Abstract:
|
The MS810 Wenchuan earthquake in Sichuan caused heavy casualties and serious economic loss because of damage to engineering structures in high earthquake intensity regions. Earthquake intensity , especially in the near source region , as a macroscopic description of distribution of strong ground motions certain correlations with the earthquake source process , such as rupture directivity and the hanging2wall effect of the near2fault ground motions of this earthquake. In this article some qualitative analyses are carried out. The conclusion of this study may be useful for emergence response and rescue after earthquakes , when the strong ground motion recordings and the intensity distribution are not available immediately. |
