Повний текст джерелаSeismic mapping indicates that Lasuen Knoll offshore southern California is a pop-up structure in a restraining stepover of the Palos Verdes Fault. Dextral shear is apparently transferred southeast through a complex of faults in a linked shear zone to the Carlsbad Ridge and Coronado Bank faults.
Isochore maps of stratigraphic intervals indicate that Miocene extension occurred locally along the Palos Verdes Fault to the south of Lasuen Knoll during the Mohnian stage, and became more widespread during the Delmontian stage. Fanning of dips of Repettian stage strata onlapping Lasuen Knoll indicate that Lasuen Knoll began to form as a pop-up structure by the Early Repettian stage and has continued to uplift to Recent.
Lasuen Knoll is bounded to the north and south along the Palos Verdes-Carlsbad Ridge-Coronado Bank shear zone by transtensional zones. Tectonic models suggest that Lasuen Knoll forms a characteristic California Inner Borderland restraining bend or stepover.

Повний текст джерелаCalugaru, Vladimir. "Earthquake Resilient Tall Reinforced Concrete Buildings at Near-Fault Sites Using Base Isolation and Rocking Core Walls." Thesis, University of California, Berkeley, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3616424.
Повний текст джерелаThis dissertation pursues three main objectives: (1) to investigate the seismic response of tall reinforced concrete core wall buildings, designed following current building codes, subjected to pulse type near-fault ground motion, with special focus on the relation between the characteristics of the ground motion and the higher-modes of response; (2) to determine the characteristics of a base isolation system that results in nominally elastic response of the superstructure of a tall reinforced concrete core wall building at the maximum considered earthquake level of shaking; and (3) to demonstrate that the seismic performance, cost, and constructability of a base-isolated tall reinforced concrete core wall building can be significantly improved by incorporating a rocking core-wall in the design.
First, this dissertation investigates the seismic response of tall cantilever wall buildings subjected to pulse type ground motion, with special focus on the relation between the characteristics of ground motion and the higher-modes of response. Buildings 10, 20, and 40 stories high were designed such that inelastic deformation was concentrated at a single flexural plastic hinge at their base. Using nonlinear response history analysis, the buildings were subjected to near-fault seismic ground motions as well as simple close-form pulses, which represented distinct pulses within the ground motions. Euler-Bernoulli beam models with lumped mass and lumped plasticity were used to model the buildings.
Next, this dissertation investigates numerically the seismic response of six seismically base-isolated (BI) 20-story reinforced concrete buildings and compares their response to that of a fixed-base (FB) building with a similar structural system above ground. Located in Berkeley, California, 2 km from the Hayward fault, the buildings are designed with a core wall that provides most of the lateral force resistance above ground. For the BI buildings, the following are investigated: two isolation systems (both implemented below a three-story basement), isolation periods equal to 4, 5, and 6 s, and two levels of flexural strength of the wall. The first isolation system combines tension-resistant friction pendulum bearings and nonlinear fluid viscous dampers (NFVDs); the second combines low-friction tension-resistant cross-linear bearings, lead-rubber bearings, and NFVDs.
Finally, this dissertation investigates the seismic response of four 20-story buildings hypothetically located in the San Francisco Bay Area, 0.5 km from the San Andreas fault. One of the four studied buildings is fixed-base (FB), two are base-isolated (BI), and one uses a combination of base isolation and a rocking core wall (BIRW). Above the ground level, a reinforced concrete core wall provides the majority of the lateral force resistance in all four buildings. The FB and BI buildings satisfy requirements of ASCE 7-10. The BI and BIRW buildings use the same isolation system, which combines tension-resistant friction pendulum bearings and nonlinear fluid viscous dampers. The rocking core-wall includes post-tensioning steel, buckling-restrained devices, and at its base is encased in a steel shell to maximize confinement of the concrete core. The total amount of longitudinal steel in the wall of the BIRW building is 0.71 to 0.87 times that used in the BI buildings. Response history two-dimensional analysis is performed, including the vertical components of excitation, for a set of ground motions scaled to the design earthquake and to the maximum considered earthquake (MCE). While the FB building at MCE level of shaking develops inelastic deformations and shear stresses in the wall that may correspond to irreparable damage, the BI and the BIRW buildings experience nominally elastic response of the wall, with floor accelerations and shear forces which are 0.36 to 0.55 times those experienced by the FB building. The response of the four buildings to two historical and two simulated near-fault ground motions is also studied, demonstrating that the BIRW building has the largest deformation capacity at the onset of structural damage.

Повний текст джерелаWe observe since 2005 a high seismic activity at 10 km from Ulaanbaatar that allowed us to identify a new active fault, Emeelt, in the field. After computing a 3D velocity model, I applied Double-Difference tomography to obtain a precise localization of earthquakes. They trace at least three parallel branches oriented N147° like the fault seen at surface. The seismic activity on the Main Emeelt Fault (MEF) is along at least 15 km, on the West and East branches, less active, along 10 km. The depth of the seismicity extends between 4 and 15 km. The activity seems concentrated at the intersection with Mesozoic faults and Vp/Vs contrast suggests the presence of fluids. The 10 swarms identified show an increasing activity and a spatial migration with time. The calculation of 2 possible scenarios, one M ~ 6.4 and one M ~ 7, shows an important impact on Ulaanbaatar, with a minimum intensity of VIII and IX for M=6.4 and X for M=7

Повний текст джерелаRecent studies based on surface observations from Sarpang area in southern-central Bhutan have estimated the Holocene slip rate of 20.8+/-8.8 mm/year. This value is based on a mean vertical uplift rate of 8.8+/-2.1 mm/year and assuming a constant frontal thrust dip angle of 25°+/-5° extrapolated from structural measurements. Since geometry of the fault is a key parameter for discerning the slip rate and its associated seismic hazard assessment, we employed near-surface geophysical approach to accurately constrain the Topographic Frontal Thrust (TFT) geometry at shallow depth. Based on proven effectiveness of near-surface geophysical techniques for studying active faults, we adopted gravity, seismic and electrical resistivity tomography.We deployed geophysical profiles at three key sites along the southern frontal areas of the Bhutan Himalayas. The first study area is in Sarpang, a small town located in southern-central Bhutan where we performed all three geophysical methods adopted. The second site is located in Phuentsholing in the south-western Bhutan, where we performed gravity and electrical resistivity survey. The third site is located between Sarpang and Phuentsholing, in the sub-district of Lhamoizingkha under Dagana district.A stochastic inversion approach was adopted to perform analysis of geophysical data collected from the above sites expect for Lhamoizingkha area. Unlike commonly used approaches based on search for the simplest model, the main advantages of this approach include its ability (1) to assess the fault geometry because no smoothing is applied, (2) to provide a measurement of the uncertainties on the obtained dip angle and (3) to allow trade-off analysis between geometric and either electrical resistivity, velocity or density properties.The stochastic inversion results from Sarpang site show a TFT that is characterized by a flat and listric-ramp geometry with a north dipping dip angle of ca 20°-30° at the upper depth of 0-5 m, steeply dipping angle of 70° in the middle 5-40 m depth and flattening with a dip angle of 20° at deeper depths. These new results allow us to estimate a minimum overthrusting slip rate of 10+/-2 mm/year on the TFT, which is about 60% of the far-field GPS convergence rate of ca 17 mm/year. Based on these constraints we propose that, in Sarpang site, significant deformation partitioning on different faults including the TFT, the Main Boundary Thrust (MBT) and the Frontal Back Thrust (FBT) cannot be ruled out. More importantly, assuming a constant slip rate, the dip angle variations constrained from the present study, corresponds to variations in the uplift rate with distance from the TFT. This, therefore, emphasizes the drawbacks in assuming constant dip angle measured from surface observations and uplift rate estimates based on terrace dating only at the front, which may significantly bias the slip rate estimation.Unlike in Sarpang, the TFT corresponds to the Main Frontal Thrust (MFT) in Phuentsholing. At this site a preliminary study suggests a MFT characterized by a flat and listric-ramp geometry. With additional terrace dating information, slip rate for the Phuentsholing area will be performed in a near future. Overall based on the stochastic inversion results, we propose a MFT geometry similar to that observed in Sarpang but with possible lateral variations in terms of deformation partitioning. In Lhamoizingkha area, the exact location of the MFT is not known. Our preliminary results suggest a complex fault trace and indicate that the MFT is located further north of the current resistivity line deployed in this area. Similar to Phuentsholing site (but contrary to Sarpang), we observed that the MFT is the most frontal structure and therefore most of the convergence in the area could be accommodated by the MFT, which is also in agreement with GPS observations

The concept of seismic isolation design is to elongate the period of structure in order to reduce the response of whole system. In 921 Chi-chi earthquake, however, it exists so called near-fault earthquake characteristics which enlarge the response of middle to long period structures and may induce exceeding expectations of earthquake load. By using SAP 2000 program, this thesis constructed a seismic isolation designed bridge model to study the near-fault earthquake’s influence on seismically isolated bridge. The model is checked its linear behavior from ambient vibration test and force vibration test and non-linear behavior from log of earthquake data by set-up sensors. After ascertaining the accuracy of model, it was performed to simulated different site acceleration history, and had the results that near-fault earthquake can make seismically isolated bridge to over-loading. On the other hand, the thesis discussed the effect of shear key and abutment. Additional dampers and other unseating device are simulated to suggest some method for seismically isolated bridge under near-fault earthquake.

Fault is one of the discontinuities geological structure. At different underground structure may have different site effect show within the seismic wave. The purpose of this research is to find the relationship between small scale fault slip to the variation of ambient noise in eastern Taiwan. There is two sections within this study. First section is to find the differences of the ambient noise at near and far fault stations. It shows that (1) 0-2 Hz noise effects mainly controlled by meteorological factors; (2) Site effect may obviously response to 5 Hz noise when local earthquake wave arrives at a small incident angle relative to the strike of the fault; (3) Noise of 2.5-4.5 Hz & 5.5-25 Hz is associated with anthropogenic activity, therefore, the noise dose not demonstrate the same characteristic pattern within the six stations. Second section is using HVSR method to analyze the impact of resonance frequency when fault slip direction changed. This section shows that (1) there is no relationship between the fault slip direction change to the resonance frequency under small time scale (in weeks); (2) To a larger time scale (more than two weeks), the resonance frequency at the station FULB would fluctuate immediately when the fault slip direction changed sudden after a long time stable period (1-3 months); (3) To a larger scale, the resonance frequency at the station ENLB would drop down when the fault slip direction changed continuously; (4) The effect of ambient noise only found at limited distance for displacement parallel to the fault.

Near-fault ground motions, which have caused much more damages than far-field earthquakes in recent major earthquakes, are characterized by a short-duration impulsive motion that exposes the structure to high input energy at the beginning of the record. A coupled wall structure consists of two or more structural walls linked by coupling beams. It is able to provide efficient lateral strength and stiffness, which effectively reduces the drift response of buildings under earthquakes. The current design method of coupled structural walls can only applied to the far-field earthquake. It does not consider the structural behavior under the near-fault earthquake. Based on the performance-based design method of coupled structural walls proposed by Wei-Ting Lu (2013), this study combines the design parameters of coupled structural walls under the near-fault earthquake and proposed lateral load patterns considering the near-fault effect, a near-fault performance-based design method is developed. In the study, twelve coupled structural walls are designed with two height, two coupling ratio and three design methods. Their computational models are also built and analyzed using nonlinear static procedure and nonlinear dynamic procedure. According to the analysis results, the coupled structural walls proposed in the study are able to exhibit satisfactory structural yielding mechanisms and present a good energy dissipation activity. Compare with other design methods mentioned in this study, the near-fault performance-based design methods can reduce the deformation of the structure effectively, and prevent the structural wall from a larger rotation in the high floor.

In 1999, the devastaking Chi-Chi earthquake occurred in Taiwan and in that event, many strong earthquakes were recorded by the central weather Bureau of Taiwan. Among them are many near-fault earthquake data with long period and high acceleration in characteristics . By choosing some of these near-fault earthquake data which are less than 6 kilometers form the fault, and by using the three pulse types (type A,B,C) proposed by Makris and decaying sinusoidal pulse type proposed by A.K.Agrawal , this study has done the following research works. First, constructed the elastic response spectra-displacement, pseudo velocity and pseudo acceleration- of the choosen time history. Second, derived the closed-form solutions of response of SDOF systems to the approximate aforementioned 4 types of pulses representing the corresponding earthquake data. The response spectra were also obtained for those 4 types of pulses. After comparing the researched results, the following conclusions can be made. The ground motions are more like pulses if the records are taken more close to the fault. The displacement response spectra obtained by the approximate pulse are in good agreement with those obtained by the real time history simulation. Therefore the theory proposed by Makris & A.K.Agrawal are proven to be applicable to the near-fault earthquakes.

The concept of seismic isolation design method has been accepted as an effective method for the seismic mitigation. However, to design a seismic isolation system against near-fault ground motions has been an important and challenging issue in seismic isolation design. In this study, it is an attempt to identify the effect of various characteristics of near-fault ground motion in affecting the seismic response of isolation system. These important characteristics may include but not limited to the velocity pulse, incremental velocity, peak ground velocity, pulse period, input energy, and momentary input energy. For so doing, 10 far-field ground motions and 30 near-fault ground motions provided by Jack. W. Baker identified based on the wavelet analysis are used for this analytical study. A simple bi-linear base isolation system is assumed and nonlinear response history analysis is conducted to identify the importance of the aforementioned characteristics of near-fault ground motions. The results indicate that peak ground velocity (PGV), incremental velocity, and momentary input energy may be the significant characteristics of near-fault ground motions in affecting the seismic response of isolation system. In addition, the duration of velocity pulse extracted from the original ground motion may also play an important role. However, further study is required to ascertain the importance of the residual ground velocity history after the velocity pulse extraction.

Near-fault ground motions containing velocity pulses have been considered to be more destructive than far-field ground motions to structures. In 2007, Jack.W. Baker proposed a method, based on wavelet analysis, to quantitatively identify velocity pulses of near-fault ground motions. In 2014, Shahi and Baker developed a more reliable method by optimizing some criteria to extract the largest velocity pulse from a given near-fault ground motion. The proposed algorithm was then used to classify each record in the NGA-West2 database and has identified a total of 244 near-fault ground motion records. These records have been used as the basis for the research on the effects of near-fault ground motions on civil infrastructures. Based on the concept of structural resonance, the velocity pulse period (Tp) of a near-fault ground motion deduced from wavelet analysis is recognized to possess a great damage potential to structures if the structural fundamental period is coincident with the velocity pulse period. However, in this study it has been found that the pulse periods identified by Shahi and Baker method for near-fault ground motions tend to be much longer than the fundamental period of usual practical civil engineering structures, e.g. the pulse period of TCU052EW of 1999 Taiwan Chi-Chi earthquake was identified to be approximately 12 seconds. This long period pulse may not be destructive to the usual civil infrastructures. As a consequence, the criteria proposed by Shahi and Baker was modified to extract different velocity pulses with different periods from a single near-fault ground motion so that the effect of velocity pulses can be examined more clearly. Two simple bi-linear hysteretic systems including a conventional earthquake-resistant structure and a base-isolated system are adopted for nonlinear response history analysis. Based on this study, it is found that a near-fault ground motion may contain a number of velocity pulses with different periods. Some velocity pulses show much larger damage potential than the one extracted based on Shahi and Baker’s criteria for the same near-fault ground motion. Therefore, it is suggested that the velocity pulses covered by a pulse period range should be used as a basis for exploring the damage potential of a near-fault ground motion. The damage potential of a near-fault ground motion should not be characterized by only a single velocity pulse with a particular period.

Earthquake ground motion takes important part in representing the strength of the earthquake. Near-fault ground motion has significant effect on the response of the structure. Hence, the purpose of this research is to investigate the safety status of a bridge based on probability of exceedance subjected to both near-fault ground motion and far-field ground motion excitations. In order to present the accuracy of the result, fragility curve will be used as probability approaches. A highway bridge located in Changhua County was selected in this study. Non-linear time history is performed to obtain the structure performance under different PGA values. The fragility curve is constructed from calculating of displacement ductility from the response of time history analysis. The results show that fitting ground motions based on a design response spectrum may be an unsuitable approach. However, structural performances under normalized PGA values give a significant difference between near and far-field ground motions.

Velocity pulses and significant incremental velocities contained in near fault ground motions have been recognized as the primary reason for the severe damage to structure. John Hall et al. (1995) has also attributed the damage of a flexible building structure to the displacement pulse contained in the near fault ground motions. However, the indexation and quantification of near fault ground motions with regard to their damaging effects remain for further research. Baker (2007) has adopted the wavelet analysis, as an attempt to quantify the damaging characteristics of near fault ground motions, to identify the velocity pulse period. However, some extracted velocity pulses possess extraordinary long period and has no significant influence to seismic responses of structure. Comparing the seismic structural responses to the original near fault ground motions and the extracted ground motions, it is found that some extracted waveforms cannot well represent the damaging potential of near fault ground motions. Therefore, in this study the extraction of wavelet from near fault ground motions is conducted with the verification of the damaging effect of extracted waveforms to 5 story, 10 story and 20 story moment resisting frames. The three MRFs possess three distinct natural periods so that the pulse periods of near fault ground motion may be examined in sight. In addition, Hilbert Huang transform is also employed to further validate the extraction of wavelet from near fault ground motions.

The damage potential of near-fault ground motions to structures, in particular the flexible structures such as seismically isolated structures and high-rise buildings, may be much more than that of far-field ground motions. In 1971, Mahin and Bertero discovered that the “maximum incremental velocity” could be one of the indices to well represent the damage potential of near-fault ground motions. In 1995, John Hall et al. showed that the displacement pulse contained in the near fault ground motions could also be another index demonstrating damage potential of near fault ground motions. Considering the two important findings, this study is conducted with an intension to investigate the significance of a parameter which is composed of the maximum incremental velocity (MIV) and the duration of maximum incremental velocity (TIV). The MIV is multiplied by TIV as an index for the seismic response demand on isolation systems by near fault ground motions. For design purpose of isolation system against near-fault ground motions, the current isolation design specifications generated from equivalent linear analysis are examined for their accuracy and appropriateness in predicting the seismic responses of isolation system subject to near fault ground motions. Maximum seismic responses obtained from various equivalent linear models using linear dynamic analysis are compared with those determined by nonlinear dynamic analysis. In addition, maximum responses predicted using iterative static analysis as employed by current seismic isolation design codes are used to compare with the results from nonlinear dynamic analysis so that the damping reduction factor can then be examined for its appropriateness.

The research focuses on the issue which was the multiple span bridge which located at the middle and downstream quickly faced flood and earthquake that kind of multiple disasters in Taiwan. The problem came out that the bridge scoured by the riverbed, the foundation of the bridge exposed and then made the stiffness and strength of the foundation decreased. Therefore, when the moment the near-fault ground motion happened, the structure of the bridge bear displacement hugely and faced unpredictable damage in very short time, and also illustrated of the seismic ability of the bridge substantial declined. The research undertook the seismic strength of bridge which was the situation of the exposed bridge under the near-fault ground motion by using the capacity spectrum approach to analysis the seismic ability of the exposed bride bent in different scour depth. The research analysis by the finite element model, using the soil spring to model the pressure of the pile of the soil, and model the bridge and pile to the two-degree-of-freedom. Next, through the two-degree-of-freedom system to get the strength which gained on the pile cap and cap beam, and then using the ratio of the lateral force for pushover analysis. In different scour depth, the pushover curve should transfer by capacity spectrum approach. From the research result, the limitation of the seismic ability would define that the bridge reached the damage-control limit or the pile reaches the serviceability limit, and to calculate the performance point to the peak ground acceleration, then by the performance-point ground acceleration to analysis the change of seismic ability. It could conclude that when the near-fault ground motion act on the bridge of exposed foundation, there was not significantly modified the depth of scour. Until the depth over crossed the critical scour depth, as the seismic performance of the pier was controlled by the pile, the performance point peak ground acceleration drop rapidly. The result showed the seismic ability declined significantly. The research compared the different style of exposed bridge in various ground motion, to explore the influence coefficient of near-fault ground motion by the different depth of scouring, and to understand the different recording will have the different performance-point ground acceleration and the influence coefficient of near-fault ground motion. However, both of the peak ground acceleration of performance point and the influence coefficient of near-fault ground motion would become closer by the developing of scour depth.

The circular buildings feature the appropriated plan for seismic resistance capacity. However, few researches conducted the circular buildings with the configuration of traditional earthen. This study focuses on the seismic resistance capacity of this building to develop the corresponding fragility curves. A three dimension model is developed to perform the nonlinear time history analysis. The maximum story drift ratios of the building serve as an indicator for the various damages. The maximum likelihood method is used to construct the fragility curves. The preparation of this research includes several objectives. The sensitivity of input ground motions relates to the responses of the circular buildings. The Bonet section reduction model and the Anastasopoulos nonlinear rocking soil spring affect the responses of the building. The pulse periods of pulse-like earthquakes correlated with the various damage states. The identified pulse periods in this study compared with previous researches. The dispersion of fragility curves of ground motion uncertainty compares with those of ATC58. The fragility curves proposed in this study can implement to the similar configuration of structures.

In recent years, strong-column-weak-beam structural systems have been widely used in design of tall buildings. For these systems, when strong earthquake comes, the weak beams may fail due to large deformation, but the strong columns can still function, holding the whole structure, and preventing it from collapse. From many valuable literatures and earthquake reports, it is not difficult to find that some buildings were damaged first from the upper portion of the buildings, because of the higher mode effects. With the aid of SAP2000 program and based on the newly issued seismic design code in Taiwan, this study designed 3-bay, 20&30-story buildings first. Then, proper viscous dampers or buckling restrained braces (BRBS) were installed in the buildings. Some near-fault earthquake data were chosen from Chi-Chi earthquake records and nonlinear seismic simulation were performed for the buildings, in order to achieve the goal of this study-to find the best arrangement of dampers or BRBS, such that the higher mode effects on the buildings can be mitigated. Simulation results were compared and studied. It is found that the higher mode effects, indeed, can be mitigated if the installed dampers or BRBS in the buildings can yield higher mode damping ratios for higher modes.

The "Gi-Gi Earthquake" and the "Gya- Yi Earthquake" occurred in 1999 brought a serious disaster to middle Taiwan. Since these two earthquakes are owing to the fault movement, those buildings near the fault are seriously damaged. It is then believed that those buildings near the fault should be designed to own higher earthquake resistance. Based on this background, this thesis investigates the possible disaster brings by the fault earthquake and examine those related regulations of the UBC code to upgrade the structural design for buildings near fault in Taiwan. The main contents investigated by this paper are: 1. Introduce the seismic characteristics, classification, engineering property, and the examination of possible disaster resulted from the earthquake due to fault. 2. Review UBC related regulations for structural design for buildings near faults, such as the near fault types, distance from the fault, near fault factors (i.e. Na, Nv), and investigate the corresponding literature in Taiwan. 3. Examine the common buildings defaults from the building failures due to the "Gi-Gi Earthquake" and the "Gya- Yi Earthquake". 4. Combine the structural analysis technique and the resistance evaluation regulated by Architecture & Building Research Institute, Ministry of Interior. Two cases are chosen to implement the seismic resistance evaluation and rehabilitation analysis.

Presently, there are thousands of base isolated structures constructed worldwide. The number of the isolated structures has been increasing rapidly in the last few years primarily due to the maturity of the isolation technology itself and also human awareness of earthquake risk. Some of these constructed cases were even subjected to real-live earthquakes and proved the effectiveness of the technology. However, very few of them were ever subjected to near-fault ground waves that possess very different characteristics and response spectra from those of far-field waves. These characteristics include large vertical accelerations, long-period pulse-like velocity waves and strong PGA values. It is for these reasons that even though the seismic isolation has been proven of being effective for protecting structures from far-field earthquakes, further studies on the safety and effectiveness of near-fault base isolation are still required. Especially, given the fact that a near-fault earthquake is usually accompanied by sever ground shaking and can easily become a fatal disaster. By using several sets of near-fault records collected from Chi-Chi earthquake that attacked Taiwan in 1999, this study investigates and compares the seismic behaviors of structures with sliding isolators, such as FPS, when subjected to near-fault and far-field earthquakes. It is shown that the effect of the vertical acceleration component of the near-fault waves on the response of a sliding isolated structure is insignificant unless the vertical component becomes extremely large and in resonance with the vertical frequency of the superstructure. However, the horizontal displacement of the isolators and the horizontal acceleration of the superstructure can be considerably amplified by the pulse-like long-period wave possessed in most near-fault earthquakes. The conclusions drawn from this study will be helpful in modifying the design codes of near-fault seismic isolation. Strategy of mitigating the effect of long-period velocity waves and improving the effectiveness of near-fault isolation, such as using passive energy dissipation devices, low friction bearings or variable curvature isolators is also investigated.

Повний текст джерелаThe northern segment of the San Andreas fault last ruptured in 1906, producing the great San Francisco earthquake. This study involves the collection and interpretation of geologic data from the segment of the northern San Andreas fault near Point Arena, California, to determine the recurrence interval and slip rate of this segment of the fault.
Holocene sediments deposited on an alluvial fan preserve a record of prehistoric earthquakes near Point Arena, California. Excavations into the fan provided exposures of the sediments across the San Andreas fault zone. At least five earthquakes were recognized in the section. All of these occurred since the deposition of a unit that is approximately 2000 years old. Because deposition in this setting was intermittent and deposition of younger units involved the erosion of underlying units, it is likely that events occurred that were not recorded in the section. Radiocarbon dating of units in the section allows constraints to be placed on the dates of the earthquakes recognized. A buried Holocene (2356-2709 years old) channel has been offset a maximum of 64 ± 2 meters. This implies a maximum slip rate of 25.5 ± 2.5 mm/yr. These data suggest that the average recurrence interval for great earthquakes on this segment of the San Andreas fault is long - between about 200 and 400 years.
Offset marine terrace risers near Point Arena and an offset landslide near Fort Ross provide estimates of the average slip rate across the San Andreas fault since Late Pleistocene time. Near Fort Ross, a landslide has been offset approximately 1.7 km across the San Andreas fault. Radiocarbon analysis of charcoal from this deposit indicates that the landslide is older than 43,700 years. This implies a slip rate of less than 39 mm/yr. Correlation of two marine terrace risers across the San Andreas fault near Point Arena suggests offsets of approximately 1.5 and 2.5 km. The U-series age of a solitary coral, altitudinal spacing and correlation with known global high sea-level stands suggest ages of 83,000 and 133,000 years for these surfaces, indicating slip rates of about 18-19 mm/yr since Late Pleistocene time.
Tentative correlation of the Pliocene Ohlson Ranch Formation in northwestern Sonoma County with deposits 50 km to the northwest near Point Arena, provides piercing points to use in calculation of a Pliocene slip rate for the northern San Andreas fault. A fission-track age of 3.3 ± 0.8 Ma was determined for zircons separated from a tuff collected from the Ohlson Ranch Formation. The geomorphology of the region, especially of the two major river drainages, supports the proposed 50 km Pliocene offset. This implies a Pliocene slip rate of at least 12-20 mm/yr.
These rates for different time periods imply that the slip rate of the northern San Andreas fault has not changed by more than a factor of two since Pliocene time. The rates also imply that much of the Pacific-North American plate motion must be accommodated on other structures at this latitude.
