The present topical volume presents a collection of contributions from a workshop that took place in Madrid in February 2014. Earthquake Early Warning System (EEWS) are a rather recent development ...

Earthquake Early Warning Systems

Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering Design

In many past and recent earthquakes it has been shown that the local conditions and, in particular, the local geology have a great influence on the observed seismic ground motion and, consequently,...

Floods, earthquakes, hurricanes and typhoons are the major natural disas ters in the world, among which the least understood are seismogenic processes_ With highly concentrated populations and rapi...

As evidenced dramatically and tragically in 2011 alone,earthquakes cause devastation and their consequences in terms of human suffering and economic disaster can last for years or even decades. The...

Earthquake Resistant Design, Protection, and Performance Assessment in Earthquake Engineering

When thinking, at the beginning of the new century, on our horizons in seismology, we might return to the old question related to the seismic ro- tion effects and waves. Seismology, with its specta...

Earthquake Source Physics on Various Scales

Earthquake-Induced Structural Pounding

Earthquake-Induced Structural Pounding

Tragic Challenges in History

This volume presents different studies carried out on induced seismicity, both from experimental and theoretical viewpoints. Several examples of seismic activity induced by underground nuclear expl...
