seismic vulnerability analysis of urban roads network
while risk reduction has been mainly addressed by seismologists and engineers by now, the total impact of earthquake greatly depends on urban planning factors. the effects of planning can be considered in the socio economic and physical aspects. urban planning may have a dominant role in various earthquake phases: at the time of earthquake; rescue, and emergency, as well as temporary and perman...
متن کاملANTS: An Evolvable Network of Tiny Sensors
As a promising technology that enables ubiquitous computing and leads IT industries of next generation, sensor networks (SN) are foreseen to expand and populate the globe in such a way as the present Internet does. In this scenario, new challenges appear with such massive deployment, as the constant interaction of nodes and networks will transform them in dynamic entities that will need to evol...
متن کاملSeismic hazard zoning in Urmia urban area.
Today, the resiliency of the human centers, especially urban centers against the natural hazards such as earthquakes, is one of the main challenges in the targeted management of urban. One of the effective strategies in the control, containment and prevention of risks from earthquakes is zoning of urban areas in terms of vulnerability. In this regard, the purpose of this study was to determine...
متن کاملEvaluating the integrability of the quake-catcher network (QCN)
This paper reviews the Quake-Catcher Network (QCN), a distributed computing seismic network that uses lowcost USB accelerometers to record earthquakes, and discusses the potential to incorporate QCN stations with traditional seismic networks. These very dense urban networks could then be used to create a working earthquake early warning system, as has been shown by our preliminary tests of the ...
متن کاملCommunity Seismic Network
The article describes the design of the Community Seismic Network, which is a dense open seismic network based on low cost sensors. The inputs are from sensors hosted by volunteers from the community by direct connection to their personal computers, or through sensors built into mobile devices. The server is cloud-based for robustness and to dynamically handle the load of impulsive earthquake e...
