me jane 0 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Felt in here in Yokohama too. Not very stong but seemed to go on for ages. I always wonder how you know if its going to be a big one. I mean do they hit with a sudden bang or start off gently and then build up, giving you a few seconds to prepare? Scary. Link to post Share on other sites
sanjo 2 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Just seeing the thread title got my heart beating faster, even though I didn't feel anything here in Niigata. me jane. I'm not expert but I have a lot of experience since Oct 23rd last year. The initial thing came with a thump and was very violent, but a few of the aftershocks built up to it over a few seconds. I'm not sure you can tell. Everytime I felt/heard an aftershock coming, I instinctively held onto my table or wherever I was as you really don't know how big it will be. They scare the shit out of me, they really do. Link to post Share on other sites

farquah 0 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 You can usually tell if its going to be a biggie run for cover type quake I have heard if it starts off shaking up and down rather than side to side. Then you shouild worry. Link to post Share on other sites
veronica 2 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 I think I might have felt that too, now I know about it. Link to post Share on other sites
maoriboy 0 Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 I have experienced many different types of earthquakes in my time. Ones that start off with a mighty bang and then slowly wind down and the ones that roll in like waves, slowly getting bigger. Prefer neither Link to post Share on other sites
sunrise 0 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 That was quite a little jolt - it woke me up (well, it was a late nite). Link to post Share on other sites
Sven 0 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Hah, it also woke me up... (I saw Kyuso again sunrise, it was a late night for me too). First time I'd felt an earthquake, thankfully a not-too-violent one. Link to post Share on other sites
sunrise 0 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Hi Sven, How were the other bands last Friday? I wish I could have stayed. Sorry to rush off like that. Let's hang some other time. Link to post Share on other sites
BillTheBinMan 0 Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 From what I heard, they are "up and down" when you're near to the epicenter. And "side swaying" when you are further away. That make sense? Link to post Share on other sites
brett_jackson 0 Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I seem to remember the 'side to side' waves are Primary waves - those that travel the quickest through most of the earths crust radiating out from the epicentre in all directions (even up ... which vibrates the air and causes the "train approaching-like" sound). The Secondary or Surface waves (up & down) only travel along the upper edge of the crust and are slower, arriving after the primary. These only occurr if the quake is big enough. Surface waves are like waves on the ocean, only it's the land that's moving up and down instead of the water. Very destructive. I imagine if you were directly above the epicentre and if the epicentre was close to the surface, you'd feel one, massive, destructive jolt, and then little or no sustained movement or quaking afterwards. But that's just a guess. Link to post Share on other sites
Sven 0 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Hey sunrise, yeah, they were all great. My favourite was Kyuso, they were the second band there... 6 piece instrumental (sax, trombone, guitar, piano, drums, bass), all japanese guys, and they played good 'fun' jazz/rock type stuff. Good enough to get me to come to their next gig Link to post Share on other sites
sunrise 0 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Cool. That's the only band I didn't know, but I heard they were supposed to be great. Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 Some corrections there,voidhawk. You got it right that there are mainly 2 types of waves, (I say mainly because there are more than 2), but wrong after that point. The P waves or “compressional waves” are the ones that move faster and usually responsible for the up-down movement. The S waves or “shear waves” are slower than P waves and are usually responsible for the side to side movement; S waves are also the ones that cannot propagate through liquids. The angle that these waves reach the surface of the earth is a main factor for which of the relative motion will be stronger. The “surface waves” that you mentioned can be treated as another category, but physically speaking they are multiple reflections of P and S waves between the surface of the earth and the crust-mantle boundary. They can be stronger than P and S waves usually when the earthquake is not deep, but they are highly depended on the angle that the P and S waves are reflected and so they are not always created or they are not always strong.
