Abstract

Here, taking ground motion peak values PGA and PGV synthesized by 3-D vectors after 0.1-10 Hz band-pass filtering as the prediction target parameters, using the data of 3 seconds after triggering P wave of Japan K-net strong earthquake network, based on the classic machine learning method in artificial intelligence-support vector machine (SVM), a ground motion peak value prediction model was constructed by selecting 8 feature parameters including acceleration amplitude Pa, velocity amplitude Pv, displacement amplitude Pd, Fourier spectrum amplitude AMmax, velocity square integral IV2, destruction intensity DI, cumulative absolute velocity CAV and Arias intensity Ia. Results showed that compared with the conventional Pd prediction model, using the constructed SVM prediction model for PGA and PGV, the predicted values calculated with testing data set and data sets of 2 earthquake cases selected randomly and the actual measured values are closer to a 1∶1 relationship, the errors for the predicted values of PGA and PGV are not affected by the change in epicenter distance; phenomena of under-estimation and over-estimation of PGA and PGV during prediction are improved; the constructed SVM prediction model can be used to predict ground motion peak values for in situ earthquake warning, i.e., to predict the instrument seismic intensity.
