Earthquake Forecasting and Earthquake Preparedness [PDF]

International Journal of Earth & Environmental Sciences, 2016
Earthquake prediction is usually dealt with in one of two ways: the prediction of the effects of a postulated earthquake on a specific site or the prediction of the occurrence of events. The first approach is today well developed and should always be instrumental for the design and implementation of construction codes and for general planning.

The Sea-Level Changes in Hong Kong From Tide-Gauge Records and Remote Sensing Observations Over the Last Seven Decades

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
The importance of studying the sea-level change (SLC) in Hong Kong (HK) is emphasized by factors related to high population density, intensive urban, and industrial development, particularly along the coast that involves a considerable landreclamation ...

Modification of the pattern informatics method for forecasting large earthquake events using complex eigenvectors

, 2005
Recent studies have shown that real-valued principal component analysis can be applied to earthquake fault systems for forecasting and prediction. In addition, theoretical analysis indicates that earthquake stresses may obey a wave-like equation, having ...

Forecasting strong aftershocks in earthquake clusters from northeastern Italy and western Slovenia

, 2020
In this study, we propose an analysis of the earthquake clusters that occurred in North-Eastern Italy and western Slovenia from 1977 to today. Given a mainshock generating alarm in the population, we are interested in forecasting if a similar magnitude ...

Using synchronization to improve earthquake forecasting in a cellular automaton model

, 2004
A new forecasting strategy for stochastic systems is introduced. It is inspired by the concept of anticipated synchronization between pairs of chaotic oscillators, recently developed in the area of Dynamical Systems, and by the earthquake forecasting ...

A way to synchronize models with seismic faults for earthquake forecasting: Insights from a simple stochastic model

, 2006
Numerical models are starting to be used for determining the future behaviour of seismic faults and fault networks. Their final goal would be to forecast future large earthquakes.

Statistical analysis of daily seismic event rate as a precursor to volcanic eruptions [PDF]

, 2003
We analyse time series of daily seismic event rate for the Kilauea, Hawaii, volcano between 1959 and 2000. Individual eruptions are not always preceded by an increase in event rate, and many increases in event rate do not lead to eruption.

Earthquake forecasting, public policy and earthquake forecasting

Bulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 1979
The geodetic, geophysical and seismological approaches to earthquake forecasting are summarised and illustrated with examples of precursory phenomena, which can be categorised into long term, intermediate term, short term and imminent. The results from at least two, but preferably more, disciplines are needed to reliably identify a precursory phase ...

Tough, Ductile, and Strong Hard‐Soft Cementitious Composite Enabled by Multi‐Material Additive Manufacturing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Drawing inspiration from the layered hard‐soft architecture found in sea sponges, this work establishes a new framework for architected cementitious composites (ACC) through multi‐material additive manufacturing (MMAM) process. The integration of mortar and elastomer phases into layered architectures enables synergistic toughening mechanisms, including
