Although about two thousand people were killed by the 1945 Mikawa earthquake, a clear description of the entire event has yet to be given because the earthquake took place just before the end of World War II. In order to describe what happened in the epicentral region during this earthquake, the authors estimated the ground motion and investigated the damage done to houses the casualties caused by the earthquake. The ground motion was estimated by a nonlinear finite element method, in which modified joint elements were adopted to model the fault plane. The seismic intensity in the area near the fault was estimated from the calculated maximum velocity. The damage done to houses and the casualties caused were investigated by questionnaire. The destruction of houses was compared in detail to the number of casualties. The type of damage is discussed in relation to the estimated ground motion.
