- Abstract:
-
The MS6.5 earthquake occurred in Ludian County of Yunnan Province,2014 caused severe damage to a large number of buildings on the pluvial fan,resulting in seriously personnel casualty and the economic loss.However,the damage of buildings on the river terrace was relatively lightly.Therefore,to find out the reason for this differences of damage level,we deployed high density observation array with the interval of 50-200m in the Longtoushan Town to measure microtremor continuously,and used the HVSR(Horizontal to vertical spectral ratio)method to get the predominant frequency and amplification factor of the site to study the site earthquake effect.We found out that the result of HVSR method was consistent with the outcomes from drill data.The HVSR predominant frequencies on the pluvial fan were between 1.5~5.0 Hz,while the ones on the river terrace were between 6.0~10 Hz,and the sites with relatively small predominant frequencies(less than 5 Hz)were highly consistent with the worst damaged area.
