North Bengkulu district has an area prone to earthquakes, because this area is very closed to the Sumatra subduction zone to the Eurasian tectonic plate. Coastal area in this region is experiencing with the very fast erosion. This is thought to have relation with earthquake-prone zones. This study aims to find the relationship between Ground Shear Strain (GSS) and rate of erosion in the coastal area of North Bengkulu. The data of coastal erosion rate was obtained by overlaying shoreline in 1947 and 2012. The GSS can be obtained by multiplying Seismic Vulnerability Index (SVI) and Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) values around the shoreline. Seismic Vulnerability Index was obtained by processing microseismic data acquired using three component in short period of seismometers. The PGA was obtained from the historical earthquake and calculated by using Fukushima-Tanaka equation. The results show that the value of GSS varies between 0.0001 to 0.0055, and the SVI values is ranging from 1.2 to 16.1. In addition, we estimated that PGA value is 92 to 120 and the rate of erosion between 3.6 up to 5.8 m/yr. GSS value for each type of coastal is 0.00046 for the fine sandy beach flat, 0.0043 for flat coastal muddy, 0.0001 for flat rocky beaches, 0.0006 for sandy beaches to rugged, 0.0003 for steep rocky lava beach, 0.0014 for steep rocky coast of for clay, 0.0011 for bertufa steep sandy beach stones, and 0.0014 for the steep rocky shore tuffaceous clay. It is found that the GSS value depends on the type of coastal. In this case, flat coastal muddy show highest effect on the GSS. Both SVI and GSS can be estimated to be a quadratic relation to the erosion rate.

In 2018, Lombok Island was hit by a series of destructive earthquakes. According to Indonesian Meteo- rological, Climatological, and Geophysical Agency data, about 1,973 felt earthquakes (M > 3) which shaken Lombok were recorded during August 2018 with three earthquakes with the largest magnitude of 6.9 Mw, 6.8 Mw, and 6.2 Mw. National Board for Disaster Management reported about 555 deaths, 1,833 people injured, and 186,010 houses damaged as a result of Lombok earthquake on August 5th, 2018. A number of seismometers were placed on Lombok Island from August 3rd, 2018 to October 19th, 2018 to monitor the aftershock events. There are 17 stations that record seismicity in Lombok consisting of 10 broadband sensors and 7 short period sensors. In this study, we used the Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR) method to analyze the risk of earthquake in the Lombok region. The basic concept of this method is to do a comparison between the horizontal component spectrum and the vertical component spectrum of a wave, where theoretically the particle movement of the horizontal component is greater than the particle movement of the vertical component on soft ground, whereas on the hard ground both components (horizontal and vertical) will be similar. H/V curve obtained from earthquake record- ings (Earthquake Horizontal-to-Vertical Ratio/EHVR) and H/V curve obtained from microtremor recordings (Microtremor Horizontal-to-Vertical Ratio/MHVR) shows good agreement and high correlation. Empirical correction of EMR (Earthquake-to-Microtremor Ratio) managed to decrease the difference of estimation of predominant frequency and amplification factor between EHVR and MHVR. Predominant frequency, amplification, and seismic vulnerability map agree with the geological condition of Lombok Island, where high value of amplification and seismic vulnerability was found on soft and thick ground. This study conclude that the maximum ground acceleration and the construction of the building should also considered when one wants to investigate the effect of an earthquake to the damage occurred, beside the site effects.

AbstractA hybrid seismic fragility model for territorial-scale seismic vulnerability assessment of masonry buildings is developed and presented in this paper. The method combines expert-judgment and mechanical approaches to derive typological fragility curves for Italian residential masonry building stock. The first classifies Italian masonry buildings in five different typological classes as function of age of construction, structural typology, and seismic behaviour and damaging of buildings observed following the most severe earthquakes occurred in Italy. The second, based on numerical analyses results conducted on building prototypes, provides all the parameters necessary for developing fragility functions. Peak-Ground Acceleration (PGA) at Ultimate Limit State attainable by each building’s class has been chosen as an Intensity Measure to represent fragility curves: three types of curve have been developed, each referred to mean, maximum and minimum value of PGAs defined for each building class. To represent the expected damage scenario for increasing earthquake intensities, a correlation between PGAs and Mercalli-Cancani-Sieber macroseismic intensity scale has been used and the corresponding fragility curves developed. Results show that the proposed building’s classes are representative of the Italian masonry building stock and that fragility curves are effective for predicting both seismic vulnerability and expected damage scenarios for seismic-prone areas. Finally, the fragility curves have been compared with empirical curves obtained through a macroseismic approach on Italian masonry buildings available in literature, underlining the differences between the methods.

Earthquake and tsunami disasters always bring negative impacts and losses for humans. The high frequency of earthquake disasters in Sulawesi and the massive impact of destruction and damage to infrastructure, loss of homes and property, and death of people are partly due to the lack of knowledge of this potential disaster by the surrounding community. Therefore, it is necessary to study the potential for earthquake and tsunami disasters on Sulawesi Island, and Lesson Learned about the Earthquake Disaster that has occurred in past. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive analysis design of secondary data obtained through a comprehensive literature review. The results showed that Sulawesi Island has a high potential for earthquake disasters, which is in the historical records of disasters, some of these earthquakes were accompanied by tsunami waves. The lesson that can be drawn from the earthquake in West Sulawesi is the potential for aftershocks after the opening earthquake and the main earthquake. In addition, the urgency of building earthquake-resistant housing structural mitigation is the key to safety during an earthquake. The post-earthquake recovery program in West Sulawesi requires further studies related to soil classification surveys, soil dominant periods, and soil seismic vulnerability index, as part of rebuilding a better and safer post-disaster area.
