Download or read book Principles of Seismology written by Agustín Udías and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Principles of Seismology has been extensively revised and updated to present a modern approach to observation seismology and the theory behind digital seismograms. It includes: a new chapter on Earthquakes, Earth's structure and dynamics; a considerably revised chapter on instrumentation, with new material on processing of modern digital seismograms and a list of website hosting data and seismological software; and 100 end-of-chapter problems. The fundamental physical concepts on which seismic theory is based are explained in full detail with step-by-step development of the mathematical derivations, demonstrating the relationship between motions recorded in digital seismograms and the mechanics of deformable bodies. With chapter introductions and summaries, numerous examples, newly drafted illustrations and new color figures, and an updated bibliography and reference list, this intermediate-level textbook is designed to help students develop the skills to tackle real research problems.

Book Corporate Aftershock

Download or read book Corporate Aftershock written by Christopher L. Culp and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2003-06-17 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Scheitern von scheinbar grundsoliden, unerschütterlichen Unternehmen wie Enron haben nicht nur zu großen Missverständnissen über die Märkte geführt, sondern auch zu übereilten Forderungen nach strengeren Vorschriften. "Corporate Aftershock" ist eine fundierte Antwort auf die zahlreichen Vorschläge, Derivate und andere Finanztransaktionen als Folge des Zusammenbruchs von Enron, zu beschränken. Der Band präsentiert eine stichhaltige Analyse der Situation der Public Policy nach dem Enron Debakel. Er erläutert, was wahrscheinlich passieren wird und geht auch darauf ein, was aus Sicht einer ausgewogenen Wirtschaftsanalyse passieren sollte. Autor Christopher Culp ist ein anerkannter Experte auf diesem Gebiet. Er ist Managing Director von C.P. Risk Management LCC, Adjunct Associate Professor of Finance an der Graduate School of Business der Universität von Chicago sowie Gastprofessor für 'Risk and Insurance' am Institut für Finanzmanagement der Universität Bern.

Book Nonlinear Dynamics of the Lithosphere and Earthquake Prediction

Download or read book Nonlinear Dynamics of the Lithosphere and Earthquake Prediction written by Vladimir Keilis-Borok and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-12-10 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vulnerability of our civilization to earthquakes is rapidly growing, rais ing earthquakes to the ranks of major threats faced by humankind. Earth quake prediction is necessary to reduce that threat by undertaking disaster preparedness measures. This is one of the critically urgent problems whose solution requires fundamental research. At the same time, prediction is a ma jor tool of basic science, a source of heuristic constraints and the final test of theories. This volume summarizes the state-of-the-art in earthquake prediction. Its following aspects are considered: - Existing prediction algorithms and the quality of predictions they pro vide. - Application of such predictions for damage reduction, given their current accuracy, so far limited. - Fundamental understanding of the lithosphere gained in earthquake prediction research. - Emerging possibilities for major improvements of earthquake prediction methods. - Potential implications for predicting other disasters, besides earthquakes. Methodologies. At the heart of the research described here is the inte gration of three methodologies: phenomenological analysis of observations; "universal" models of complex systems such as those considered in statistical physics and nonlinear dynamics; and Earth-specific models of tectonic fault networks. In addition, the theory of optimal control is used to link earthquake prediction with earthquake preparedness.

Book Estimating Seismicity to Predict an Impending Earthquake Using the Neuro Fuzzy Expert System

Download or read book Estimating Seismicity to Predict an Impending Earthquake Using the Neuro Fuzzy Expert System written by Anurag Rana and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2024-07-18 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2022 in the subject Geography / Earth Science - Physical Geography, Geomorphology, Environmental Studies, , language: English, abstract: This thesis proposes the use of a Neuro Fuzzy Expert System (NFES) for the estimation of earthquake seismicity and prediction of impending earthquakes. The study uses earthquake data collected from seismic monitoring stations in a specific region and applies NFES to analyze the data and predict the likelihood of future earthquakes. This thesis focuses on the analysis of earthquake data to gain insights into the patterns and characteristics of seismic activity. The study utilizes a dataset of earthquake records collected from various seismic monitoring stations around the world. The data is processed and analyzed using statistical and machine learning techniques to identify trends, patterns, and relationships in the seismic activity.

Book On an Earthquake and Aftershock Mechanism Relating to a Model of the Crust and Mantle

Download or read book On an Earthquake and Aftershock Mechanism Relating to a Model of the Crust and Mantle written by Paul Lieber and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A layered half-space is presented as a model for the crust-mantle system of the earth. Elastic and inelastic properties are attributed to both media. The primary purpose of this report is to study time sequences of shallow earthquakes, with special consideration of the material properties of the crust and mantle. The earthquake mechanism is modelled after the San Andreas Fault in California, and is considered as a discrete Volterra type dislocation. A three-dimensional boundary value problem in static linear elasticity, where the material is assumed to be incompressible, is solved by means of a modified form of the Galerkin vector and use of double Fourier transforms. The solution is shown to reduce to the classical one obtained for the half-space. Time dependent properties are introduced into the system by means of Biot's correspondence principle of linear viscoelasticity. Solutions are obtained in quadrature for the surface displacements and some stresses at the interface. A brief discussion of postglacial uplift and its relation to the inelastic properties of the system is included. Experiments and observations which may be needed for numerical calculations are suggested. (Author).
