4 How to establish relationships for regions with few or without strong ground motion records? 4

5 In China, strong ground motion records are not enough now. Mapping method (Hu, 1980s): This method assumes that, for region A of enough acceleration observation data and a region B of few such data, earthquake pairs (M A, R A ; M B, R B ) exist in the intensity attenuation curves I A (M A, R A ) of region A and I B (M B, R B ) of region B, so that they give the same intensity I and ground motion Y. 5

6 Western US: I = M R.014 log( R + 10), σ = 0.74, R < 300 km 0.451M log( PGA) = M 1.73log[ R e ], σ = 0.40 Eastern China: I I a b = M = M lg( R + 4), lg( R + 9) σ = Western China: I a = M lg( R + 6), I b = M.943lg( R + 8) σ = 0.63 Eastern China: log( PGA) log( PGA ) Western China: a b = M 1.90 log[ R + = M log[ R e 0.381e log( PGA ) a = M log[ R +.018e log( PGA ) b = M log[ R e 0.45M 0.55M M 0.51 M ], ] ], ] σ = σ =

7 It is easier to obtain observed data in small earthquakes. More and more digital seismic stations are b ilt up. built China Earthquake Data Center 7

8 Methodology Source Fourier spectrum of ground motion FA(M 0, f, R) from a point source can be described as FA( ( M f, R ) = C S ( M, f ) G ( R ) D ( R, f ) A ( f ) P ( f ) I ( f ) 0, 0 where, C is proportion factor; S(M 0, f) is source spectrum for a specified seismic moment; G(R) ( ) is geometric spreading function; D(R, (, f) ) is anelastic attenuation function; A(f) is the amplification factor of near surface amplitude; P(f) is a high-cut filter that rapidly reduces amplitudes at high frequencies; I(f) is spectrum shape parameter, used to shape the spectrum to correspond to the particular ground-motion measure of interest. 8

14 Inversion strategy μga is developed from GA, the main procedure is similar. In μga, there still retain selection and crossover, but no variation, at the same time, it retains the optimal individual. Objective function Fitness φ j = [ FA0 ( m, n ) FA j ( m, n )] F j = m e n βφ j 14

16 Time-domain simulation Combined with random phase spectra, the Fourier spectra can be transformed into the time domain. In time-domain i simulations, these time series are windowed d by f ( t ) = ( t ) t 1, 0 t t 1 1.0, t1 < t t c ( t t ) e, t < t where, t 1 and t are the starting point and finishing point of the stable section, c is the attenuation rate. ß An envelop curve on bedrock (Huo and Hu, 1991) is adopted. lg t1 = lg( R + 10) lgt = M w lg( R + 10) lg c = M w lg( R + 10) 16

17 The windowed time histories are transformed into the frequency domain. Complex spectra are transformed back to the time domain. Attenuation curves, which show mean levels, can be constructed after mean PGAs from 50 different random phase spectra are calculated. 17

27 Conclusions In the demonstration region of this project, five regional parameters are inversed from small earthquakes by μga. Strong ground motion attenuation relationship is constructed from small earthquake records by China Earthquake Network. The relation is expressed as a D table and is adopted in PSHA. The seismic zoning map of the demonstration is compared with the national map to prove the validation. 7
