简介：本文通过对记录到2015年天津港＂8·12＂爆炸的32个台站的三分量数字地震波形进行倒谱分析,得到了以下结论：（1）2个主要爆炸的发生时间间隔约为32.3s;（2）爆炸-2发生在爆炸-1的西北侧约353°处;（3）依据这些记录的倒谱,无法判定在爆炸-1前是否还存在微小的爆炸。以上结论均与前人研究成果吻合。由于倒谱叠加采用的是全波形,对滤波频带不敏感,因此,在检测发生在同一地点的多次爆炸或其它类似事件（如核爆）上有一定的优势。

简介：2015年4月25日尼泊尔廓尔喀地区发生Ms8.1级地震,本文分析了加德满都强震台站的强地震动记录特征,其水平向地震动表现为明显的脉冲地震动,脉冲周期约为6.0s,反映了近场地震动的方向性效应;处于深厚沉积层上的加德满都谷地对地震动有一定的放大作用,且主震的场地峰值频率向低频段偏移,出现明显的场地非线性反应;采用随机有限断层方法模拟的空间地震动分布与宏观地震烈度图符合较好,可以为分析宏观震害提供参考;通过与尼泊尔设计反应谱对比,得出在短周期与长周期段,加德满都台站的水平向地震动的反应谱远高于设计反应谱,说明即使严格按照尼泊尔建筑抗震规范设计施工的建筑结构也难以抵御此次地震的破坏.

简介：2015年7月3日新疆皮山Ms6．5级地震灾区地处塔里木盆地南缘，该地自然条件恶劣，经济极为落后，灾区农村的民房除了抗震安居工程建设的房屋外，还有大量抗震性能较差的民居，在地震中受损严重，经济损失较大。灾区大部分位于山前溢出带，地下水位浅、地基土层软弱等场地条件对地震动有放大作用，震害影响范围较大。灾后重建中应继续加大安居富民工程的经费投入力度。灾区北部人口密集，地基土层软弱，工程地质条件差，建议在今后的安居富民建设中加强地基处理。
