Seismic vibrations are a hindrance that reduces the accuracy of the experimental setup when studying materials with precision accuracy and resolution. The experiment was performed with broadband seismological equipment used at seismological stations. Seismic vibrations from different types of sources have been investigated: natural and man-made earthquakes, industrial explosions, noises of automobile and railway transport, vibrations from industrial equipment at enterprises located away from the facility under construction. Natural earthquakes create the strongest broadband impact on the site. Man-made earthquakes in the area of the Gorlovka coal basin can create short-term strong seismic impacts. Industrial explosions in terms of the seismic impact on the site are significantly inferior to the effects of earthquakes and are characterized by a more limited spectral composition of vibrations. The noises of motor transport cover frequencies from 4 to 30 Hz and quickly fade away along the site with distance from the road. Railway noises have the characteristic appearance of a set of multiple harmonics covering a wide frequency range with a duration of up to 10 min. Monochromatic signals from the operation of industrial equipment on and off the site are recorded at the site. At the same time, both continuous signals and those that occur episodically are recorded. A special class consists of monochromatic oscillations with a slowly varying frequency. The information on the level, spectrum, and duration of seismic vibrations necessary for calculating the seismic protection of the SKIF Central Research Center during its creation and development of a seismological monitoring system that compensates for the seismic effect on the accuracy of experiments was obtained.</p>","PeriodicalId":45174,"journal":{"name":"Seismic Instruments","volume":"58 6","pages":"635 - 662"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4421052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During this time, more than 15 trips were made from the fundamental gravimetric point Ledovo to the first class point Zapolskoe and back using two CG 5 Autograv automated relative gravimeters. The most significant parameters that affect the readings of the instruments were identified: ambient temperature, the values of the zero drift of the sensing element of the gravimeter, and the direct increment of gravity. The zero drift was taken into account using a second-order polynomial prediction, and the remaining two parameters were described by a logarithmic dependence. The natural logarithm equation allows describing the functions by measuring the coefficient before the logarithm (logarithmic) and additional (linear). The value of the logarithmic coefficients characterizing the duration of transient processes has a linear dependence on temperature, which means that it can characterize the measurement time at the point in the case of a significant temperature change. The magnitude of the linear coefficients characterizing the increase in gravity depends linearly on temperature when the instruments are moved to a colder environment. When the instruments are moved to a warmer environment (10°), the dependence becomes more complex, possibly random, which also requires an increase in the measurement time at the point. The usual duration of measurements at gravimetric stations is 10 min. The relevance of taking temperature into account at measurement points depends on the required accuracy, for example, for a temperature difference of 10°C, the RMS of gravimetric measurements was ±0.025 mGal.</p>","PeriodicalId":45174,"journal":{"name":"Seismic Instruments","volume":"58 5","pages":"534 - 539"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"5172277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, this study, which offers another approach to creating a discriminatory feature, may be useful for improving the results of recognition of a seismic event. The proposed method is based on continuous wavelet analysis of the seismogram from a single receiver. Two additional transformations (constructing the frequency envelopes to waveletogram and their cross-correlation at a given time) sequentially translate this result into a compact frequency-time portrait of the event. This technique was tested on seismograms of several events, the nature of which is a priori known. Recognition is possible both visually (including machine vision methods) and automatically. For the first option, the key features of frequency-time portraits of events to which attention should be paid are formulated. For the second case, a method for determining the numerical characteristics measured by the obtained images is defined.

Depending on the location of the epicenter, tectonic–structural conditions of the epicentral zone, and earthquake intensity on the Earth’s surface, an aftershock cluster can cover different surface areas. Establishing the quantitative relationships between the aftershock zone and the main parameters of the earthquake (magnitude, rupture length, and slip value) can contribute to improving the model of an earthquake as a natural physical phenomenon. The extents of aftershock and deformation zones, as well as macroseismic changes on the Earth’s surface, indirectly indicate the intensity of the mainshock and the presence of portions with different degrees of weakening of rocks in the epicentral zone. This paper proposes a method to determine the area of such an aftershock zone using a deformational model of earthquake preparation and nucleation proposed earlier by the author. A new expression is obtained for determining the area of an aftershock zone depending on (i) the length of the rupture formed during the earthquake and (ii) the average slip along the rupture; expressions for the logarithmic and linear dependences of this area on the earthquake magnitude are also obtained.

The duration, intensity, and sporadic nature of these two sequences indicate specific mechanisms of seismic energy release, which are probably related to the interaction of the destruction zones of DPRK-5 and DPRK-6 explosions and the collapse of their cavities with the gradual advance of the collapse columns to the free surface. The aftershock activity in 2021 suggested that the collapse process was not yet completed and predicted the occurrence of new aftershocks in the near future, which could end in the collapse column reaching the free surface. These assumptions were confirmed; during the preparation of this work, a strong aftershock with a magnitude of 3.85 was recorded on February 11, 2022, which, according to preliminary estimates, indicates the beginning of the final stage of the advance of the collapse column to the surface, the probability of which is discussed in this study.</p>","PeriodicalId":45174,"journal":{"name":"Seismic Instruments","volume":"58 5","pages":"567 - 580"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"5173825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
