Study of Earthquake Data for Cumulative Absolute Velocity and Acceleration Peak Value

Article Preview

Abstract:

Characteristics of cumulative absolute velocity parameter (CAV) of Lushan earthquake is discussed and presented in this paper. Based on a brief analysis of the background information of the Lushan earthquake, the value of CAV which is calculated from the recorded data of the Lushan earthquake is compared with the commonly used value peak ground acceleration (PGA). Accordingly, the relationship between the CAV and the PGA is studied, and 3 CAV/PGA ratio charts in 3 different sub-directions are obtained. Then the linear fitting operation and the polynomial fitting operation are performed to analyze the potential discipline and characteristics thereof. The applicability of utilizing the CAV parameter in earthquake observation systems is further studied in this paper, and the CAV parameter is cooperated with the currently used value PGA to provide the work of earthquake observation and emergency response with corresponding theoretical basis.
