Delhi, National Capital Region (NCR) of India, falls in the seismic Zone IV (Zone factor 0.24) on the seismic zoning map prepared by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), and this region may experience devastating intensities in case of plausible moderate to the major earthquake in the vicinity. The strategic geological, geomorphological, and geographic characteristics make this seat of administrative power more vulnerable toward the earthquake disaster right from the ancient periods. Therefore, we study the impact of the M 6.0 earthquake sourced at Sohna fault in the neighborhood of the capital region by generating synthetic accelerograms through semiempirical envelop technique. The observed accelerograms of November 25, 2007 (\(M_{w}\) 4.7) earthquake have been modeled to utilize the reliability of the semiempirical approach. To analyze the actual scenario, the ground motions at the surface have been generated after the incorporation of the site effects because different soil conditions of NCR fascinate different degrees of damage in case of a destructive earthquake. As a result, the obtained peak ground acceleration (PGA) varies between 100 and 600 cm/s2, and some of the sites exhibit even higher PGA values being situated on the sediments of river-oriented plain areas and proximity of the source. The spatial distribution of estimated values of PGA and spectral accelerations at different periods show that sites in NCR like Delhi (600 cm/s2), Sonipat (633 cm/s2), Gurgaon (461 cm/s2), and Faridabad (300 cm/s2) exhibit high to severe seismic hazard in case of M 6.0 at Sohna fault and it is suggested that a population of about 4.78 million along with the infrastructure of this region is exposed to high risk. The estimated seismic exposure of the population is important to utilize the resources properly before the destructive earthquake incidence. The hazard maps for PGA and different structural periods in the NCR region reveal the level of seismic hazard and risk of the study region. These hazard maps are very helpful for administrators, stakeholders, and civil engineers to construct earthquake-resistant structures to minimize the risk generated by the future impending earthquakes. The exponential growth of the buildings, industries, businesses, etc., attracts the attention of urban area planners because of high seismic risk due to the damaging earthquakes, and its severity must be understood to save the life and property to mitigate the natural disaster like an earthquake by proper disaster mitigation plans, especially in the metropolitan cities like Delhi NCR.

印度国家首都辖区(NCR)德里因活动Sohna断层引起的强地面运动的模拟:可能发生地震危险的隐含意义

印度国家首都辖区(NCR)德里位于印度标准局(BIS)编制的地震分区图上的IV区(地带系数0.24),该地区可能会遭受破坏性强度的袭击,到附近的大地震。战略地质,地貌和地理特征使这个行政权力所在地从古代就更容易遭受地震灾害的影响。因此,我们通过半经验包络技术生成合成加速度图,研究了首都地区附近的Sohna断层引起的M 6.0地震的影响。2007年11月25日(\(M_ {w} \)4.7)已经对地震进行了建模,以利用半经验方法的可靠性。为了分析实际情况,在考虑了场地效应后,地面的地面运动已经产生,因为在破坏性地震的情况下,NCR的不同土壤条件会引起不同程度的破坏。结果,获得的峰值地面加速度(PGA)在100和600 cm / s 2之间变化,并且某些位置的PGA值甚至更高,位于沿河平原地区的沉积物上和源头附近。PGA估计值的空间分布和不同时期的光谱加速度表明,NCR中的站点如德里(600 cm / s 2),索尼帕特(633 cm / s 2),古尔冈(461 cm / s)2)和法里达巴德(300 cm / s 2)在发生M时表现出高到严重的地震危险Sohna断层为6.0级,建议该地区约478万人口以及该地区的基础设施面临高风险。估计人口的地震暴露对于在破坏性地震发生之前正确利用资源至关重要。NCR地区的PGA和不同结构时期的灾害图显示了地震危险程度和研究区域的风险。这些危险图对于管理员,利益相关者和土木工程师构建抗震结构非常有用,可以最大程度地减少未来即将发生的地震所产生的风险。建筑物,工业,企业等的指数级增长,由于破坏性地震带来的高地震风险,引起了城市规划者的注意,
