Sustainable Urban Planning and Risk Assessment of Earthquake Hazards in Turkey
Cities in the developing world are facing increased risk of disasters and the potential of economic and human losses from natural hazards is being exacerbated by the rate of unplanned urban expansion and influenced by the quality of urban management. Risk assessment has come to be regarded by many analysts as a critical part of the development of sustainable communities. The risk assessment fun...
متن کامل3D Visualization for Urban Earthquake Risk
Visualization is the graphical presentation of information, with the goal of improving the viewer’s understanding of the information contents. As today’s world is getting richer in information, visualization of the information is important for effective communication and decision making. In this study, generation of a 3D city model in CAD environment and its use in a spatial decision support sy...
متن کاملThe Loma Prieta, California, Earthquake of October 17,1989: Earthquake Occurrence Main-shock Characteristics Strong-motion and Broadband Teleseismic Analysis of the Earthquake for Rupture Process and Hazards Assessment*
We have used broadband records from 18 teleseismic stations and three-component records from 16 local strongmotion stations in a formal inversion to determine the temporal and spatial distribution of slip during the earthquake. Separate inversions of the teleseismic (periods, 3Contribution No. 4935, Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA ...
متن کاملIzmit Earthquake on Seismic Hazards in Istanbul
We calculate the probability of strong shaking in Istanbul—an urban center of 10 million people—from the description of earthquakes on the North Anatolian fault system in the Marmara Sea during the past 500 years, and test the resulting catalog against the frequency of damage in Istanbul during the preceding millennium. Departing from current practice, we include the time-dependent effect of st...
متن کاملRethinking Earthquake Prediction
We re-examine and summarize what is now possible in predicting earthquakes, what might be accomplished (and hence might be possible in the next few decades) and what types of predictions appear to be inherently impossible based on our understanding of earthquakes as complex phenomena. We take predictions to involve a variety of time scales from seconds to a few decades. Earthquake warnings and ...
