Spectral acceleration and acceleration time histories are the two seismic loads generally used for dynamic analysis of a building. The structural design of buildings is implemented using spectral acceleration at the ground surface obtained from the national seismic code. However, acceleration time histories are developed from specific earthquake events and implemented for building evaluation. This paper presents building evaluations of three existing buildings located in Semarang with heights of at least 40 m. The buildings were built on three different soil types, that is, hard, medium and soft soils. The evaluation was performed by conducting two component north-south and east-west directions of acceleration time histories modified from Semarang fault earthquake scenarios having a magnitude of 7 Mw and maximum epicentre distance 15 Km. Due to incomplete data on Semarang fault earthquakes, the acceleration time histories incorporated herein were collected from worldwide earthquake data bases and modified using response spectral matching and seismic propagation analysis. Stability analyses in terms of structural deformation and drift ratio were carried out for the three buildings. The results show that all three buildings have the capability to resists earthquakes up to a maximum magnitude of 6.5 Mw with an epicentre distance of over 5 Km.

Dam assessment under a specific earthquake event is one of the most important approaches to dam evaluation. The assessments are usually performed by running two different models of seismic loads: spectral acceleration and acceleration time histories. The first model is implemented using seismic load information developed from a national code. The second approach is implemented using earthquake scenarios by conducting acceleration time histories. The National Center for Earthquake Studies 2017 suggested that a shallow crustal fault and subduction are the two most dangerous seismic sources of Yogyakarta Province. This paper presents an evaluation of Sermo dam in terms of dam displacement and peak ground acceleration (PGA) under the Java subduction source earthquake scenarios. The evaluation was performed by conducting twocomponent (north-south and east-west directions) acceleration time histories from Java subduction seismic sources. Due to incomplete data, all acceleration time histories used in this study were collected and modified from worldwide earthquake data bases. Based on the average displacement and PGA values it can be predicted that Sermo dam is strong enough to resist an earthquake with a maximum magnitude of 8.4 Mw and minimum epicentre distance of approximately 160 Km caused by the Java subduction source.

Hospital Building

Research on the improvement of Indonesian seismic hazard maps has already been carried out by the National Center for Earthquake Studies in 2017. One important global data obtained from this research related with all earthquake sources mechanism which might be used for building design and evaluation. Based on this research there are two important and closest earthquake sources to Semarang, Lasem fault (strike slip mechanism) and Semarang fault (reverse mechanism). This paper presents the dynamic structural evaluations of the hospital building (approximately 49 meters height) located in Semarang, Indonesia, by conducting two seismic load functions, two-component surface spectral acceleration (X and Y directions) developed from Indonesian Seismic Code SNI:1726-2012 and three-component (North-South, East-West and Vertical) of surface acceleration time histories. All acceleration time histories were modified from three earthquake events which represents Semarang fault earthquake scenarios and developed from earthquake events with magnitude from 6.3 to 6.9 Mw and the maximum distance of building to earthquake epicentre 15 Km. Based on the floor deformation and the drift ratio results calculated using dynamic analysis, the building is predicted has the capability on resisting earthquake scenarios up to a maximum magnitude 7 Mw with minimum epicentre distance 10 Km.

Development of surface acceleration time histories is important for dynamic analysis of structure design and evaluation. Acceleration time histories usually developed from seismograph records due to specific earthquake event. Following the research conducted by Team for Revision of Seismic Hazard Maps of Indonesia 2010 and 2016, Lasem fault and Semarang fault are two closest and dangerous shallow crustal fault earthquake sources which must be taken into account for seismic mitigation of Semarang. This paper presents the development two components surface acceleration time histories for Semarang caused by Semarang fault earthquake scenarios, with magnitude from 6 Mw to 7 Mw and maximum epicentre distance 15 Km. This research was performed by conducting deterministic hazard analysis, response spectral matching and site response analysis to obtain a pair of modified acceleration time histories. Site response analysis was performed by conducting 30 meters soil deposit model by taking the assumption that the position of bedrock elevation is 30 meters below the surface layer. Modified acceleration time histories were developed from a pair time histories (North-South/NS and East-West/EW direction) collected from worldwide historical earthquakes. Modified time histories were developed due to limited time histories data caused by Semarang fault earthquake source.

Preliminary results from a series of blast tests within a buried pipeline are reported. The paper is mainly focused on the characterization of the site, providing an insight into the effects of different basting events in terms of soil mechanical parameters. The blasts have been monitored by means of accelerometers embedded in the ground and placed on the ground surface. The recorded acceleration time histories show a strong attenuation as the wave travels away from the source.

Research on seismic microzonation of Semarang is still ongoing. The first seismic microzonation research for this area was performed on 2015. Seismic microzonation map was developed by implementing deterministic 1-D site response analysis at 190 boring locations. Lasem fault was considered to be the main earthquake source which taken into account for seismic microzonation research of Semarang. The second research for developing seismic microzonation map was performed on 2016. Following the research conducted by Team for Updating Seismic Hazard Maps of Indonesia 2016, Rawapening Fault, Ungaran Fault, Weleri Fault, Demak Fault and Semarang Fault are five new shallow crustal fault earthquake sources identified in this research. This paper presents the development of seismic risk microzonation map caused by Semarang fault earthquake scenarios with maximum 6.9 Mw. Deterministic 1-D site response analysis was performed at 288 boring locations for developing seismic risk microzonation map. This research was performed by implementing response spectral matching and site propagation analysis. Due to inadequate data caused by Semarang fault earthquake, response spectral matching was implemented in this research to obtain modified acceleration time histories. All acceleration time histories were developed from five different earthquakes with magnitude 6.05 – 6.9 Mw and maximum epicentre distance 15 Km.

Recent developments in performance-based analyses and the high performance of computational facilities have led to an increased trend for utilizing nonlinear time-history analysis in seismic evaluation of the performance of structures. One of the crucial issues of such analysis is the selection of appropriate acceleration time histories set that satisfy design code requirements at a specific site. In literature, there are three sources of acceleration time histories: 1) recorded accelerograms in real earthquakes scaled to match design code spectrum/uniform hazard spectra/conditional mean spectrum, 2) artificial records generated from white noise spectra to satisfy design code spectrum, and 3) synthetic records obtained from seismological models. Due to the increase of available strong ground motion database, using and scaling real recorded accelerograms is becoming one of the most contemporary research issues in this field. In this study, basic methodologies and criteria for selecting strong ground motion time histories are discussed. Design code requirements for scaling are summarized for ASCE/SEI-7-10, EC8 and Turkish Seismic Codes. Examples for scaling earthquake records to uniform hazard spectra are provided.

Responses of experienced pilots and aerial observers were studied in simulated low-altitude, high-speed (LAHS) flight. The pilots “flew” three-hour surveillance missions at airspeeds of .4M and .9M in different degrees of simulated atmospheric turbulence. Flying ability decreased from .4 to .9M; however, intensity of vertical accelerations did not seem to affect flying ability except at the most severe levels. Target identification was unimpaired by either turbulence or airspeed. The observers also flew three-hour missions while experiencing acceleration time histories recorded from the pilot's flights. Target identification deteriorated as airspeed increased from 0.4 to 0.9 Mach. Gust intensity did not affect performance of any of their tasks. Performance efficiency on all tasks did not deteriorate from beginning to end of the missions of both pilots and observers.

Deterministic Seismic Hazard

Abstract. In performance-based seismic design, ground-motion time histories are needed for analyzing dynamic responses of nonlinear structural systems. However, the number of strong-motion data at design level is often limited. In order to analyze seismic performance of structures, ground-motion time histories need to be either selected from recorded strong-motion database, or numerically simulated using stochastic approaches. In this paper, a detailed procedure to select proper acceleration time histories from the Next Generation Attenuation (NGA) database for several cities in Taiwan is presented. Target response spectra are initially determined based on a local ground motion prediction equation under representative deterministic seismic hazard analyses. Then several suites of ground motions are selected for these cities using the Design Ground Motion Library (DGML), a recently proposed interactive ground-motion selection tool. The selected time histories are representatives of the regional seismic hazard, and should be beneficial to earthquake studies when comprehensive seismic hazard assessments and site investigations are yet available. Note that this method is also applicable to site-specific motion selections with the target spectra near the ground surface considering the site effect.
