Earthquake spatial distribution: the correlation dimension

Fractal dimension and earthquake frequency-magnitude distribution in the North of Central-East Iran Blocks (NCEIB)

The Gutenberg–Richter parameters (a and b), fractal dimension (DC), and relationships between these parameters are calculated for different regions of the North of Central-East Iran Blocks (NCEIB). The whole examined area (between 34°-36° N and 55°-61° E) is divided into 55 equal square grids. Both the a and b values for the frequency-magnitude distribution (FMD) and the fractal dimension (DC) ...

Spatial Correlation between Interferometric Stacking Pattern Deformation and Damage Distribution of Athens 7-9-99 Earthquake and Its Seismic Sequence

The study presents an attempt to correlate the spatial distribution of damages and the ground deformation measure by SAR interferometric stacking technique in the case of Athens 7-9-99 earthquake. Damage maps were created for building collapsed and affected areas, built in a GIS environment. The location of the collapsed building was identified using a portable GPS resever and introduced as poi...

Earthquake Analysis of Spatial Rod Systems

A master element to be employed as a general spatial rod finite element is presented. This spatially curved and pretwisted element can have variable cross-section and variable curvature change. It may also be resting on an elastic foundation. Also, a finite element formulation for a general earthquake analysis of spatial rods is presented. The theoretical foundation has lead to a general-purpos...
