3 3 Introduction & Bachground For deterministic evaluation: (scenario-based evaluation) Not taking account of uncertainty, that is, ε i is deterministic. For probabilistic evaluation: (probability-based evaluation) Not taking account of the spatial correlation of seismic ground motion, that is the correlation betweenε i and ε j.

5 5 Infrastructures and Portfolio of Buildings For the seismic design of spatially-spread infrastructures, the reliability of the systems which is associated with the partially correlated failure events should be reasonably taken into account. In the portfolio analysis of building assets, simultaneous damages of buildings located in different sites are of major concern.

6 6 Past Research Either perfect correlation or no correlation of the uncertainty of GM is assumed in the past researches on the risk management. So far, only Takada et al. study (Takada and Shimomura, 2003, Wang and Takada, 2005) on macro-spatial correlation based on the past earthquakes is available. Using the data of K-NET and KiK-NET (around 2000 stations throughout Japan) developed recently in Japan, the macro- spatial correlation analysis for ground motion intensity can be done.

7 7 Stochastic Prediction of Seismic GM 1. the Annaka attenuation relation (1997) 2. the Midorikawa-Ohtake attenuation relation (2002) 3. Amplification factor (AVR) Where: The uncertainty is suggested as 0.37. Variable of fault type

8 8 Uncertainty of Ground Motion Intensity The uncertainty of seismic ground motion intensity can be decomposed into inter-event and intra-event uncertainty. Mean Trend Inter-event uncertainty Perfect correlation Intra-event uncertainty Auto-covariance function C LL Observed This study concerns about the intra-event uncertainty, and proposed is its spatial correlation model.

9 9 Modeling of Macro-Spatial Correlation of GM - Seismic Ground motion intensity A(x) at location x is assumed to the product of mean property T(x) and random component R(x) A(x) = T(x) R(x) T(x): mean property predicted from mean empirical attenuation law R(x): homogeneous 2D random field characterized by mean and auto- correlation function This assumption implies that spatial correlation of R(x) can be defined in terms of relative distance between two different locations L(x) = log( A(x) / T(x) ) Note that L(x) implies the logarithmic deviation of observed record from the mean attenuation law

10 10 Auto-correlation Function & Homogeneity Logarithmic deviation: Auto-covariance function: Assumption: Logarithmic deviation L(x) constitutes a homogeneous 2-D stochastic field so that the auto-covariance function C LL (h) is only a function of separation distance h. X L(x) –For simplicity, the moving average curve and the correlation coefficient ρ are used to examine homogeneity of the logarithmic deviation, and the dependency between the logarithmic deviation and distance.

11 11 Proposal of Macro-Spatial Correlation Model Auto-covariance function: Normalized auto-covariance function Macro-spatial correlation function: b : correlation length, R LL (h=b) = 1/e R LL (0) = 1, and R LL (∞) = 0. N(h) : the number of pairs of sites (x a, x b ) that meet the condition : h – ∆h/2 < |x a – x b | ≤ h + ∆h/2 ;
