Disaster Mitigation Engineering -the Kobe Earthquake Disaster
The concept of plate tectonics is generally accepted in earth science and seismology. The surface of the earth is divided into rigid tectonic plates that move on the earth surface at extremely slow speed. The islands of Japan sit on the North American and Eurasian plates. The Pacific plate moves westward and the Philippines plate moves to northwest direction; both plates sink under the islands ...
متن کاملTowards an Integrated Earthquake Disaster Simulation System
This paper introduces the overall structure of an integrated earthquake disaster simulation system which is being developed under five year Special Project for Earthquake Disaster Mitigation in Urban Areas supported by the MEXT of Japan. This project aims to connect in a unity more than a dozen of simulators for individual natural phenomena and human activities involved in a big urban earthquak...
متن کاملScaling of seismic memory with earthquake size.
It has been observed that discrete earthquake events possess memory, i.e., that events occurring in a particular location are dependent on the history of that location. We conduct an analysis to see whether continuous real-time data also display a similar memory and, if so, whether such autocorrelations depend on the size of earthquakes within close spatiotemporal proximity. We analyze the seis...
متن کاملSeismic CAT-Scan of an Ancient Earthquake
Two-dimensional and three-dimensional seismic surveys were conducted across the Oquirrh fault, Utah with the purpose of imaging the fault structure to a depth of about 15 m. Results show that the 3-D tomogram clearly delineates the fault zone and a colluvial wedge, both of which correlate extremely well with the geologic cross-section interpreted from an adjacent trench. The thickness of the co...
متن کاملEarthquake Disaster Simulation in Immersive 3D Environment
Human response to any adverse situation can be greatly enhanced through training and mind-body experience. Earthquake is one such phenomenon where human response to minimise injuries/deaths is constrained due to disorientation of the victims. People in regions with frequent earthquakes often exhibit better response due to past experience. Training of the mind and body can also be achieved in a ...
