The 2004 and 2005 Sumatra Earthquakes: Implications for the Lisbon earthquake [PDF]
, 2005 The Sumatra mega-earthquake of 26 December 2004 (Mw=9.3) was the strongest earthquake in the world since the 1964 Alaska earthquake and the fifth strongest since 1900. The earthquake occurred at the interface of the India and Burma plates and triggered a

Effect of diaphragm wall on earthquake responses of an underground subway station
Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2017 At present, the diaphragm wall is always used as the partial side wall of the underground subway station. However, the diaphragm wall is always neglected in the seismic design of an underground structure for that it is looked as a reserved safety for its

Earthquake Triggering and Interaction
, 2010 Erdbeben interagieren in vielfältiger Weise miteinander, weshalb sie nicht als einzelne, unabhängige Ereignisse behandelt werden können. Obwohl diese Erdbebenwechselwirkungen in der Regel zu einer komplexen Entwicklung des Spannungsfelds führen, bedeutet dies nicht zwangsläufig, dass Erdbeben rein zufällig und völlig unberechenbar auftreten ...

Shallow seismicity in the area of Greece: its character as seen by means of a stochastic model [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 1995 Occurrence of successive earthquake events in space is analysed by means of semi-stochastic processes. The analysis employs earthquakes events with M > 5.2 from the area of Greece and its surroundings (18-31° E, 34-43° N) for the time interval 1911-1985.
