Download or read book The Handy Geology Answer Book written by Patricia Barnes-Svarney and published by Visible Ink Press. This book was released on 2004-02-01 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Answers hundreds of questions on the most interesting of topics—planet Earth! It’s right under our feet every day—Earth and all its glorious components. From fossils, rocks, and minerals to caves, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions, The Handy Geology Answer Book traces the formation of the universe and the planet, investigating the layers of the planet and explaining the formation of mountains and bodies of water. Questions and answers are also devoted to physical and chemical processes, fossil fuels, the effects of global warming on glaciers, world morphological features, and even the geology of other planets. It answers nearly 1,000 of the most frequently asked questions on the complexities that shaped our planet. It is also a trivia buff’s delight with the stats for Earth’s deepest (the Mariana, the deepest-known ocean trench), lowest (the shoreline of the Dead Sea), highest (Mt. Everest), the longest river (the Nile), and the largest freshwater lake (Lake Superior) along with the “how and why” of these features. Easy to understand and use, The Handy Geology Answer Book is invaluable for students and general science readers of all ages. With numerous photos and illustrations, this informative book also includes a resource section on educational places, government organizations, and other references, a helpful bibliography, an extensive index, and a glossary of terms, adding to its usefulness. From the microscopic formation of crystals to the titanic, eons-long processes that result in islands, volcanoes, mountains, glaciers, oceans, continents, and even planets, you’ll learn about the events that created today’s world and the changes that continue to affect Earth every day.
Download or read book Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics in Memory of Ragnar Sigbj rnsson written by Rajesh Rupakhety and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-07 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents methods and results that cover and extend beyond the state-of-the-art in structural dynamics and earthquake engineering. Most of the chapters are based on the keynote lectures at the International Conference in Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics (ICESD), held in Reykjavik, Iceland, on June 12-14, 2017. The conference is being organised in memory of late Professor Ragnar Sigbjörnsson, who was an influential teacher and one of the leading researchers in the fields of structural mechanics, random fields, engineering seismology and earthquake engineering. Professor Sigbjörnsson had a close research collaboration with the Norwegian Institute of Science and Technology (NTNU), where his research was mainly focused in dynamics of marine and offshore structures. His research in Iceland was mainly focused on engineering seismology and earthquake engineering. The keynote-lecture based chapters are contributed by leading experts in these fields of research and showcase not only the historical perspective but also the most recent developments as well as a glimpse into the future. These chapters showcase a synergy of the fields of structural dynamics, engineering seismology, and earthquake engineering. In addition, some chapters in the book are based on works carried out under the leadership and initiative of Professor Sigbjörnsson and showcase his contribution to the understanding of seismic hazard and risk in Iceland. As such, the book is useful for both researchers and practicing engineers who are interested in recent research advances in structural dynamics and earthquake engineering, and in particular to those interested in seismic hazard and risk in Iceland.

Download or read book Earthquakes and Their Impact on Society written by Sebastiano D'Amico and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 718 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an integrated approach to the assessment of seismic hazards. The reduction of losses expected by future earthquakes is probably the most important contribution of seismology to society. Large earthquakes occurred in densely populated areas highlight the dramatic inadequacy of a massive portion of the buildings demonstrating the high risks of modern industrial societies. Building earthquake-resistant structures and retrofitting old buildings on a national scale can be extremely expensive and can represent an economic challenge even for developed western countries. Earthquakes can cause also several psychological problems due to the fact that such kind of disasters will result in casualties, collapsing of houses, strategic buildings and facilities and deeply affect a community. Moreover in our society it is necessary to properly plan emergency responses and rescues taking into account any possible secondary effect in order to avoid more casualties.
