Shear planes are formed in various orientations within fault fracture zones. The sense of shear on each shear plane can be determined from the composite planar fabrics developed around it. However, it is not possible to distinguish whether all the shear planes in a fault fracture zone were formed during the same stage of motion by observations alone, because of the scarcity of chronological data. As such, we attempted to determine the kinematic and stress histories of the Shionohira and Kuruma faults by using both observations of composite planar fabrics and stress inversion analysis. As a result, we identified five stages of motion on the Shionohira Fault and two stages of motion on the Kuruma Fault. The chronological data are not sufficient to constrain the timing of the stages, but the reconstructed histories are consistent with the paleostress fields and tectonic activity around these faults, as determined in previous studies. Although the reconstructed stress history depends on the density of fault-slip data from the measurement area, this method is effective for investigating the formation mechanisms of fault fracture zones.

Co-seismic surface ruptures in the Fukushima-ken Hamadori Earthquake of Mw 6.7 on April 11, 2011 exposed approximately 14 km trending NNW-SSE from Nameishi to northwest of Ishizumi Tsunaki of Tabito Town, Iwaki City and were newly named the Shionohira Fault. However, no surface ruptures appeared along an N-S trending active Kuruma fault extending 5 km south of the Shionohira Fault. Because of the proximity and similar strike, two locations in Shionohira Fault and one location in Kuruma fault were selected as the study area for the fault activity evaluation. The present study reports the results of a series of geological and drilling surveys, core observation, XRD, isotope, and fluid inclusion analyses, and water permeability test. The results obtained from the three locations offer a fundamental data base that can be utilized for fault activity evaluation by summarizing the geological, mineralogical, and fluid property characteristics of fault fracture zone.

This paper aims to develop a methodology for understanding the fault activity by observing exposed fault planes without covering younger strata. Based on purpose, faults developed in relatively homogeneous rocks such granitic types are investigated as follows; Gosuke Dam upstream outcrop of Gosukebashi Fault and Funasaka-nishi outcrop of Rokkou Fault were selected for the study of an active fault; and K-3 outcrop of Rokkou Houraikyo Fault was chosen for a non-active fault.

Staples for a stapler can be used as a frame of a small oriented sample taken from fragile and scarce fault gouge. The fault gouge was slotted for staples of an insert. Staples are a group of about ten or less ones holding right-angled three small surfaces. Pre-oriented staples set the slot would remove then presented for the SEM observation. Only a knife, some glues and simple equipment are needed for the method in the field or laboratories.

The evaluation of an fault activity has been done by an observation of deformation of overlying strata of the fault. However, it is difficult to evaluate the activity where the fault zone appears only in a basement rock with no overlying strata. We have been carried out the observation of the fault zone to establish the method of evaluation of fault activity. We selected the outcrops through literature and surface geological survey. Examples of outcrops of active fault are outcrops of Gosukebashi Fault in the Rokko-Awaji Fault Zone and the Rokko Fault in the Arima-Takatsuki Tectonic Line, southern Hyogo Prefecture. An example of non-active fault is outcrop of the fault around the Rokko Horai-kyo in the northern Rokko Mountains. In this study, we focus on the easy evaluation method in the field, and described about suitability of observation of fault plane, in-situ experiments of hardness and color.

In order to contribute to the Fault Slip experiment, JAEA has performed friction experiment of borehole cores of the measured interval using a rotary-shear low to high-velocity friction apparatus at Institute of Geology, China Earthquake Administration. Friction experiments were done either dry with room humidity or with 30wt% of HO, at a normal stress of 1.4 and 4.0 MPa and at low to intermediate slip rates ranging 0.21 microns/s to 2.1mm/s. Cylindrical specimens of Ti-Al-V alloy with 40 mm in diameter were used as rotary and stationary pistons and the alloy pistons exhibit similar behaviors as host rock specimens.
