Climate change and Urban Vulnerability in Africa Assessing vulnerability of urban systems, population and goods in relation to natural and man-made disasters in Africa “Training on the job” Course on Hazards, Risk and (Bayesian) multi-risk assessement Napoli, 24.10.2011 – 11.11.2011 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer 1 Earth Structure Crust: The uppermost 5-70 km of the earth. There are two types of crust: continental and oceanic. Continental crust ranges from 10-70 km thick and has a composition approximating that of granite. Oceanic crust, on the other hand, is approximately 5 km thick and has a composition similar to basalt, making it significantly denser than continental crust. Mantle: The middle portion of the interior of the earth, starting below the crust at 5-70 km below the earth’s surface and continuing to a depth of 2900 km. Core The innermost layer of the earth, which starts at ~2900 km depth. The core is composed mainly of iron and consists of a molten outer core and a solid inner core. 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 2 Plate Tectonics Subduction zones 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Mid-Ocean ridges Slide 3 Plate Tectonics Map showing earthquakes from 2003-2011 with magnitude greater than 3.

Values depend upon the distance to the earthquake, with the highest intensities being around the epicentral area. Data gathered from people who have experienced the quake are used to determine an intensity value for their location. The Mercalli (Intensity) scale originated with the widely-used simple ten-degree Rossi-Forel scale, which was revised by Italian vulcanologist Giuseppe Mercalli in 1884 and 1906. 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 16 Earthquake intensity Mercalli intensity scale Damage map – Irpinia Earthquake, 1980 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 17 Earthquake intensity Richter magnitude His inspiration was the apparent magnitude scale used in astronomy to describe the brightness of stars and other celestial objects. Richter arbitrarily chose a magnitude 0 event to be an earthquake that would show a maximum combined horizontal displacement of 1 µm (0.00004 in) on a seismogram recorded using a Wood-Anderson torsion seismograph 100 km (62 mi) from the earthquake epicenter. This choice was intended to prevent negative magnitudes from being assigned. The smallest earthquakes that could be recorded and located at the time were of magnitude 3, approximately. However, the Richter scale has no lower limit, and sensitive modern seismographs now routinely record quakes with negative magnitudes. 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 18 Earthquake intensity Moment magnitude Fault moment M0 = m ∙ A ∙ D Average offset ≈ Slip [L] Rigidity G [F/L2] Fault area [L2] Moment Magnitude M0 [dyne cm] Kanamori 1977 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 19 Magnitude relationship In seismology, the Gutenberg–Richter law (GR law) expresses the relationship between the magnitude and total number of earthquakes in any given region and time period of at least that magnitude or Where N is the number of events having a magnitude > M; a and b are constants calibrated on a given set of events. 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 20 Magnitude relationship The constant b is typically equal to 1.0 in seismically active regions. This means that for every magnitude 4.0 event there will be 10 magnitude 3.0 quakes and 100 magnitude 2.0 quakes. There is some variation with b-values in the range 0.5 to 1.5 depending on the tectonic environment of the region. A notable exception is during earthquake swarms when the b-value can become as high as 2.5 indicating an even larger proportion of small quakes to large ones. A b-value significantly different from 1.0 may suggest a problem with the data set; e.g. it is incomplete or contains errors in calculating magnitude The a-value is of less scientific interest and simply indicates the total seismicity rate of the region. 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 21 Ground Motion prediction relations State-of-the-art estimates of expected ground motion at a given distance from an earthquake of a given magnitude are the second element of earthquake hazard assessments. These estimates are usually equations, called attenuation relationships, which express ground motion as a function of magnitude and distance (and occasionally other variables, such as type of faulting). Commonly assessed ground motions are maximum intensity, peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and several spectral accelerations (SA). Each ground motion mapped corresponds to a portion of the bandwidth of energy radiated from an earthquake. PGA and 0.2s SA correspond to short-period energy that will have the greatest effect on short-period structures (one-to two story). PGA values are directly related to the lateral forces that damage short period. Longer-period SA (1.0s, 2.0s, etc.) depict the level of shaking that will have the greatest effect on longer-period structures (10+ story buildings, bridges, etc.). Ground motion attenuation relationships may be determined in two different ways: empirically, using previously recorded ground motions, or theoretically, using seismological models to generate synthetic ground motions which account for the source, site, and path effects. There is overlap in these approaches, however, since empirical approaches fit the data to a functional form suggested by theory and theoretical approaches often use empirical data to determine some parameters. 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 22 Ground Motion prediction relations The ground motion at a site, for example Peak Ground Acceleration depends on the earthquake source, the seismic wave propagation and the site response. Earthquake source signifies the earthquake magnitude, the depth and the focal mechanism, the propagation depends mainly on the distance to the site. The site response deals with the local geology (site classification); it is the subject of microzonation. The basic functional (logarithmic) form for ground motion attenuation relationship is defined as (Reiter 1990) ln Y = ln b1 + ln f1(M) + ln f2(R) + ln f3(M,R) + ln f4(P) + ln e Where: Y is the strong motion parameter to be estimated (dependant variable), it is lognormal distributed; f1(M) is a function of the independent variable M, earthquake source size generally magnitude; f2(R) depends on the variable R, the seismogenic area source to site distance; f3(M,R) is a possible joint function between M and R (for example for an earthquake with big magnitude the seismogenic area is large and the source to site distance may be different); f4(P) are functions representing possible source and site effects (for example different style of faulting in the near field may generate different ground motions values Abrahamson and Shedlock (1997)); e is an error term representing the uncertainty in Y 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 23 Ground Motion prediction relations Sabetta e Pugliese (attenuation law for Italy) 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 24 Seismic zoning Punctual source: this typology of modeling it’s used for fault very deep or very far from the interest area. Linear source: this typology of modeling it’s used with hypothesis that all the point of the line can be fracture point with the same probability. Planar source: this typology of modeling it’s used with hypothesis that all the point of the line can be fracture point with the same probability. 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 25 PSHA Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analisis For each Seismic zones target is to evaluate the annual exceedance frequency of a given intensity trough the follow integral: 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 26 PSHA Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analisis Starting from the knowledge of Seismic Zone Typology, of Attenuation Law and G-R Law is possible to evaluate: Extension to more Seismic Zones 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 27 PSHA Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analisis To convert the annual rate of events to a probability, we consider the probability that the ground motion exceeds test level x at least once during a specific time interval. A standard assumption is that the occurrence of earthquake is a POISSONIAN process. For t=1 this probability is the annual hazard. Starting from previous relation is possible to obtain the Return Period of the generic event that has an exceedance probability of P in time t: 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 28 Deaggregation of Hazard The hazard curve gives the combined effect of all magnitudes and distances on the probability of exceeding a given ground motion level. Since all of the sources, magnitudes, and distances are mixed together, it is difficult to get an intuitive understanding of what is controlling the hazard from the hazard curve by itself. A common practice is to break the hazard back down into its contributions from different magnitude and distance pairs to provide insight into what events are the most important for the hazard. 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 29 Example Site and Event description The example site considered has two faults. Fault A, produces earthquakes with magnitude M=6 and distance R=10km from the site; and has an annual occurrence rate of l=0.01; we denote this earthquake Event A. Fault B produces earthquakes with magnitude M=8 and distance R=25km from the site, and has annual occurrence of l=0.002; we denote this earthquake Event B. Both events have strike slip mechanism. 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 30 Example PSHA Computation 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 31 Example Deaggregation of Events In this simplified site, each event (Eventj) corresponds to a single magnitude (mj) and distance (rj). The conditional probability that each event causes Sa>y is given by follow equation: 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 32 Example Deaggregation of Magnitude The deaggregation mean magnitude associated with a specific GMPM can be found using equation: Bold line 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 33 Example Deaggregation of Distance 23/05/2017 Fatemeh Jalayer Slide 34
