Abstract The Lombok region is located around a complex tectonic zone with an Indo-Australian oceanic crust transition zone with Australian continental crust in the west and Sundanese arc in the east. This complexity makes some area in West Nusa Tenggara have a high level of earthquake vulnerability and to determine the potential level of seismic damage risk this study was conducted by analyzing Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) and Peak Ground Velocity (PGV) using earthquake data since 2000 - March 2020 with an intensity more than M4.5. Earthquake data are analyzed using the Yin-Min Yu formula to get the relationship between Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA), Peak Ground Velocity (PGV), and earthquake intensity, so areas with risk level of earthquake damage can be mapped as preliminary earthquake mitigation schemes. The results of the study show that the highest PGA value in West Nusa Tenggara is 74.73 gal at the bedrock and when it on the surface, the PGA value can increase due to amplification of local soil conditions. Likewise PGV value about 32.21 gal where this maximum value is located in East Lombok Regency and North Lombok Regency. According to the classification of PGA and PGV values, the study area has a potential high-risk level of earthquake damage.

Analysis of a peak ground acceleration value and earthquake intensity in Banten Province has been carried out using historical earthquake data from 2008 to 2018. This research aims to describe a prone area of the earthquake. The specification of data was a magnitude > 5 SR and the depth 0-70 km. The Donovan method was used to analyze peak ground acceleration value and the earthquake’s intensity. According to the data obtained, 31 earthquake points with a maximum earthquake strength occurred on October 16, 2019, with a depth of 10 km and a magnitude of  6.48 SR. This earthquake was located in Ujung Kulon with coordinates -6.81 LS and 105.113 BT. Based on data analysis result was obtained a peak ground acceleration value and the intensity of earthquake maximum in The Pandeglang Regency with a peak ground acceleration value was 211.56 cm/s2, and intensity of scale VIII and a large risk level of three. While a peak ground acceleration minimum is located in the South Tangerang City was 62.82 cm/s2 with a scale of intensity VII and a moderate risk level.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui seismisitas dan zonasi di daerah Provinsi Jawa Barat. Seismisitas dapat di ketahui dari peta seismisitas berdasarkan kedalaman dan magnitudo, untuk memperoleh peta seismisitas di daerah Provinsi Jawa Barat yaitu dengan menggunakan data gempa bumi tektonik harian atau realtime dengan periode terjadinya gempa bumi pada tahun 2000-2015, yang bersumber dari BMKG (Badan Meteorologi Klimatologi dan Geofisika) Klas 1 Bandung. Data gempa terdiri dari tanggal, waktu  terjadinya gempa, lintang, bujur, kedalaman dan magnitudo (M ≥ 4.5 SR), data yang ada di proses dengan menggunakan Software Arcgis 10.3 sehingga menjadi peta seismisitas yang telah di klasifikasikan berdasarkan kedalaman dan magnitudo gempa bumi. Zonasi di daerah Provinsi Jawa Barat di peroleh dengan menentukan nilai Percepatan Tanah Maksimum (Peak Ground Acceleration) yang terbagi kedalam 18 kabupaten, dan menentukan nilai PGA dan intensitas gempa di setiap Kabupaten, adapun cara untuk memperoleh nilai PGA dan intensitas gempa yaitu dengan melakukan proses perhitungan data gempa yang ada, dengan menggunakan metode Gutenberg Richter.

This study aims to determine the seismicity and zoning in the area of West Java Province. Seismicity can be in the know of seismicity map based on the depth and magnitude, to obtain the map of seismicity in the area of West Java province is by using daily tectonic earthquake data or realtime with the period of the earthquake in the year 2000-2015, which is sourced from BMKG (Meteorology and Geophysics) Class 1 Bandung. Seismic data consists of the date, the time of the earthquake, latitude, longitude, depth and magnitude (M ≥ 4.5 SR), the data that is in the process of using ArcGIS 10.3 software so that a map of seismicity which has been classified based on the depth and magnitude of the earthquake. Zoning in the area of West Java province was obtained by determining the value of the Acceleration of Land Maximum (Peak Ground Acceleration), divided into 18 districts, and determine the value of PGA and intensity of earthquakes in each district, as for how to obtain the value of PGA and earthquake intensity by performing the calculation process existing seismic data, using Gutenberg Richter. Thus obtained conclusions based on maps of seismicity in distrubusi get earthquakes amounted to 792 earthquakes, and earthquake zoning in the area of West Java Province based on the value of the PGA of 25-29 gal and earthquake intensity value of V.Keywords: Zoning earthquake, seismicity , Software ArcGIS 10.3., Methods Gutenberg Richter earthquake intensity.

Abstract. In this work, the surface ground motion that occurs during an earthquake in ground sections having different topographic forms has been examined with one and two dynamic site response analyses. One-dimensional analyses were undertaken using the Equivalent-Linear Earthquake Response Analysis (EERA) program based on the equivalent linear analysis principle and the Deepsoil program which is able to make both equivalent linear and nonlinear analyses and two-dimensional analyses using the Plaxis 8.2 software. The viscous damping parameters used in the dynamic site response analyses undertaken with the Plaxis 8.2 software were obtained using the DeepSoil program. In the dynamic site response analyses, the synthetic acceleration over a 475-year return period representing the earthquakes in Istanbul was used as the basis of the bedrock ground motion. The peak ground acceleration obtained different depths of soils and acceleration spectrum values have been compared. The surface topography and layer boundaries in the 5-5' cross section which cuts across the study area west to east were selected in order to examine the effect of the land topography and layer boundaries on the analysis results, and were flattened and compared with the actual status. The analysis results showed that the characteristics of the surface ground motion change in relation to the varying local soil conditions and land topography.

The measured vertical peak ground acceleration was larger than the horizontal peak ground acceleration. It is essential to consider the vertical seismic effect in seismic fragility evaluation of large-space underground structures. In this research, an approach is presented to construct fragility curves of large-space underground structures considering the vertical seismic effect. In seismic capacity, the soil-underground structure pushover analysis method which considers the vertical seismic loading is used to obtain the capacity curve of central columns. The thresholds of performance levels are quantified through a load-drift backbone curve model. In seismic demand, it is evaluated through incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) method under the excitation of horizontal and vertical acceleration, and the soil-structure-interaction and ground motion characteristics are also considered. The IDA results are compared in terms of peak ground acceleration and peak ground velocity. To construct the fragility curves, the evolutions of performance index versus the increasing earthquake intensity are performed, considering related uncertainties. The result indicates that if we ignore the vertical seismic effect to the fragility assessment of large-space underground structures, the exceedance probabilities of damage of large-space underground structures will be underestimated, which will result in an unfavorable assessment result.

A network of realtime intensity meters is being established in different parts of the Philippines under a Japan-Philippines cooperation. The intensity meters can record and transmit on a near real-time basis the site-specific levels of groundshaking in terms of macroseismic intensity, peak ground acceleration and peak ground velocity. The intensity meters evaluate earthquake effects using the Philippine earthquake intensity scale – PHIVOLCS Earthquake Intensity Scale (PEIS). Deployment of the instruments was planned according to an optimum distribution with respect to active earthquake generators and vulnerable communities. All manned seismic stations of PHIVOLCS were equipped with an intensity meter while the rest was deployed in relevant disaster risk reduction and management centers. In its initial operation which started in 2012, the network captured several significant earthquakes such as theMw7.2 in Bohol in 2013.
