摘要：This paper analyzes the seismicity in Bohai Sea,introducing a shape factor K to characterize the seismic risk distribution in sub-regions of the sea. Based on the seismic design ground motions for 46 platforms located in the Bohai Sea,a statistical analysis was performed for different peak ground acceleration (PGA) ratios at two different probability levels. In accordance with the two-stage design method,a scheme of two seismic design levels is proposed,and two seismic design objectives are established respectively for the strength level earthquake and the ductility level earthquake. By analogy with and comparison to the Chinese seismic design code for buildings,it is proposed that the probability level for the strength level earthquake and ductility level earthquake have a return period of 200 and 1000 - 2500 years,respectively. The validity of these proposed values is discussed. Finally,the PGAs corresponding to these two probability levels are calculated for different sub-regions of the Bohai Sea.

摘要：Longxi earthquake was the only earthquake example, which ZHANG Heng＇s Seismometer had detected. Therefore this event attracted the attention of the academic circle and also served as crucial evidence to examine the rationality of the reconstructed model of the seismometer. But for a long time, owing to the fact that the Jincheng-Longxi earthquake on February 28, AD 138 was mistaken as the event went against the historical records, it was refuted by the researches of both in China and abroad. By making careful textual research of historical records, especially by analyzing the description of Longxi earthquake of Houhan Shu, by studying the historical background exposed by historical literatures at that time, ZHANG Heng＇s biography, his poems and place names of Han Dynasty, by comparing five earthquakes occurred in Qing Dynasty and their attenuation of seismic intensity, the conclusion can be drawn that the Longxi earthquake should take place on December 13, AD 134 （the third year of Yangjia reign）. As a rough assessment, the epicenter was in Tianshui area and the magnitude was about 7. Due to the political corruption and inability to scientifically explain earthquake phenomenon at the end of Eastern Han Dynasty, a tragedy occurred during the later years of ZHANG Heng＇s life that had direct relations with the earthquake successively occurred in AD 133 and AD 134 after invention of seismometer in AD 132. In order to analyze the ground motion at Lingtai caused by the event in AD 134, the digital broad-band seismic records of three Longxi earthquakes in recent years recorded by Luoyang seismic station are used. The numerical modelings are made from three aspects of seismic magnitude definition, digital broad-band seismograms and empirical Green＇s function method. The results have shown that the maximum horizontal displacement at Lingtai is between 6-8 mm, and the maximum acceleration is less than 10^-2 m/s^2. These results have played an important role in quantitative te

摘要：With the massive growth of the seismic data, it is required a new method to manage them. In this paper, the design method will be reported about relational database based on tree structure. Comparing with other designs, it is not only simpler and easier to organize data, but also can simplify the design process of the database. This method has been used to design database of the earthquake monitor center station of the earthquake monitoring system for the Yangtze River Three Gorges Project and has shown good results.

摘要：On the basis of the study of volcanic products during 1199-1200AD eruption of Baitou Mountain (Baitoushan), the released volatile content was estimated by comparing Cl, F, S, H2O concentrations of undegassed glass inclusions with those of degassed matrix glasses. The calculations show that volatile yields, released from the melt, are 109.88×106 ton of HCI, 196.80×106 ton of HF, 1477.84×106 ton of H2O, 23.14×106 ton of SO2, which could have formed 35.43×106 ton of H2SO4 aerosol in the atmosphere. They could have substantial effect on paleoclimate and paleo-environment.

摘要：The Jinsha River runs across the Hengduanshan north-south tectonic zone where neotectonism was relatively strong, accompanied by various geologic hazards. In this case, it seems necessary to make a quantitative assessment and grading of the engineering geological environment for the planning and development of hydropower projects on the Jinsha River.

摘要：The earthquake environment of far field earthquake effects or near field earthquake effects are required to be considered in the Building Code (GBJ11-89), and a method to determine near field and far field earthquake is proPosed based on the results of deterministic seismic zoning map(1977). The Seismic intensity Zoning Map of China (1990),which is currently used in China, was compiled using probabilistic approach. So the method determining the far field earthquake based on deterministic zoning method is not suitable. A new method is providedin this paper under the consideration of the essence of the near field and far field earthquake and the aPProach ofthe probabilistic seismic hazard analysis. The related problems of how to use the Building Code (GBJll-89) andthe Seismic intensity Zoning Map of China(1990) are solved.

摘要：The usually calculated exceedance probability curves of ground motion are reduced as cumulative probability curves of normal distribution on some assumptions in this paper. These curves clearly displayed the variation of curve shape with the variance of attenuation relation and its physical implication. Similar investigation is also made on uncertainties of hypocenter locations and magnitudes of future earthquakes. The larger the uncertainty,the flatter the exceedance probability curve is. In a broad sense, the less people know future earthquakes, the flatter is the curve. Due to the rich or poor data sets available, the uncertainties of attenuation relation are different from region to region. The acceleration attenuation relations in these regions with no enough strong earthquake records can be obtained by conversion from other region, but with larger uncertainty. The uncertainty contains systematic difference between the two regions in addition to common stochastic error. A method to check and adjust the converted attenuation relation by using the local data is proposed in this paper. If the uncertainty of attenuation relation is too large, the result of seismic hazard assessment may be unaccepted *** order to realize that the structures do not collapse in large earthquakes, be repairable under moderate ones and without destruction in small earthquakes, this paper suggests that it may be reasonable to get the first and the third levels of aseismic design parameters by some empirical relation on the basis of the second level not by fixing the risk probability levels (63%, 10% and 3%). A particular aseismic design criterion is not only a balance between economic cost and seismic risk but also suited to the human's knowledge of nature.

摘要：Current design criteria and prineiples of earthquake engineering design are reviewed,including safety factors, probabilistic approach,and two-level and muhi-level functional design *** modern multi-functional idea is discussed in greater *** designing a structure,its resistance to and the intensity of the earthquake action are considered. The consequence of failure of the structure is considered only through a rough and empirical factor of importance,ranging usually from 1.0 to *** paper suggests a method of'consequence-based design,'which considers the consequences of malfunctioning instead of simply an importance *** main argument for this method is that damage to a structure located in different types of societies may have very different consequences,which are depeudant on its value and usefulness to the society and the seismicity in the region.
