an earthquake was happened on 23 october 2011 in van, turkey (mw7.2) at the eastern most area of anatolian plateau and in the neighborhood of iranian border (west azerbaijan province). the study was performed based on field and office observations and has been focused on the process of disaster management in turkey after the 23 october 2011 earthquake. we surveyed the quake from the view point ...

S U M M A R Y We report on more than 100 earthquake waveform doublets in five subduction zones, including an earthquake nest in Bucaramanga, Colombia. Each doublet is presumed to be a pair of earthquakes that repeat at essentially the same location. These doublets are important for studying earthquake physics, as well as temporal changes of the inner core. Particularly, our observation from one...

— An Earthquake is more important for geophysics and economy problems. The Support Vector Machine of data mining techniques with cluster analysis is used to predict impact of earthquake [2]. The historical data are collected which has follow the time series methodology, combine the data mining for pre-processing and finally apply the SVM to predict the impact of earthquake. Earthquake predictio...

The design earthquake motion is often defined by response spectra. To check the seismic capacity of designed structures, however, it is necessary to perform dynamic analysis using earthquake motion (time history) which is compatible with the design spectra. In this regard, the phase characteristic of earthquake motion is one of the most important issues in addition to that of the amplitude char...

Abstract. Earthquake-induced submarine slope destabilization is known to cause mass wasting and turbidity currents, but the hydrodynamic processes associated with these events remain poorly understood. Instrumental records are rare, this notably limits our ability interpret marine paleoseismological sedimentary records. An instrumented frame comprising a pressure recorder Doppler recording curr...

Earthquake is one of the most destructive natural phenomena which has human and financial losses. The existence of an efficient prediction system and early warning system will be useful for reducing effects of destroying earthquake. In this research, the soil temperature time-series data, obtained from three meteorological station, using three filters (Fourier, Wavelet and Logarithmic Different...

Earthquake DSS is an information technology environment which can be used by government to sharpen, make faster and better the earthquake mitigation decision. Earthquake DSS can be delivered as E-government which is not only for government itself but in order to guarantee each citizen’s rights for education, training and information about earthquake and how to overcome the earthquake. Knowledge...
