Liquefaction Potential of Native Ground in West Kobe, Japan by the Spectral Analysis of Surface Waves (SASW) Method

Figure 4

Shear wave velocity profile.

Shear wave velocities for nine sites along the JR-WEST Wadamisaki feeder-line. The profile stretched across slightly less than 2 kilometers of the ground. Numbered test sites are printed below the velocity profile with the KOBE-locator removed. Circles and arrows indicate major structures along the JR right-of-way.
