Seismic Response Analysis Along The Coastal Area Of Bengkulu During The September 2007 Earthquake, Lindung Zalbuin Mase Apr 2018

Seismic Response Analysis Along The Coastal Area Of Bengkulu During The September 2007 Earthquake, Lindung Zalbuin Mase

Makara Journal of Technology

A strong earthquake of 8.4 Mw occurred at the Sumatra Subduction Zone in September 12, 2007. The area that underwent the impact of the earthquake was located along the coastal area of the Bengkulu Province. A seismic ground response study was then performed with reference to the event. Several site investigations, including standard penetration test and shear wave velocity tests, were conducted to understand the subsoil condition. The data were used to analyze a ground response during the earthquake. The amplification factor of each site was obtained, and a comparison of the spectral accelerations was performed. The results showed that …


Uplift Of Shoreline Regions On Pagai Island Due To The September 12, 2007 Mw 8.4 Earthquake Captured By Sar Image, Ashar Muda Lubis Dec 2015

Uplift Of Shoreline Regions On Pagai Island Due To The September 12, 2007 Mw 8.4 Earthquake Captured By Sar Image, Ashar Muda Lubis

Makara Journal of Technology

At least 25 people were killed by the September 12, 2007 Mw 8.4 Bengkulu earthquake, and many buildings were destroyed in Bengkulu and West Sumatra provinces. It is very important to estimate the earth surface deformation due to the earthquake to understand the rupture size and its process. The aim of this research is to estimate the shoreline change and vertical displacement on Pagai Island associated with the September 12, 2007 Mw 8.4 Bengkulu earthquake. The intensity of ALOS-PALSAR satellite images is used to access the pattern of displacement. The result shows that Pagai Island demonstrated huge uplift due to …


Benchmark For Country-Level Earthquake Strong-Motion Instrumentation Program, Widjojo Adi Prakoso, I Nyoman Sukanta Nov 2012

Benchmark For Country-Level Earthquake Strong-Motion Instrumentation Program, Widjojo Adi Prakoso, I Nyoman Sukanta

Makara Journal of Technology

An empirical study to develop benchmark models at country-level to assess the suggested number of earthquake strongmotion stations based on a framework encompassing geographic, demographic, and socio-economic parameters is reported. The models are to provide a working estimate of the required number of stations for improving the strongmotion instrumentation program of Indonesia. National earthquake strong-motion networks of New Zealand, Japan, Taiwan, Iran, Turkey, and Italy were used as the references. The parameter proposed is the number of stations in land area of 1,000 km2, and three models based on the exponential regression analysis are presented as functions of population density, …


Earthquake Damage Intensity Relationship For Residential Houses In West Sumatra, Febrin Anas Ismail, Abdul Hakam, Fauzan Fauzan Apr 2012

Earthquake Damage Intensity Relationship For Residential Houses In West Sumatra, Febrin Anas Ismail, Abdul Hakam, Fauzan Fauzan

Makara Journal of Technology

The Sumatra 30 September 2009 earthquake has damaged hundred thousand buildings in West Sumatra Province. The earthquake is located in 100 km offshore of Padang City, the Capital City of the province. Survey has been conducted to assess the damage of the building in few days after the earthquake. In this survey, the damage of buildings are categorised into 3 level that are heavily, moderate and slightly damages. This paper explores the level damage of building and then the intensity of the shaking in the affected area. Then based on the coordinate of every building location, the buildings are scattered …
