摘要
陇西地震是张衡地动仪的惟一测震实例,亦是检验地动仪复原模型是否合理的一个关键性判据.但长期以来,一直被误作公元138年2月28日的金城—陇西地震,因与史料矛盾而被国内外的研究所否定.本文通过对史料的详细考证,特别分析了《后汉书》对陇西地震的描写、各种史料揭示的当时历史背景、张衡的生平、张衡的诗文、汉代地名考,对比了清朝5次历史地震,估算了其烈度衰减,得出结论:这次陇西地震的时间应为公元134年12月13日(阳嘉三年十一月壬寅).作为一个粗估,其震中在天水一带,震级约7级.张衡晚年的悲剧也与这次地震有关.本文还利用近年3次陇西地震在洛阳台的宽频带地震记录,从震级定义、数字宽频带地震记录和小震记录合成大震记录等3个方面进行了数值模拟.得到洛阳灵台处的水平向最大地动位移应为6~8mm,最大加速度则不大于10-2m/s2.这些结果对新完成的张衡地动仪的科学复原模型起到了重要的定量检测作用.
Longxi earthquake was the only earthquake example, which Zhang Heng′s Seismometer had detected. Therefore this event attracted the attention of the academic circle and also served as crucial evidence, examining the rationality of the reconstructed model of the seismometer. But for a long time, owing to the fact that the Jincheng-Longxi earthquake of February 28 of 138 AD was mistakenly taken as the said earthquake and that it went against the historical records and was refuted by the researches of both in China and abroad. By making careful textual research of historical records, especially by analyzing the description of Longxi earthquake of "Houhan Shu", by studying the historical background exposed by historical records at that time, Zhang Heng′s biography, his poems and place names of Han Dynasty, by comparing 5 earthquakes occurred in Ming-Qing dynasties and their attenuation of seismic intensity, the authors have come to the conclusion that the Longxi Earthquake should take place on December 13, 134 AD (Yangjia 3 year). Rough assessment was that the epicenter should be in Tianshui area and the magnitude was about 7. Due to the political corruption and inability to scientifically explain earthquake phenomenon at the end of Eastern Han Dynasty, a tragedy occurred during the later years of Zhang Heng's life that he had direct relations with the earthquake 134 AD. In order to analyze the ground motion at Lingtai caused by Longxi earthquake in 134 AD, the digital broad-band seismic records of 3 Longxi earthquakes in recent years recorded by Luoyang Seismic Station are used. The numerical modelings are made from three aspects of seismic magnitude definition, digital broad-band seismic records and synthetic seismograms from small earthquake to big one. The results have shown that the maximum horizontal displacement at Lingtai, Luoyang, should be between 6~8 mm, and the maximum acceleration should be less than 10~ -2 m/s~2. These results have played an important role in quantitative test of the scientific reconstruction model of Zhang Heng′s seismometer.
