摘要：The 2014 Mount Ontake eruption started just before noon on September 27, 2014.It killed 58 people, and five are still missing (as of January 1, 2016).The casualties were mainly caused by the impact of ballistic blocks around the summit area.It is necessary to know the magnitude of the block velocity and energy to construct a hazard map of ballistic projectiles and design effective shelters and mountain huts.The ejection velocities of the ballistic projectiles were estimated by comparing the observed distribution of the ballistic impact craters on the ground with simulated distributions of landing positions under various sets of conditions.A three-dimensional numerical multiparticle ballistic model adapted to account for topographic effect was used to estimate the ejection angles.From these simulations, we have obtained an ejection angle of γ = 20° from vertical to horizontal and α = 20° from north to east.With these ejection angle conditions, the ejection speed was estimated to be between 145 and 185 m/s for a previously obtained range of drag coefficients of 0.62–1.01.The order of magnitude of the mean landing energy obtained using our numerical simulation was 104 J.
