26 4 27 SEISMIC AND TSUNAMI SCENARIOS FOR NORTHERN CHILE.

27 HAZARD SCENARIOS Hazard scenarios are the results of CIGIDEN L1, L2 and L3 research on seismic scenarios, earthquake propagation and tsunami modelling. Test Scenario: April 1st 214 Pisagua Earthquake (Mw 8.2). PGA maps generated on the basis of: Information on earthquake magnitude and hypocenter location (e.g. USGS, CSN). Attenuation laws for subduction earthquakes (e.g. Abrahamson et al. 215, Zhao et al. 26). Soil type and Vs3 maps by CIGIDEN. Tsunami inundation maps from numerical modelling. PGA (%g)

28 HAZARD SCENARIOS Predictive seismic scenarios: Estimation of seismic coupling based on trench parallel gravity anomaly and (TPGA) and geodesic interseismic coupling (ISC). Areas of maximum coupling are identified as asperities. 1 possible scenarios are defined considering simultaneous rupture of 1, 2 or 3 asperities. CIGIDEN, L1. González et al. (in prep). 29 Scenario Max. Slip (m) Mw

29 HAZARD SCENARIOS Predictive seismic scenarios: Worst-case scenario: full rupture from south of Perú to Mejillones, causing a Mw=8.95 earthquake. Consequential tsunami expected to cause inundation heights up to ~1 m in Iquique. Rapid inundation of port facilities and coastline. CIGIDEN, L2. CIGIDEN, L1. González et al. (in prep). 3

30 5 31 FRAGILITY AND VULNERABILITY.

31 Fragility of Structural & Non-structural Components. Ongoing research in Structural Engineering to define fragility curves and damage functions for Chilean building types & infrastructure. Characterization of Reinforced Concrete (RC) houses. (M. Haindl, MSc. Thesis) Characterization of RC Bridges. (A. Martínez, MSc. Thesis) 32

32 Fragility of Earth Structures. Ongoing research in to define fragility curves for earth structures and estimate landslide and liquefaction susceptibility. Fragility Curves for slopes 1 d= d= d= d= Idealized Sliding Mass Model P(D>d ky,ts ) cm 1 cm 1 cm 3 cm IM = Sa(1.5Ts) 2

33 Social Vulnerability. Characterization of social vulnerability to natural disasters based on demographic and socioeconomic data. Social Vulnerability Index to Natural Disasters for Iquique/Alto Hospicio and Santiago, based on census data (Vásquez & Kronmüller, 214) 34 (Armas & Gravis, 24)

34 6 35 CURRENT RESULTS & FUTURE WORK.

35 TEST SCENARIO: APRIL 1ST 214 EARTHQUAKE HAZUS analysis based on detailed inventory at block level, user-supplied seismic scenario and default damage function results in overestimates of building damage, compared to observations. Total Building Count Building Type C2H C2L C2M C3L MH PC1 PC2H RM1L RM1M S2L S3 S5H URMM W1 W2 Total Damage Cadastre 36 None Slight Moderate Extensive Complete Ongoing analysis to reconcile observed and simulated damage to buildings. Revision of attenuation laws and PGA maps. Which is the most correct? Revision of fragility curves and building type classification.

36 FUTURE WORK. 37 Complete inventory for Alto Hospicio. Analysis of damages and losses for predictive scenarios. Multi-hazard approach: earthquake + subsequent tsunami, landslides. Definition and generation of useful and efficient information tools for local stakeholders and disaster management organisms (e.g. ONEMI, Municipality). Integration of CIGIDEN research regarding: Fragility curves and damage functions. Network (health, roads, utilities) vulnerability and performance. Simulation of technical (e.g. seismic protection) and socio-politic (e.g. land use change, city planning recommendations) mitigation measures. Knowledge transfer to public entities responsible for disaster management, and society. Definition of futures implementations or scaling ant different regional levels.
