1. Introduction to the earthquake event
At 01:08 09 Mar, 2019 (Local Time, UTC +9), an M 4.5 (JMA) earthquake occurred in Japan Gifu-ken Mino-chuseibu. The epicenter was located at 136.7 35.4, with a depth of 40.0 km.
2. Recorded ground motions
40 ground motions near to epicenter of this earthquake were analyzed. The names and locations of the stations can be found Table 1. The maximal recorded peak ground acceleration (PGA) is 151 cm/s/s. The corresponding response spectra in comparison with the design spectra specified in the Chinese Code for Seismic Design of Buildings are shown in Figure 1.

3. Damage analysis of the target region subjected to the recorded ground motions
Using the real-time ground motions obtained from the strong motion networks and the city-scale nonlinear time-history analysis (see the Appendix of this report), the damage ratios of buildings located in different places can be obtained. The building damage distribution and the human uncomfortableness distribution near to different stations is shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3, respectively. These outcomes can provide a reference for post-earthquake rescue work.
