building, it is generally the case that the more stories to be constructed, the greater the number of working days lost due to inclement weather. The major causes of this loss are rainfall and strong winds. While some days on which work must be halted occur even in the construction of lower stories regardless of the height, days lost to strong winds occur more frequently as the working height increases. -
Foto Di Tokyo
FOTO DI TOKYO "Shinjuku": il quartiere perla... Il quartiere più moderno e appariscente della megalopoli giapponese, adagiato nella parte occidentale della città, che trasuda vita e dinamicità da tutti i suoi cementosi pori, ricchissimo di grattacieli, luci a non finire, negozi, sale giochi e chi più ne ha, più ne metta... Shinjuku ovest (Nishi-Shinjuku) è dominato dall'imperioso "Tange Kenzo Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building" con le sue due robuste torri gemelle incorporate nel medesimo edificio. In Shinjuku ovest spiccano numerosi grattacieli, fra essi i più importanti (oltre a quello appena citato) sono: il "Dai-Ichi Seimei Building", il "Sumitomo Building", il "Mitsui Building", l'"Island Tower", il "Shinjuku Center Building", il "Sompo Japan Building" e il "Nomura Building". Shinjuku est invece è più densamente popolato, con insegne al neon, shopping, vita notturna e frenesia metropolitana. Nelle prime foto si vedono (da sinistra verso destra) il "Mitsui" e il "Sumitomo"; nelle altre tre foto si vede il "Tange Kenzo" da diversi punti di inquadratura (tutte foto riferite a Shinjuku ovest). Shinjuku ovest. "Shinjuku Chuo Park" e visuale dei grattacieli attorno (nella seconda e terza foto). Nella quarta foto, partendo rispettivamente da sinistra verso destra, si vedono i seguenti grattacieli: il "Sumitomo Building", il "Mitsui Building", il "Nomura Building" (un po' nascosto sul fondo) e il "Shinjuku Center Building".

Numerical Tsunami Propagation of 1703 Kanto Earthquake
Numerical Tsunami Propagation of 1703 Kanto Earthquake Wu Yifei Supervisor: Kenji Satake Introduction Near Tokyo Bay, the 1703 Genroku Kanto Earthquake is known to generate a tsunami which hit the nearby coast. Considering the strength of the earthquake and the fault is quite close to Tokyo, we use numerical method to simulate the tsunami generated by the 1703 Genroku Kanto earthquake and see if there are any hazards when such a tsunami recurs. In our procedure, we first obtain ground deformation by Okada’s [1] program and then use the deformation as an initial condition to calculate the tsunami propagation. Properties of reverse fault Like the case of 1703 Genroku Kanto Earthquake, most big tsunamis that affect human being are caused by reverse fault. So we first examine the basic properties of reverse fault. Fig 1 and Fig 2 shows cross-section and map view Figure 1 Cross-section of deformation caused by reverse fault (W=15km, Slip=5m, Depth=0m) with different dips. Black line indicates the fault. The deformation is calculated by Okada’s program. Of the deformation caused by several reverse faults. Since in our procedure we consider vertical deformation as the cause of tsunami, we will just focus on that, or Uz. The most important thing we can gain is that for those reverse faults with dip not very large, we can observe uplift and subsidence. That makes the initial condition for tsunami propagation. Figure 2 Map view of the deformation caused by a reverse fault (L=85km W=55km Depth=5km Dip=30° Slip=6.7m) Yellow rectangle is the fault whose hanging wall is moving upward in the figure. -

Brimblecombe and Hayashi Herit Sci (2018) 6:27 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40494-018-0186-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Pressures from long term environmental change at the shrines and temples of Nikkō Peter Brimblecombe1* and Mikiko Hayashi1,2 Abstract Background: Important historic buildings at Nikkō are designated National Treasures of Japan or important cultural properties and illustrate notable architectural styles. We examine the records of damaging events and environmental change to estimate that changing balance of threats to guiding strategic planning and protection of the buildings and associated intangible heritage. Methods: Historic records from Nikkō allow past damage to be assessed along with projections of likely future threats. Simple non parametric statistics, Lorenz curves and its associated Gini coefcient aids interpretation of observations. Results: Earthquakes have long represented a threat, but mostly to fxed stone structures. Flooding may be as grow- ing problem, but historically river management has improved. Increasing warmth may mean an increase in the threat of fungal attack. However, insect attack on wood has been a particular problem as recent years have seen damage by wood boring insects, particularly at Sanbutsudō in the temple complex of Rinnō-ji. Although warmer climates may enhance the abundance of insects such as P. cylindricum the life cycle of this rare anobiid is not well understood. The risk of forest fres tends to be higher in drought period, but summer rainfall may well increase at Nikkō. Additionally good forestry practice can reduce this risk. Future changes to climate are likely to alter the fowering dates and the arrival of autumn colours. -
