متن کاملDid the September 2010 (Darfield) earthquake trigger the February 2011 (Christchurch) event?
We have investigated the possible cause-and-effect relationship due to stress transfer between two earthquakes that occurred near Christchurch, New Zealand, in September 2010 and in February 2011. The Mw 7.1 Darfield (Canterbury) event took place along a previously unrecognized fault.

متن کاملBuilding Damage Detection from Post-earthquake
The collapsed buildings due to earthquake were detected from post-event aerial images using watershed segmentation algorithm. The objective was to detect the collapsed buildings based on the analysis of the cast shadows. The building boundaries were available and stored in a GIS as vector polygons. The building polygons were utilized to perform assessments in a building specific manner. The app...
متن کاملComparing Liquefaction Phenomena Observed during the 2010 Maule, Chile Earthquake and 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake
On February 27, 2010, the central-south part of Chile was affected by a strong ground motion of Magnitude 8.8, that induced moderate values of peak ground acceleration (PGA) on rock outcrops, in the range of 0.13g to 0.32g, while in soil deposits, a maximum PGA of 0.94g was recorded. The duration of the shaking was close to two minutes as it is substantiated by the available acceleration record...
