DESASTRES CAUSADOS POR SISMOS

-70% DE LA TIERRA SE CONSIDERA SISMICAMENTE ACTIVA. 1,000,000,000 PERSONAS

VIVEN EN ZONAS CON RIESGO SISMICO

-LOS SISMOS PUEDEN CAUSAR PERDIDAS HUMANAS Y PERDIDAS MATERIALES

IMPORTANTES.

-LOS SISMOS NO PUEDEN PREVENIRSE NI PREDECIR CON PRECISION.

-NO SON LOS MOVIMIENTOS SISMICOS DIRECTAMENTE LOS QUE CAUSAN PERDIDAS,

SINO EL COLAPSO O DANO DE ESTRUCTURAS NO RESISTENTES.

• The Lithosphere is more firm/ rigid compared to the soft

Mantel.

• The hot Inner core consists of hot soft rock compared

with the cooler rigid rock of the lithosphere. Hence the

inner core drives convection current to the surface

• Tectonic plates are driven by the convective motion of

the  material  in  the  earth’s  mantle,  which  in  turn  is  driven  

by  the  heat  generated  at  the  earth’s  core

FAULTS AND EARTHQUAKES

21

Faults may range in length from a few millimeters to thousands

of kilometers.

The fault surface can be horizontal or vertical or some arbitrary

angle in between.

Faults which move along the direction of the dip plane are dip-

slip faults and described as either normal or reverse, depending

on their motion.

Faults which move horizontally are known as strike-slip faults

and are classified as either right-lateral or left-lateral.

Faults which show both dip-slip and strike-slip motion are known

as oblique-slip faults.

Usually Tsunamis are created by faults which show dip-slip

and oblique motion.

Maria Gabriella Mulas

CAUSES OF EARTHQUAKES

22

Stresses build

up in the crust,

usually due to

lithospheric plate

motions

Rock deform

(strain) as the

result of stress.

The strain is

energy stored in

the rocks.

02 - Seismology 14/03/2012

12

Maria Gabriella Mulas

FAULTS AND EARTHQUAKE

23

Relative plate motion at the fault interface is constrained by friction and/or

asperities (areas of interlocking due to protrusions in the fault surfaces). However,

strain energy accumulates in the plates, eventually overcomes any resistance, and

causes slip between the two sides of the fault. This sudden slip, termed elastic

rebound releases large amounts of energy, which constitutes or is the earthquake.

Maria Gabriella Mulas

Typically, someone will build a straight reference line such as a road, railroad, pole line,

or fence line across the fault while it is in the pre-rupture stressed state. After the

earthquake, the formerly straight line is distorted into a shape having increasing

displacement near the fault, a process known as elastic rebound.

FAULTS AND EARTHQUAKE

25

When an earthquake fault ruptures, it causes two types of deformation:

static; and dynamic. Static deformation is the permanent displacement

of the ground due to the event. The earthquake cycle progresses from

a fault that is not under stress, to a stressed fault as the plate tectonic

motions driving the fault slowly proceed, to rupture during an

earthquake and a newly-relaxed but deformed state.

Seismic Deformation

FAULTS AND EARTHQUAKE

26

Like most stories in geology, this one starts

beneath the surface. The continents we live on

are parts of moving plates. Most of the action

takes place where plates meet. Plates may

collide, pull apart, or scrape past each other.

All the stress and strain produced by moving

plates  builds  up  in  the  Earth’s  rocky  crust  until  it  

simply can't take it any more. All at once,

CRACK!, the rock breaks and the two rocky

blocks move in opposite directions along a more

or less planar fracture surface called a fault.

The sudden movement generates an earthquake

at a point called the focus. The energy from the

earthquake spreads out as seismic waves in all

directions. The epicenter of the earthquake is the

location where seismic waves reach the surface

directly above the focus.

“hypocenter”  is  

another name

for the focus

FAULT AND EARTHQUAKE

Normal fault

We classify faults by how the two rocky blocks on either side of a fault

move relative to each other. The one you see here is a normal fault. A

normal fault drops rock on one side of the fault down relative to the other

side. Take a look at the side that shows the fault and arrows indicating

movement. the block farthest to the right that looks kind of like a foot is

the foot wall. The block on the other side of the fault is resting or

hanging on top of the foot wall block and is named hanging wall.

If we hold the foot wall stationary, gravity will normally want to pull the

hanging wall down. Faults that move the way you would expect gravity to

move them normally are called normal faults!

Where the fault has ruptured the Earth surface, that movement along the

fault has produced an elongate fault generated cliff called fault scarp.

Reverse fault

The fault you see here is a reverse fault. Along a reverse fault one

rocky block is pushed up relative to rock on the other side.

Here’s  a  way  to  tell  a  reverse  fault  from  a  normal  fault.  Take  a  look  at  

the side that shows the fault and arrows indicating movement. The

block farthest to the right that is the foot wall. The block on the other

side of the fault is the hanging wall.

If we hold the foot wall stationary, where would the hanging wall go if

we reversed gravity? The hanging wall will slide upwards. When

movement along a fault is the reverse of what you would expect with

normal gravity we call them reverse faults!

Strike-slip fault

Strike-slip faults have a different type of movement than normal and reverse

faults. You probably noticed that the blocks that move on either side of a

reverse or normal fault slide up or down along a dipping fault surface.

The rocky blocks on either side of strike-slip faults, on the other hand, scrape

along side-by-side. You can see in the illustration that the movement is

horizontal and the rock layers beneath the surface haven't been moved up or

down on either side of the fault.

Take a look where the fault has ruptured the Earth surface. Notice that pure

strike-slip faults do not produce fault scarps.

FAULT AND EARTHQUAKE

Real-life

In real-life faulting is not such a

simple picture! Usually faults do not

have purely up-and-down or side-by-

side movement as we described

above.  It’s  much  more  common  to  

have some combination of fault

movements occurring together. For

example,  along  California’s  famous  

San Andreas strike-slip fault system,

about 95% of the movement is

strike-slip, but about 5% of the

movement is reverse faulting in

some areas!

Surface Waves – seismic  waves  that  tr avel  along  Ea rth’s  surface, most destructive seismic waves

Surface waves travel along the ground and cause the ground and anything resting upon it to move

Body P waves – push-pull waves; they push (compress) and pull (expand) rocks in the direction the waves travel

Body S waves – shake the particles at right angles to their direction of travel

Gases and liquids do not transmit S waves, but do transmit P waves

A seismogram shows all three types of waves: the P waves arrive first, then the S waves, followed by the surface waves last

The waves arrive at different times because they travel at different speeds

Typically, the ground motion records, termed seismographs or time histories, have recorded acceleration (these records are termed accelerograms)

Time histories theoretically contain complete information about the motion at the instrumental location

Time histories (i.e., the earthquake motion at the site) can differ dramatically in duration, frequency content, and amplitude.

The maximum amplitude of recorded acceleration is termed the peak ground acceleration, PGA

Engineers to not design structures on the base of magnitude, but on the

peak ground acceleration and displacement at the site.

Attenuation curves relate the peak ground acceleration to the magnitude

of the earthquake with the distance from the fault rupture.

Seismic hazard map: the contour lines provide the peak acceleration

based on attenuation curves.

Structural damage - 1

Structural damage does not usually occur for M < 5.0

Most damage is caused by strong shaking and/or failure

of the surrounding soil

Damage can result also from surface ruptures, failure of

nearby lifelines or failure of more vulnerable structures.

These are usually secondary effects but can become

predominant in some cases (1999, JiJi Earthquake in

Taywan)

Levels of damage can be adopted in design to guarantee a

level of performance.

Maria Gabriella Mulas 8

Structural damage - 3

Most engineered structures are designed to prevent

collapse only: structures must have sufficient ductility to

survive an earthquake.

This means that elements will yield and deform, but they

will be strong in shear and continue to support their load

during and after the earthquakes

DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF

SOIL PROBLEMS

9 Maria Gabriella Mulas 10

Soil liquefaction - 1

When loose saturated sands, silts or gravel are shaken,

the material consolidates, reducing the porosity and

increasing water pressure.

The ground settles, often unevenly, tilting and toppling

structures that were formerly supported by the soil.

The buildings – with little damage - fell as the liquefied

soil lost its ability to support them; collapse can take

place hours after earthquake

Maria Gabriella Mulas 11

Soil liquefaction - 2

• Structures supported on liquefied soil topple

• Structures that retain liquefied soil are pushed forward

• Structures buried in liquefied soil (as tunnel or culverts)

float to the surface

• A culvert is a device used to channel water. It may be used to allow

water to pass underneath a road, railway, or embankment for

example

zero. The particle is in dynamic equilibrium.

• Methods developed for particles in static

equilibrium may be applied, e.g., coplanar forces

may be represented with a closed vector polygon.

• Inertia vectors are often called inertial forces as

they measure the resistance that particles offer to

changes in motion, i.e., changes in speed or

direction.

• Inertial forces may be conceptually useful but are

• Mechanical vibration is the motion of a particle or body which

oscillates about a position of equilibrium. Most vibrations in

machines and structures are undesirable due to increased stresses

and energy losses.

• Time interval required for a system to complete a full cycle of the

motion is the period of the vibration.

• Number of cycles per unit time defines the frequency of the vibrations.

• Maximum displacement of the system from the equilibrium position is

the amplitude of the vibration.

• When the motion is maintained by the restoring forces only, the

vibration is described as free vibration. When a periodic force is applied

to the system, the motion is described as forced vibration.

• When the frictional dissipation of energy is neglected, the motion

is said to be undamped. Actually, all vibrations are damped to

start to oscillate (or vibrate) back and forth about its initial

equilibrium position: FREE VIBRATION

In an ideal case, the structure will oscillate indefinitely,

without any energy dissipation: the kinetic energy will convert

in potential energy and viceversa.

Degrees of freedom for dynamic analysis is the number of

independent parameters required to define the displaced

position of all the masses relative to their original position.

for the dynamic analysis.

The stiffness matrix is computed with the standard method

of displacement method, by imposing an unit value to one

coordinate (dof) while the remaining are equal to zero.

The stiffness coefficients are the forces that are necessary

to maintain the system in equilibrium. They can be thought

as the reactions of additional constraints, inserted to

impose the desired values to the dofs.

Force-displacement relation: inelastic systems

For inelastic systems, the restoring force is no longer a

single valued function of the displacement/deformation:

We are interested in studying the dynamic response of

inelastic systems because almost all the structures are

designed with the expectation that they will evolve in the

nonlinear range (cracking, yielding, damage etc) during

the intense ground shaking caused by an earthquake.

ESTRUCTURAS 1 GRADO DE LIBERTAD

METODO DE SOLUCION:

-Se conoce la masa, rigidez y coeficiente de amortigumiento. Se conoce la excitacion externa ya sea en forma de una fuerza

dinamica P(t) o en forma de desplazamiento del suelo Ug(t). Las condiciones de inicio son U=0

-Se requiere la respuesta de la estructura, ya sea en forma de desplazamientos, velocidades, aceleraciones o fuerzas

internas.

-Luego que se calculo el desplazamiento de respuesta U(t) de la estructura, se calculan los esfuerzos internos para cada

instante de tiempo utilizando ANALISIS ESTATICOS: 1) Se le puede aplicar la deformacion a la estructura y hallar los

esfuerzos internos. 2) Se le puede aplicar la fuerza estatica equivalente P, la cual aplicada en dado momento debe resultar en

la misma derformacion U calculado anteriormente. 3) En sistemas inelasticos se deben hacer calculos paso a paso

incrementales.

-Para resolver la ecuacion diferencial de segundo grado se utiliza la integral de Duhamel, donde se representa la fuerza

externa como una secuencia de cortos impulsos infinitos.

Methods of solution of the differential equation

The equation of motion of a SDOF system subjected to

external force is a second order differential equation:

To define completely the problem we must assign the initial

conditions, that is displacement and velocity at time t=0.

Typically, the structure is at rest before the onset of the

dynamic excitation

41 Maria Gabriella Mulas, Paolo Martinelli

Classical solution

The complete solution of the differential equation is the sum

of the complementary solution uc(t) and the particular

solution up(t)

Since the differential equation is of second order, two

constants of integration are involved

They appear in the complementary solution and are

evaluated from the initial conditions

42

tututu cp

Maria Gabriella Mulas, Paolo Martinelli

Duhamel’s  integral

43

In this approach the external force is represented as a

sequence of infinitesimally short impulses.

The response of the system to an applied force p(t) at

time t, is obtained by adding the responses to all the

impulses up to that time:

Implicit  in  this  result  are  the  “at  rest”  initial  conditions.  

We will use this method to compute the response to

earthquake excitation

Maria Gabriella Mulas, Paolo Martinelli

Other methods not used in this course

Transform methods: based on Laplace and Fourier

transforms, they provide a powerful tool to solve differential

equations (we solve in the so called frequency domain,

opposed to time domain of the previous methods)

Numerical methods represent the practical approach to solve

differential equations of motion for non linear systems

They are based on an incremental form of the motion

equations: we do not find the function u(t) and its derivatives,

but only a discrete series of values of displacement, velocity

and acceleration.

A 50-kg block moves between vertical

guides as shown. The block is pulled

40mm down from its equilibrium

position and released.

For each spring arrangement, determine

a) the period of the vibration, b) the

maximum velocity of the block, and c)

the maximum acceleration of the block.

SOLUTION:

• For each spring arrangement, determine

the spring constant for a single

equivalent spring.

• Apply the approximate relations for the

harmonic motion of a spring-mass

system.

Necessary steps:

1. Numerically define

2. Select Tn and ς

3. Compute u(t)

4. Determine the peak value u0

5. Spectral ordinates are D= u0 V = ωnD A = (ωn)2 D

6. Repeat steps 2 to 5 for a range of Tn and ς  covering all the possible

engineering systems of interest

7. Plot the results obtained (three separate spectra or one combined

Response Spectrum Concept

A plot of the peak value of a response quantity as a function

of the natural period Tn or related quantities as fn or ωn is

called response spectrum for that quantity.

By definition, the peak response is positive; the sign is dropped

because it is usually irrelevant for design.

Each plot is derived for a SDF having a fixed damping ratio ς.

spectrum due to different

earthquake can differ; all of them

are jagged. It is not possible to

41

The design spectrum should be representative of ground motions

recorded at the site during past earthquakes.

If none has been recorded, the DS should be based on ground

motions recorded at other sites under similar conditions

The important factors to be matched are:

• The magnitude of the earthquake

• The distance of site from causative fault

• The fault mechanism

• The geology of the travel path of seismic waves from source to

site

• The local conditions at the site

Maria Gabriella Mulas

Design spectrum must be based on statistical analysis of the

response spectra for an ensemble of a number I of ground motions

Each accelerogram is characterized by the time history and the

peak values of displacement, velocity and acceleration

Accelerograms are scaled (up or down) to the same peak

acceleration.

The response spectrum is computed for each of them

For each period Tn we have I values of Di, Vi and Ai

Force-deformation behavior

Since the 1960’s thousands of laboratory tests have been

conducted to determine the force-deformation behavior for

earthquake condition of:

•Structural members

•Assemblage of members

•Scaled model of structures

•Small full-scale structures

Response depends on both structural material and the

structural systems.

Common feature: force-deformation relationship shows

hysteresis loops under cyclic deformation due to inelastic

behavior

Force deformation relation: panel zone of a steel

welded beam-to-column connection

No strength degradation; no stiffness degradation

Stable cycles, large amount of dissipated energy

VIBRACION LIBRE DE SISTEMAS MGL SIN AMORTIGUAMIENTO

Vibración es iniciada por curva A

El movimiento no es harmónico

Se origina un movimiento harmónico gracias a la correcta proporción constant de U. Estas dos

VIBRACION LIBRE DE SISTEMAS MGL SIN AMORTIGUAMIENTO

El período natural de vibración es el tiempo requerido para

completer un ciclo de movimiento harmónico en uno de los

modos naturales de vibración. Su inversa es llamada

frecuencia natural.

Las N raices de Wn son conocidas

como los valores eigen (eigenvalues),

de los cuales obtenemos Tn. El primer

período T1 es llamado fundamental.

Luego de conocer Wn podemos

calcular la forma modal Φn

VIBRACION LIBRE DE SISTEMAS MGL SIN AMORTIGUAMIENTO

La solución del problema EIGEN no da valores de

amplitud de Φ sino su forma. Los N vectores de Φn son

los modos naturales de vibración, cada uno asociado

con un T. Son llamados naturales porque son

propiedades del sistema, que dependen solo de la

rigidez y de la masa.

Una matriz cuadrada con todos los

valores de Φ, donde cada columna es

-SRSS (square root sum of squares). Excelentes resultados para estructuras con

FILOSOFÍA DE DISEÑO

-Se diseña con sismos de 100 a 500 años de período de retorno, muy altos para resistir en el

rango elástico.

-Estructuras son diseñadas para resistencias de un 15-25% de la respuesta elástica.

-Esperamos que las estructuras resistan gracias a deformaciones grandes inelásticas y

disipación de energía gracias al comportamiento inelástico de materiales.

-Probabilidad annual de falla elástica: 1 a 3% por fuerzas sísmicas, 0,01% por cargas

gravitacionales.

DEL RANGO ELÁSTICO AL INELÁSTICO

-De observaciones en campo se determinó que las fallas no eran necesariamente por falta de

Resistencia

-Si la Resistencia estructural se podía mantener sin mucha degradación, la estructura puede

resistir el sismo y muchas veces ser reparada. (ductilidad)

-Las filosofìas de diseño pasaron de la Resistencia a grandes cargas laterales, a la evasiòn de

estas, dando paso para el diseño inelástico.

-No todos los mecanismos inelásticos son aceptados: unos disipan energía y otros ocasionan

fallas.
