Effects of ground on earthquake motion [PDF]
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 1957 ABSTRACT Earthquake damage at a given location depends on properties of the arriving elastic waves, of the ground at the shaken site, and of the structures involved. To investigate effects of the ground on the motion at the surface, five identical seismographs have been operated temporarily at 25 locations within 30 miles from the ...

Physics-based earthquake early warning using distributed acoustic sensing [PDF]
Scientific ReportsWe present a physics-based point source earthquake early warning system using distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) data. All core modules of the system are based on physical principles of wave propagation, and models that describe the earthquake source and
