Dynamic Settlement

The dynamic analysis process started after any loss of embankment with associated huge damages like cracks during the earthquake. Literature review indicated that the maximum displacement during the earthquake is conducted to the crest and interface between the embankment with water reservoir, and foundations were cased. This paper evaluated the effect of material properties of the foundation for the two conditions so the result is related at the end of construction with supplying water. Numerical analyses of models were performed by finite element with plane strain method and ANSYS13 software. Earthquake recording as Nagan with 5.02 seconds and peak ground acceleration equal to PGA=0.65 is used. Results indicated that with a comparison of horizontal and vertical displacement, shear strain and shear stress so nonisotropic behavior of embankment especially in the up to part of the structure was obvious. It is required to consider an improvement of dynamic settlement with reinforcement structure in the future.

Comparison Results

The dynamic analysis process was started after failure in some embankments during an earthquake. In this context, maximum displacement was reported at the crest based on interaction between structure and reservoir. This paper investigates the dynamic behavior of short embankment on soft soil. For this purpose, numerical analysis was carried out using ANSYS13 program based on finite-element method. Simulated models were vibrated by strong earthquake, so the peak ground acceleration (PGA) and duration were 0.65 g and 5.02 seconds, respectively. The comparison results were discussed in key points of plane strain analysis based on modulus ratio between saturated embankment and foundation. As concluded, the modulus ratio between 0.53 and 0.66 led to having a minimum value of horizontal displacement, relative displacement in vertical direction, and shear stress. Consequently, the shear stress was increased while the modulus ratio was decreased. Finally, to avoid more rigidity in the embankment on the soft soil, optimum modulus ratio was recommended at 0.66 in order to reduce the probabilistic of body cracks at the crest with respect to homogeneous behavior during an earthquake.

Papua Barat

Sorong merupakan salah satu kota yang terletak di Provinsi Papua Barat. Daerah ini memiliki tingkat kerentanan yang tinggi terhadap ancaman bahaya gempa bumi karena lokasinya terletak di antara pertemuan lempengan tektonik dan beberapa sesar aktif. Tingkat kerawanan terhadap gempa pada daerah ini cukup tinggi. Pada September 2016, BMKG mencatat bahwa terjadi gempa bumi dengan skala magnitudo sebesar 6,8 SR (Skala Ritcher) dengan kedalaman 10 meter dari permukaan laut dan berjarak 31 km arah timur laut kota Sorong. Gempa ini bersifat merusak. Akibat gempa ini, sebanyak 62 orang terluka dan 257 rumah rusak. Untuk itu diperlukan suatu analisis terhadap percepatan tanah puncak (Peak Ground Acceleration) terbaru sebagai langkah mitigasi yang nantinya dapat digunakan untuk perencanaan gedung tahan gempa.Pengumpulan data gempa pada peneltian ini yaitu data gempa yang terjadi sekitar kota Sorong pada rentang waktu 1900-2017. Data gempa yang diambil adalah yang berpotensi merusak struktur yaitu dengan magnitudo (Mw) ≥ 5 dengan radius gempa 500 km dari kota Sorong dan memiliki kedalaman antara 0 - 300 km. Setelah diperoleh data gempa maka dibuat peta sebaran gempa di wilayah kota Sorong. Percepatan tanah puncak dihitung berdasarkan fungsi atenuasi matuscha (1980) dan menggunakan pendekatan metode Gumbel.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai percepatan tanah puncak (PGA) di wilayah kota Sorong pada periode ulang 2500 tahun atau menggunakan probabilitas terlampaui 2% dalam 50 tahun umur rencana bangunan diperoleh sebesar 708.9520 cm/dt2 atau 0.7227 g. Apabila melihat peta gempa SNI 1726-2012 yang menggunakan probabilitas yang sama maka nilai percepatan tanah puncak (PGA) ketika gempa bumi berkisar antara 0.4 g - 0.6 g. Nilai ini mengalami peningkatan yang berarti tingkat resiko terhadap gempa bumi pada wilayah kota Sorong meningkat.

We describe an approach to model liquefaction extent that focuses on identifying broadly available geospatial variables (e.g., derived from digital elevation models) and earthquake-specific parameters (e.g., peak ground acceleration, PGA). A key step is database development: We focus on the 1995 Kobe and 2010–2011 Christchurch earthquakes because the presence/absence of liquefaction has been mapped so that the database is unbiased with respect to the areal extent of liquefaction. We derive two liquefaction models with explanatory variables that include PGA, shear-wave velocity, compound topographic index, and a newly defined normalized distance parameter (distance to coast divided by the sum of distance to coast and distance to the basin inland edge). To check the portability/reliability of these models, we apply them to the 2010 Haiti earthquake. We conclude that these models provide first-order approximations of the extent of liquefaction, appropriate for use in rapid response, loss estimation, and simulations.

Maluku Utara merupakan salah satu provinsi di Indonesia yang tercatat sebagai wilayah yang sering terjadi gempa karena terletak di pertemuan Lempeng Eurasia, Lempeng Pasifik, Lempeng Mikro Halmahera, dan Lempeng Oceanic Laut Maluku. Selain itu Maluku Utara juga tercatat sebagai penyumbang besar Penerimaan Negara Bukan Pajak (PNBP) di sektor pertambangan. Pemetaan zona resiko bencana gempabumi berdasarkan intensitas keaktifan gempa dapat digunakan sebagai inovasi teknologi guna mengetahui spesifikasi daerah yang memiliki resiko tinggi karena dalam penganalisisan ini memperhitungkan percepatan getaran tanah maksimum akibat gempa bumi yang diperoleh berdasarkan data gempabumi yang terjadi pada kurun waktu 2000-2020 dengan memperhatikan besarnya Magnitudo dan jarak Hiposenternya. Hasil penganalisisan Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) ditampilkan dalam bentuk peta dan juga ditumpang susunkan dengan peta wilayah izin usaha tambang yang dikeluarkan oleh Kementrian Energi dan Sumberdaya Mineral (ESDM) sehingga hasil akhir diperoleh zona wilayah izin tamabang berdasarkan tingkat resiko bahaya gempabumi.

The development of the new seismic hazard map of Iran is based on probabilistic seismic hazard computation using the historical earthquakes data, geology, tectonics, fault activity and seismic source models in Iran. These maps have been prepared to indicate the earthquake hazard of Iran in the form of iso-acceleration contour lines, and seismic hazard zoning, by using current probabilistic procedures. They display the probabilistic estimates of Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) for the return periods of 75 and 475 years. The maps have been divided into intervals of 0.25 degrees in both latitudinal and longitudinal directions to calculate the peak ground acceleration values at each grid point and draw the seismic hazard curves. The results presented in this study will provide the basis for the preparation of seismic risk maps, the estimation of earthquake insurance premiums, and the preliminary site evaluation of critical facilities.

History Analysis

The Newmark seismic time-history analysis method can take into account the effects of natural seismic peak ground acceleration (PGA), duration, and seismic frequency; seismic wave can be input into the method for simulation. This study calculates the dynamic response of the typical seabed slope of Caofeidian in the event of a similar Tangshan earthquake, and the displacement value can be used to quantitatively reflect the influence of the earthquake on the slope of the site. The allowable displacement value of the top of buildings or submarine slope can be used as a marker of security and stability analysis, which can further provide important reference for similar slope stability evaluation and offshore engineering construction.
