In March 1966, Ms 6.8 and 7.2 earthquakes occurred in Xingtai, North China, resulting in widespread soil liquefaction that caused severe infrastructure damage and economic losses.

The VLF-induced ionospheric perturbations detected by DEMETER during solar minimum
The VLF-induced ionospheric heating events from the powerful transmitter NWC are collected at extremely low solar activity years of 2008–2009, and their spatial and temporal distribution features are investigated.

Tectonic environment and cause of earthquakes in the Three Gorges reservoir area
Seismotectonics in the Three Gorges reservoir area is investigated by using the P-wave tomography with earthquakes that occurred before the impoundment of the reservoir.

Electrical resistivity of sedimentary rock-soil is highly variable and governed mainly by a wide range of properties including resistivities of both solid matrix and fluid, cracks or pores, fluid saturation, and crack fabric (e.g.

As the largest water conservancy and hydropower project in China, the Three Gorges Reservoir is a weak seismic activity area before impoundment, but the frequency of earthquakes increases significantly after impoundment.

STUDY ON SITE CONDITIONS BASED ON TOPOGRAPHIC SLOPE [PDF]
The travel-time averaged shear-wave velocity to a depth of 30m (Vs30) below the Earth’s surface is widely used to classify sites in many building codes. Vs30 is also used to estimate site classification in recent ground-motion prediction equations (GMPEs)

We give a short proof of the fact that bounded earthquakes of the unit disk induce quasisymmetric maps of the unit circle. By a similar method, we show that symmetric maps are induced by bounded earthquakes with asymptotically trivial measures.
