Simulation of Strong Motion at Kashiwazaki During the 2007 Niigataken Chuetsu-Oki, Japan, Earthquake

Abstract eng:
In this study, we evaluated the strong motion on engineering bedrock at a K-NET station NIG018, based on the Empirical Green’s function method. For verifying the results, we calculated the response wave on surface using a dynamic effective stress method, and compared the synthetic seismic waves with the observed ones. The results show that the synthetic waves matches the observed ones well in response spectra, implicating that the amplitude of the synthetic wave on the engineering bedrock are adequate, with a PGA of about 823 cm/s2 and a PGV of 103 cm/s.
