We present a catalog of moment tensor (MT) solutions and moment magnitudes, Mw, for 119 shallow (h ≤ 40 km) earthquakes in Greece and its surrounding lands (34°N–42°N, 19°E–30°E) for the years 2006 and 2007, computed with the 1D Time-Domain Moment Tensor inversion method (TDMT_INV code of Dreger, 2003). Magnitudes range from 3.2 ≤ Mw ≤ 5.7. Green's functions (GF) have been pre-computed to build a library, for a number of velocity profiles applicable to the broader Aegean Sea region, to be used in the inversion of observed broad band waveforms (10–50 s). All MT solutions are the outcome of a long series of tests of different reported source locations and hypocenter depths. Quality factors have been assigned to each MT solution based on the number of stations used in the inversion and the goodness of fit between observed and synthetic waveforms. In general, the focal mechanisms are compatible with previous knowledge on the seismotectonics of the Aegean area. The new data provide evidence for strike-slip faulting along NW–SE trending structures at the lower part of Axios basin, close to the heavily industrialized, and presently subsiding, region of the city of Thessaloniki. Normal faulting along E–W trending planes is observed at the Strimon basin, and in Orfanou Gulf in northern Greece. A sequence of events in the east Aegean Sea close to the coastline with western Anatolia sheds light on an active structure bounding the north coastline of Psara–Chios Islands about 20–25 km in length exhibiting right lateral strike-slip faulting. 相似文献

In this work the development and the application of an operational management tool for the Greek Seas is described. This tool consists of a three-dimensional floating pollutant prediction model coupled with a weather, a hydrodynamic and a wave model in order to track the movements and the spreading of the pollutants and indicate those coastal areas which might be affected. The tool is part of the Poseidon system which has been designed to provide real time data and forecasts for marine environmental conditions in the Greek Seas. In this paper, we present four case studies based on realistic scenarios that show the value of the application for long-term strategic planning and short-term decision making in oil spill accidents. 相似文献

The turbulent advection-diffusion mathematical model in three-dimensional space is solved by a mixed finite element finite difference method. Linear finite elements in the vertical direction and central finite differences in the horizontal directions are used coupled with the Galerkin error minimization procedure. The integration in time is performed in fractional steps (one explicit one implicit) by splitting the differential operator. The method is illustrated by application to the three-dimensional movement of suspended sediment. Its accuracy is checked by comparison to analytical solutions and its efficiency is gauged relative to finite elements and implicit finite difference solutions for two-dimensional suspended sediment transport over a dredged channel. 相似文献

The July 2003 sequence in the Gulf of Saros (Northeastern Aegean Sea) is investigated, in terms of accurate event locations and source properties of the largest events. The distribution of epicenters shows the activation of a 25-km long zone, which extends in depth between 9 and 20 km. The major slip patch of the 6 July 2003 Mw 5.7 mainshock is confined in a small area (45 km2), which coincides with the deeper (12–20 km) part of the activated zone. The epicenters of the sequence follow the northern margin of the Saros depression. This observation supports recent studies, according to which the continuation of the Ganos fault in the Gulf of Saros does not coincide with the fault along the northern coast of the Gelibolu peninsula, but it is located at the northern boundary of the Saros depression. This is further supported by the fact that the focal mechanisms of the mainshock and of the largest aftershocks of the 2003 sequence imply almost pure dextral strike-slip faulting, whereas the fault bounding the Gulf of Saros to the south appears as a normal fault on seismic sections. Thus, we infer that the principle deformation zone consists of a major strike-slip fault, which lies close to the northern margin of the Saros depression and this fault could be regarded as the continuation of the northern branch of the North Anatolian Fault into the Saros Gulf and North Aegean Trough as suggested by regional tectonic models. The northeastern extent of the 2003 sequence marks the western termination (at 26.3° E) of a long-term seismic quiescence observed in the period following the 1912 Ganos earthquake, which may be associated with the extend of the rupture of the particular earthquake. 相似文献

Broadband data from the P?íbram seismological network was used to investigate the source of two earthquakes, with magnitudes M w ?=?0.2 and 0.4 respectively, occurring in the period of October–November 2009 in the Háje natural gas storage area (Czech Republic). Both events were located inside the limits of the storage area and at depths similar to those of the underground caverns where the gas is stored. We applied an inversion technique using the software ISOLA for moment tensor retrieval in order to assess the source process of both events and recognize whether a significant isotropic component existed that could be interpreted as a possible cavern collapse. We also performed an uncertainty analysis so as to confirm the reliability of the focal mechanism solutions and we controlled the consistency between the inverted focal mechanisms and those calculated using the P-waves first motions. Our results showed that the nodal plane orientation, the centroid depth, and the magnitude remained stable. Furthermore, we calculated synthetic waveforms for collapse-type ruptures and compared them with the original records. The match between the synthetic and the original data was very poor supporting the interpretation of the shear character of the events. The combination of the inversion results, which indicated significant double-couple components and of the synthetic tests, which supported the inexistence of an isotropic component at the source, led to the conclusion that the possibility of rocks falling from the ceiling of the caverns or a cavern collapse is highly unlikely. 相似文献

We use 576 earthquakes of magnitude, M
w, 3.3 to 6.8 that occurred within the region 33° N–42.5° N, 19° E–30° E in the time period 1969 to 2007 to investigate the
stability of the relation between moment magnitude, M
w, and local magnitude, M
L, for earthquakes in Greece and the surrounding regions. We compare M
w to M
L as reported in the monthly bulletins of the National Observatory of Athens (NOA) and to M
L as reported in the bulletins of the Seismological Station of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. All earthquakes have
been analyzed through regional or teleseismic waveform inversion, to obtain M
w, and have measured maximum trace amplitudes on the Wood–Anderson seismograph in Athens, which has been in operation since
1964. We show that the Athens Wood–Anderson seismograph performance has changed through time, affecting the computed by NOA
M
L by at least 0.1 magnitude units. Specifically, since the beginning of 1996, its east–west component has been recording systematically
much larger amplitudes compared to the north–south component. From the comparison between M
w and M
L reported by Thessaloniki, we also show that the performance of the sensors has changed several times through time, affecting
the calculated M
L’s. We propose scaling relations to convert the M
L values reported from the two centers to M
w. The procedures followed here can be applied to other regions as well to examine the stability of magnitude calculations
through time. 相似文献

The complete mathematical model for the non steady hydrodynamic circulation due to wind, waves and density gradients in a coastal area or a lake is solved by the combined application of the weighted residuals—Galerkin method and the finite difference method. The computation of u and v velocity components in x, y, z, t space is achieved through expansion in series of base functions times undetermined coefficients over the depth. The computation of these coefficients giving the vertical variation of the velocity is done by the Galerkin method. The rapid convergence of this procedure permits a quick and economic evaluation of 3-D flows on a 2-D grid (in x, y space). The capabilities of the method were demonstrated by applying it to a tidal flow in an estuary. 相似文献

Reliable 3D modelling of underground hydrocarbon reservoirs is a challenging task due to the complexity of the underground geological formations and to the availability of different types of data that are typically affected by uncertainties.In the case of geologically complex depositional environments,such as fractured hydrocarbon reservoirs,the uncertainties involved in the modelling process demand accurate analysis and quantification in order to provide a reliable confidence range of volumetric estimations.In the present work,we used a 3D model of a fractured carbonate reservoir and populated it with different lithological and petrophysical properties.The available dataset also included a discrete fracture network(DFN)property that was used to model the fracture distribution.Uncertainties affecting lithological facies,their geometry and absolute positions(related to the fault system),fracture distribution and petrophysical properties were accounted for.We included all different types of uncertainties in an automated approach using tools available in today's modelling software packages and combining all the uncertain input parameters in a series of statistically representative geological realizations.In particular,we defined a specific workflow for the definition of the absolute permeability according to an equivalent,single porosity approach,taking into account the contribution of both the matrix and the fracture system.The results of the analyses were transferred into a 3D numerical fluid-dynamic simulator to evaluate the propagation of the uncertainties associated to the input data down to the final results,and to assess the dynamic response of the reservoir following a selected development plan.The"integrated approach"presented in this paper can be useful for all technicians involved in the construction and validation of 3D numerical models of hydrocarbon-bearing reservoirs and can potentially become part of the educational training for young geo-scientists and engineers,since an integrated and well-constructed workflow is the backbone of any reservoir study. 相似文献

Rocking damage‐free steel column base with friction devices: design procedure and numerical evaluation 
下载免费PDF全文
下载免费PDF全文 Earthquake‐resilient steel frames, such as self‐centering frames or frames with passive energy dissipation devices, have been extensively studied during the past decade, but little attention has been paid to their column bases. The paper presents a rocking damage‐free steel column base, which uses post‐tensioned high‐strength steel bars to control rocking behavior and friction devices to dissipate seismic energy. Contrary to conventional steel column bases, the rocking column base exhibits monotonic and cyclic moment–rotation behaviors that are easily described using simple analytical equations. Analytical equations are provided for different cases including structural limit states that involve yielding or loss of post‐tensioning in the post‐tensioned bars. A step‐by‐step design procedure is presented, which ensures damage‐free behavior, self‐centering capability, and adequate energy dissipation capacity for a predefined target rotation. A 3D nonlinear finite element (FE) model of the column base is developed in abaqus . The results of the FE simulations validate the accuracy of the moment–rotation analytical equations and demonstrate the efficiency of the design procedure. Moreover, a simplified model for the column base is developed in OpenSees . Comparisons among the OpenSees and abaqus models demonstrate the efficiency of the former and its adequacy to be used in nonlinear dynamic analysis. A prototype steel building is designed as a self‐centering moment‐resisting frame with conventional or rocking column bases. Nonlinear dynamic analyses show that the rocking column base fully protects the first story columns from yielding and eliminates the first story residual drift without any detrimental effect on peak interstory drifts. The study focuses on the 2D rocking motion and, thus, ignores 3D rocking effects such as biaxial bending deformations in the friction devices. The FE models, the analytical equations, and the design procedure will be updated and validated to cover 3D rocking motion effects after forthcoming experimental tests on the column base.

We revisit the April 1979 Montenegro earthquake sequence to invert for finite-fault slip models for the mainshock of 15 April 1979 (Mw 7.1) and of the strongest aftershock of 24 May 1979 (Mw 6.2) using P, SH and SV waveforms, retrieved from IRIS data center. We also used body waveform modelling inversion to confirm the focal mechanism of the mainshock as a pure thrust mechanism and rule out the existence of considerable strike slip component in the motion. The mainshock occurred along a shallow (depth 7 km), low angle (14°) thrust fault, parallel to the coastline and dipping to the NE. Our preferred slip distribution model for the mainshock indicates that rupture initiated from SE and propagated towards NW, with a speed of 2.0 km/s. Moment was released in a main slip patch, confined in an area of L 50 km × W 23 km. The maximum slip ( 2.7 m) occurred 30 km to the NW of the hypocenter (location of rupture initiation). The average slip is 49 cm and the total moment release over the fault is 4.38e19 Nm. The slip model adequately fits the distribution of the Mw ≥ 4.3 aftershocks, as most of them are located in the regions of the fault plane that did not slip during the mainshock. The 24 May 1979 (Mw 6.2) strongest aftershock occurred 40 km NW of the mainshock. Our preferred slip model for this event showed a characteristic two-lobe pattern, where each lobe is 7.5 × 7.5 km2. Rupture initiated in the NW lobe, where the slip obtained its maximum value of 45 cm, very close to the hypocenter, and propagated towards the south-eastern lobe where it reached another maximum value — for this lobe — of 30 cm, approximately 10 km away from the hypocenter. To indirectly validate our slip models we produced synthetic PGV maps (Shake maps) and we compared our predictions with observations of ground shaking from strong motion records. All comparisons were made for rock soil conditions and in general our slip models adequately fit the observations especially at the closest stations where the shaking was considerably stronger. Through the search of the parameter space for our inversions we obtained an optimum location for the mainshock at 42.04°N and 19.21° E and we also observed that better fit to the observations was obtained when the fault was modeled as a blind thrust fault. 相似文献
