Abstract
This paper studies the seismic response of an active ground fissure site subjected to earthquake by the shaking table model test. The settlement was induced by the earthquake in the ground fissure site. The settlement increased with the earthquake peak acceleration. The differential settlement has a third-order polynomial relationship with the earthquake intensity. The process of the settlement has three periods, including the rapid deformation stage, the stable deformation stage, and the accelerated development stage. The greatest settlement is in the hanging wall close to the fissure. The secondary fissures and new cracks developed and appeared during the earthquake. The high frequency component of the wave was reduced from the bottom to the top of the site and the low frequency component was amplified. The Fourier amplitude gradual increases correspond to the earthquake acceleration. The results discovery the relationship of subsidence, widen of fissure and the earthquake. It is contribute to the metro design of the fissure area.
