We have made a systematic search for air shower events induced possibly by Ultra-high Energy (UHE) cosmic neutrinos by the Akeno Giant Air Shower Array. The lateral distribution of secondary shower particle densities and their shower front curvature are found to be closely related to atmospheric depth of the shower maximum which makes it possible to discriminate anomaly penetrating air shower events from the regular hadron induced air showers. The present analysis has indicated no significant enhancement on intensity of deeply penetrating air showers within the detector resolution. The resultant upper bound on UHE νe flux with energies greater than 3 × 1017 eV is 5.7 × 10-10 m-2 sec-1 sr-1 for J(E)˜ E-2 with 95 % C.L.
