West Java is an area located in the subduction zone of two major plates of the world, Indo-Australian and Eurasian plates that cause high tectonic activity. This is marked by the number of earthquake events in this area. The accumulation of earthquake-induced shocks produces a ground movement. The ground movement provides various effects such as landslides, road fractures, cracks in walls and so on. These effects need to be addressed so that any activity to be performed on the surface can take place properly. There are some ground movement activity. One of them is Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA). This research was conducted to compare two models of Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA), Faccioli and Donovan. These models based on 50-years of catalog earthquakes event in period 1965-2015 on West Java with Magnitude ≥ 5 SR and the hypocentre ≤ 80 km. The results of this research will be compared with the 2010 Indonesian earthquake map.
This research was conducted to determine and mapping the value of the PGA in Indonesian territory using two empirical models of attenuation equations from the transition of the second generation to the third generation. The research was conducted by applying the Frisenda’s and Luzi’s. The calculation is based on a catalog of earthquakes that occurred from 1 January 1970 - 31 December 2020 with a variable earthquake magnitude ≥ 5 SR and hypocentre depth ≤ 60 km (destructive earthquake). The calculation results in the maximum value of PGA respectively 0.6613 g for Frisenda, and 12.257 g in the Luzi. The maximum PGA value in Luzi model is the effects of the Andaman Islands earthquake on December 26th, 2004, with a magnitude of 9,1 SR, and the maximum PGA value in the Frisenda model is the effects of the Flying Fish Cove, Christmas Island earthquake on June 13th, 2013, with the magnitude 6.7 SR. In general, these two maps show different or even opposite patterns.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
