Thorax and lung injuries arising from the two earthquakes in Turkey in 1999.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To make a descriptive analysis of the frequency and the type of thorax and lung injuries among the casualties of the two devastating earthquakes that occurred in Turkey in 1999. DESIGN Records of the hospitalized patients injured in the earthquakes were examined retrospectively. RESULTS Among the total of 356 hospitalized patients, 21 (9.7%) in the Izmit earthquake and 6 (7....
متن کاملLuminous Phenomena of Earthquakes: Observations and Theories
Over the past few years, different theories (piezoelectric, positive holes, friction-vaporization, exo-electron emission, tribo- or fracture electrification) have been presented for the interpretation of earthquake lights. Although these theories can interpret earthquake luminous, each suffer from particular problems. There are also ambiguities and questions about the location of the light, the...
متن کاملRecalculated probability of M 7 earthquakes beneath the Sea of Marmara, Turkey
[1] New earthquake probability calculations are made for the Sea of Marmara region and the city of Istanbul, providing a revised forecast and an evaluation of time-dependent interaction techniques. Calculations incorporate newly obtained bathymetric images of the North Anatolian fault beneath the Sea of Marmara [Le Pichon et al., 2001; Armijo et al., 2002]. Newly interpreted fault segmentation ...
متن کاملHow Fast is Rupture during an Earthquake ? New Insights from the 1999 Turkey Earthquakes
We report that during the two devastating 1999 earthquakes in Turkey, rupture propagated over a large part of the nearly 200km long fault zone at supershear speed approaching 5km/s. We present observations and modeling which confirm the original inference of supershear rupture during the Izmit earthquake and we show that supershear upture also occurred during the Diizce earthquake. We show that...
متن کاملFrequency analysis of annual maximum earthquakes for Aşkale, Erzurum (Turkey) province
The aim of this study is to investigate the seismicity of Aşkale County which is located 45 km from Erzurum city in eastern Turkey, a statistical frequency analysis is applied for the annual maximum earthquake magnitudes, occurred between 1900 – 2014 years in the seismotectonic zones around Aşkale County, using various probability distribution models (GEV, Gumbel, Gamma and Pearson III). The go...
