of in Sizuoka Prefecture， about a hundred the rnost beautiful spots in the country， kilometers west of Tokyo． It takes two with beautiful Mt． Fuji in the background hours by express train and two and half of the city． The countryside is known for hours by local trains from Tokyo Station various kinds of vegetables of good quality， to Misima Station， and ten minutes by car and for the abundance of dairy products． from Misima Station to the Institute． The campus of the Institute is part of a Misima in feudal days was famous as a slnall foothill on the western slope of the post town at the entrance to the Hakone Hakone Range． It has an area of 811 passage on the T6kaidδHighway． Nowa－ ares；350 ares are covered by buildings， days it is noted for the springs and brooks 161ares are occupied

  • Response and Earthquake Induced Damage of Underground Structures in Rock Mass
    Response and Earthquake Induced Damage of Underground Structures in Rock Mass Ömer Aydan* Yoshimi Ohta* Melih Geni** Naohiko Tokashiki*** K. Ohkubo**** *Tokai University, Department of Marine Civil Eng., Shizuoka, Japan Email: [email protected] **Zonguldak Karaelmas University, Mining Engineering Dept., Zonguldak, Turkey ***Ryukyu University, Civil Engineering Dept., Okinawa, Japan ****Nakanihon Expressway Company, Tokyo, Japan ABSTRACT Underground structures are generally known as earthquake-resistant structures as compared to surface structures. Nevertheless, the recent earthquakes showed that underground structures are also vulnerable to earthquakes. There may be several reasons for such damage such as high ground motions and permanent ground movements. This study attempts to describe various forms of damage to underground structures such as tunnels, caverns, natural caves and abandoned mines during major earthquakes. Results of various model tests on shaking table are also presented to show the effect of ground shaking on the response and collapse of underground structures in continuum and discontinuum. Furthermore, some empirical equations are proposed to assess the damage to underground structures, which may be useful for quick assessments of possible damage. Keywords: Underground opening; Earthquake damage; Fault; Shaking; Concrete lining 1. INTRODUCTION It is well known that the underground structures such as tunnels and powerhouses are generally resistant against earthquake-induced motions (Dowding and Rozen, 1978; Sharma & Judd, 1991). However, they may be damaged when permanent ground movements occur in/along the underground structures. There are several examples of damage to tunnels due to permanent ground movements during, for example, 1930 Tanna, 1978 Izu-Oshima-Kinkai, 1995 Kobe, 1999 Düzce-Bolu, 1999 Chi-chi, 2004 Chuetsu, 2005 Kashmir and 2008 Wenchuan earthquakes.

  • The Vitality and Resilience of Inherited Japanese Houses －100 Years of Shimizu-Gumi Houses－
    The Vitality and Resilience of Inherited Japanese Houses －100 Years of Shimizu-gumi Houses－ Preface Since its foundation in 1804, residential architecture had been one of the primary business focuses for Shimizu-gumi, the present Shimizu Corporation. Many books have been published to showcase its works, such as Sekkei zushū, jūtaku no maki, ji 1907 nen shi 1923 nen (Drawing collection: house, from 1907 to 1923) and Sekkei zushū, shitsunai narabini kagu dentō no maki, ji 1909 nen shi 1913 nen (Drawing collection: interior, furniture and lighting, from 1909 to 1913). These books feature painted drawings of large houses, which could be considered mansions in the Western sense, designed and built by Shimizu-gumi, and include plans, elevations, development plans, and illustrations of furniture. The books enable the reader to visualize many aspects of mansions in the Meiji era (1868-1912) and Taisho era (1912-1926,) and to understand how these mansions were significant as elements of urban culture. Additionally, an academic work based on these earlier texts was published to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Housing Research Foundation JUSOKEN: Meiji/Taisho no teitaku, Shimizu-gumi sakusei saishiki-zu no sekai (Mansions in Meiji and Taisho, the world of colored drawings created by Shimizu-gumi, Kashiwashobo, 2009, currently unavailable). This book is the product of joint research by “Shimizu Kensetsu Teitaku Shiryō Kenkyūkai” (Shimizu Corporation Mansion Document Study Group, 2004 to 2009) in the “Jūtaku Shiryō Iinkai” (Committee for historical materials about houses) of Jusoken. For the next phase of study, surveys and research on Jūtaku kenchiku zushū (Residential architecture catalog, 1st volume: 1935, 2nd volume: 1939) should be conducted.

  • Ground Magnetic Anomalies in the Tanna Fault and Their Implications
    J. Geomag. Geoelectr., 43, 741-754, 1991 Ground Magnetic Anomalies in the Tanna Fault and Their Implications Yasukuni OKUBO, Keiko MIZUGAKI, and Hiroshi KANAYA Geological Survey of Japan, Tsukuba 305, Japan (Received April 9, 1991; Revised June 10, 1991) The Tanna fault is a left lateral fault extending in the middle of the Izu Peninsula. We carried out a detailed ground magnetic survey at a grid spacing of 50 to 150 m along the Tanna fault and constructed a magnetic model based on the ground survey with the help of drilling data in the Tanna basin and measurement of rock magnetism. Total intensity distribution obtained by the ground magnetic survey represents a distinguished contrast forming relative magnetic highs in the west to the fault and lows in the east. The Tanna fault is a remarkable border terminating magnetic highs. Drillings revealed that formations filling the Tanna basin are mainly the middle Pleistocene Taga volcanics which possess high susceptibility as a whole. A recent work suggests that the Taga volcanics were produced in normal polarity and had strong remanent magnetization. Therefore, remanent magnetization is inferred to be dominant in the total magnetization. The magnetic contrast forms almost a north-south trend throughout the study area. The magnetic modeling using E-W profiles delineated strong normally magnetized sources of 6 A/ m confined to the west to the fault. Three drillings indicated that the east formations to the fault were wholly disintegrated and the west formations, by contrast, included fresh lavas. These evidences suggest that the major cause of magnetic contrast is not the difference of geologic unit but instead the weakened remanent magnetization in the east adjacent area to the fault.

  • Memorial to Hisashi Kuno 1910-1969
    MEMORIAL TO HISASHI KUNO 1910-1969 HELEN L. FOSTER U. S. Geological Survey, Menlo Park, California Professor Hisashi Kuno, an Honorary Fellow of The Geological Society of America since 1958, died of cancer in Tokyo, Japan, on August 6, 1969. The loss of Dr. Kuno is keenly felt in scientific circles throughout the world where he had become known as a leader and original thinker. No discussion of pyroxenes, basalts, andesites, or upper mantle problems was complete without Professor Kuno or ref­ erence to his work. Hisashi Kuno was born in central Tokyo, the Kanda district, on January 7, 1910, the eldest child of Kamenosuke and Tome Kuno. His father was an artist specializing in Japanese painting. Kuno commenced his education in the Negishi Primary School in Tokyo and in Tokyo Metropolitan 5th Junior High School. He then attended the Second High School in Sendai, a school noted for starting many outstanding Japanese geologists on their careers. Here, young Kuno preferred skiing and mountain climbing to study but, nevertheless, became sufficiently interested in geology to choose it as his life work. Several of his fellow students also became noted geologists, and as is traditional in Japan, he and his classmates maintained a close comradeship throughout life. In later years, whenever possible, Kuno returned to a mountain hut on Mt. Zao west of Sendai for climbing, skiing, and reminiscing with his school friends. In 1929 Kuno entered Tokyo Imperial University (now University of Tokyo). Even though the Geological Institute at Tokyo Imperial University had long been staffed with outstanding foreign and Japanese geologists, this was a particularly stimulating period in Japanese science and geology.

  • History of Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering in Japan
    th The 14 World Conference on Earthquake Engineering October 12-17, 2008, Beijing, China HISTORY OF GEOTECHNICAL EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING IN JAPAN 1 I. Towhata 1 Professor, Dept. of Civil Engineering , University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT : Japan is vulnerable to earthquakes and has historically experienced many kinds of seismic damages. The modern earthquake engineering was initiated by introduction of the seismic coefficient method. It was applied to geotechnical engineering as the Mononobe-Okabe dynamic earth pressure theory in 1920s. The 1923 Kanto earthquake supplied a valuable knowledge on the effects of local soil conditions on the damage extent. Liquefaction attracted the first engineering concern after the 1964 Niigata earthquake. Since then, the points of concern have varied from its causative mechanism and assessment of liquefaction risk through preventive measure to consequence of liquefaction and its prediction in the context of performance-based design principle. Moreover, many technologies have developed to mitigate the liquefaction risk. In addition to reinforcing structures as has been conventionally done, the development of lifelines since 1980s resulted in real-time earthquake engineering. Thus, there are many ideas and evolution of geotechnical earthquake engineering in Japan which is frequently attacked by earthquakes and is actually a natural laboratory of earthquake engineering.
