Description for Earthquake Source Asymmetry, Structural Media and Rotation Effects
Hardback. Examines the rotational effects in earthquakes, a revolutionary concept in seismology. This book investigates and describes the rotation and twist effects, and their consequences for designing tall buildings and other important structures. Editor(s): Teisseyre, R.; Takeo, Minoru; Majewski, Eugeniusz. Num Pages: 582 pages, biography. BIC Classification: RBC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 33. Weight in Grams: 1023.
When thinking, at the beginning of the new century, on our horizons in seismology, we might return to the old question related to the seismic ro- tion effects and waves. Seismology, with its spectacular achievements instrumentation, data processing, seismic tomography and source process theories – remains practically confined to linear ideal elasticity (isotropic or anisotropic). Numerous renown seismologists have tried to go beyond this horizon. As concerns rotation waves, such attempts were inspired by numerous macroscopic observations pointing out the rotation effects, often observed on the ground surface. However, this problem has been app- ently closed by Mallet in 1862, ... Read more
