Purpose
|
To measure the shear-wave velocity profile of the near-surface materials at
strong motion stations that recorded the 28 September 2004 M 6.0 Parkfield
earthquake.
|
|
|
Information to be Derived
|
One-dimensional shear-wave velocity profiles at 53 strong motion sites near
Parkfield, CA.
Estimate the shear-wave velocity profiles with the Spectral Analysis of Surface
Waves (SASW) method.
|
|
|
Summary
|
The CMG surface wave shaker trailer is a parallel array of mass shakers - an
array of up to eight APS Dynamic Model 400 shaker and amplifier units, powered
by two generators and controlled by a spectral analyzer.
|
|
|
Notes
|
Site numbers 807-859. The SASW method is a noninvasive method that indirectly
estimates the
shear-wave veolcity at depth from variations in the Reyleigh wave phase
velocity at the surface.
To address the uncertainty associated with these measurements, we compare the
SASW profiles to surface-source downhole-receiver (SSDR) profiles at four sites.
Three of the four SSDR sites are in close agreement with the adjacent SASW site,
while the SASW profile is considerably slower than the SSDR profile at one site.
