This event was significant as no large earthquakes had been recorded in the region for over a century, and no active fault had been previously identified. This study collects 1309 P-wave arrival times and 866 S-wave arrival times from 74 seismic stations less than 200 km to the epicenter to constrain the spatial distribution of the mainshock and its 125 early aftershocks by the double difference earthquake relocation method, and selects 864 P-waveforms from 288 stations located within 800 km of the epicenter to constrain the focal mechanism solution of the mainshock through centroid moment tensor inversion. The relocation and the inversion indicate, the Pingyuan <em>M</em><sub>W</sub>5.5 earthquake was caused by a rupture on a buried fault, likely an extensive segment of the Gaotang fault. This buried fault exhibited a dip of approximately 75° to the northwest, with a strike of 222°, similar to the Gaotang fault. The rupture initiated at the depth of 18.6 km and propagated upward and northeastward. However, the ground surface was not broken. The total duration of the rupture was ∼6.0 s, releasing the scalar moment of 2.5895 × 10<sup>17</sup> N·m, equivalent to <em>M</em><sub>W</sub>5.54. The moment rate reached the maximum only 1.4 seconds after the rupture initiation, and the 90% scalar moment was released in the first 4.6 s. In the first 1.4 seconds of the rupture process, the rupture velocity was estimated to be 2.6 km/s, slower than the local S-wave velocity. As the rupture neared its end, the rupture velocity decreased significantly. This study provides valuable insights into the seismic characteristics of the Pingyuan <em>M</em><sub>W</sub>5.5 earthquake, shedding light on the previously unidentified buried fault responsible for the seismic activity in the region. Understanding the behavior of such faults is crucial for assessing seismic hazards and enhancing earthquake preparedness in the future.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46333,"journal":{"name":"Earthquake Science","volume":"37 1","pages":"Pages 1-12"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1674451923000526/pdfft?md5=155260214fcd397a0ac381cfd73a7c15&pid=1-s2.0-S1674451923000526-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139652912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In semi-infinite space, a nondispersive Rayleigh wave mode exists, and the eigendisplacement decays exponentially with depth. In a layered model with increasing layer velocity, the phase velocity of the Rayleigh wave varies between the S-wave velocity of the bottom half-space and that of the classical Rayleigh wave propagated in a supposed half-space formed by the parameters of the top layer. If the phase velocity is the same as the P- or S-wave velocity of the layer, which is called the critical mode or critical phase velocity of surface waves, the general solution of the wave equation is not a homogeneous (expressed by trigonometric functions) or inhomogeneous (expressed by exponential functions) plane wave, but one whose amplitude changes linearly with depth (expressed by a linear function). Theories based on a general solution containing only trigonometric or exponential functions do not apply to the critical mode, owing to the singularity at the critical phase velocity. In this study, based on the classical framework of generalized reflection and transmission coefficients, the propagation of surface waves in horizontally layered media was studied by introducing a solution for the linear function at the critical phase velocity. Therefore, the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the critical mode can be calculated by solving a singular problem. The eigendisplacement characteristics associated with the critical phase velocity were investigated for different layered models. In contrast to the normal mode, the eigendisplacement associated with the critical phase velocity exhibits different characteristics.

The damage to critical urban infrastructure and building structures, including highways, railroads, and water supply pipelines, was particularly severe in areas where these structures intersected the seismogenic fault. Critical infrastructure projects that traverse active faults are susceptible to the influence of fault movement, pulse velocity, and ground motions. In this study, we used a unique approach to analyze the acceleration records obtained from the seismic station array (9 strong ground motion stations) located along the East Anatolian Fault (the seismogenic fault of the <em>M</em><sub>W</sub>7.8 mainshock of the 2023 Türkiye earthquake doublet). The acceleration records were filtered and integrated to obtain the velocity and displacement time histories. We used the results of an on-site investigation, jointly conducted by China Earthquake Administration and Türkiye’s AFAD, to analyze the distribution of PGA, PGV, and PGD recorded by the strong motion array of the East Anatolian Fault. We found that the maximum horizontal PGA in this earthquake was 3.0 g, and the maximum co-seismic surface displacement caused by the East Anatolian Fault rupture was 6.50 m. As the fault rupture propagated southwest, the velocity pulse caused by the directional effect of the rupture increased gradually, with the maximum PGA reaching 162.3 cm/s. We also discussed the seismic safety of critical infrastructure projects traversing active faults, using two case studies of water supply pipelines in Türkiye that were damaged by earthquakes. We used a three-dimensional finite element model of the PE (polyethylene) water pipeline at the Islahiye State Hospital and fault displacement observations obtained through on-site investigation to analyze pipeline failure mechanisms.

The Bayesian-based transdimensional inversion method, characterized by its fully non-linear nature and high degree of freedom in parameter settings, offers a powerful tool for ambient noise inversion.

For the Wenchuan sequence, we perform a numerical fitting of the cumulative number of aftershocks using the Modified Omori Law (MOL), the Dieterich model, and the specific TPS model. The fitting curves indicate that the data can be better explained by the TPS model with a <em>B</em>/<em>A</em> ratio of approximately 1.12, where <em>A</em> and <em>B</em> are the parameters in the rate- and state-dependent friction law respectively. Moreover, the <em>p</em> and <em>c</em> that appear in the MOL can be interpreted by the <em>B/A</em> and the critical slip distance, respectively. Because the <em>B/A</em> ratio in the current model is always larger than 1, the model could become a possible candidate to explain aftershock rate commonly decay as a power law with a <em>p</em>-value larger than 1. Finally, the influence of the background seismicity rate <em>r</em> on parameters is studied; the results show that except for the apparent aftershock duration, other parameters are insensitive to <em>r</em>.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46333,"journal":{"name":"Earthquake Science","volume":"36 6","pages":"Pages 445-457"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1674451923000538/pdfft?md5=e60afefd449d76f8d1d804ce39f3eed3&pid=1-s2.0-S1674451923000538-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138484923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
