利用地震折射、多通道表面波和微震分析研究土耳其哈塔伊省土壤特征

如何引用项目Sertcelik，I.、Kurtulus，C.、Sertcelink，F.、Livaoglu和Sas C.（2020）。利用地震折射、表面波多通道分析和微震对土耳其哈塔伊省土壤特征的调查。《地球科学研究杂志》，24（4），473-484。DOI：https://doi.org/10.15446/esrj.v24n4.79123在这项研究中，进行了浅层地震调查，包括地震折射、表面波多通道分析（MASW）、折射微震（ReMi）和微震测量，以估计哈泰省AFAD（灾害和应急管理主席）的26个强运动站的场地特征，位于土耳其南部地震最活跃的地区之一。应用水平与垂直频谱比（HVSR）技术，使用从长持续时间序列导出的平滑傅立叶频谱来确定不同放大水平下的主频值。通过MASW分析检测到地面30 m以内的剪切波速度。在ReMi分析中，剪切波速达到80 m，相应的平均值为650 m/s。将MASW方法估计的高达30m的剪切波速与ReMi方法发现的剪切波速进行了比较，发现它们非常兼容。哈泰省根据基于Vs30的NEHRP规定、欧洲规范-8、土耳其建筑地震法规（TBDY-2018）和Rodriguez-Marek等人（2001）进行了分类。确定了每个场地的剪切波速（Vs30）、水平垂直比（H/V）峰值振幅、主周期和场地类别。H/V峰值振幅在1.9和7.6之间，而研究区域的主要周期在0.23秒到2.94秒之间。为了解释场地分类方案的一致性，对这些结果进行了研究。利用地震折射、表面波多通道分析和微地震对土耳其哈塔伊省土壤特征的研究
