Abstract:

At the beginning of 2020, the area of Zagreb was hit by an earthquake of magnitude Mw5.4, where a significant number of buildings in the historic core of the city was damaged. Not long after that, at the end of the same year, a strong earthquake of magnitude Mw6.4 hit the area of Sisak-Moslavina County, which is about 50 km away from Zagreb. It was a significantly stronger earthquake that had enormous consequences for that region and much wider. Earthquakes struck during the Covid-19 pandemic and shocked the whole country. This multi-hazard scenario surprised everybody, as the country was not

Abstract:

Today, many learned builders know that earthquakes in the territory of, for example, a settlement can manifest themselves in the form of the first most powerful earthquake (main underground shock), which is usually followed by a series of weaker repeated earthquakes (repetitive shocks). There are many examples of such a sequence of manifestations of strong earthquakes in a certain territory, when tens of thousands of people die in destroyed buildings during repeated exposure earthquakes. It is thanks to these examples that scientists, builders, understand the main cause of death due to repeate

Better understanding of hazardous natural phenomena means improved preparedness and the opportunity to mitigate the damaging impact of these natural hazards. For example, improving knowledge about earthquakes can enable safer buildings to be built, as well as disaster prevention measures to be implemented, ultimately saving lives. This is particularly important in a country like Japan, which is earthquake-prone and where earthquakes prove to be very unpredictable.

Abstract Earthquake observations contributed by human observers provide an invaluable source of information to investigate both historical and modern earthquakes. Commonly, the observers whose eyewitness accounts are available to scientists are a self-selected minority of those who experience a given earthquake. As such these may not be representative of the overall population that experienced shaking from the event. Eyewitness accounts can contribute to modern science only if they are recorded in the first place and archived in an accessible repository. In this study, we explore the extent to

A source of activity that has not been fully investigated in detail was the location of the recent major and devastating earthquake (East Lombok earthquake 2019).

Earthquakes, like other natural disasters, affect the development of the area, the environment, the economy, society and tourism. The objective of this study is to know the impact of earthquakes on tourism. Specifically, the impact of the 2017 earthquake that hit the island of Kos in Greece, affecting local tourism, is studied. The island of Kos is very touristy and the earthquake occurred in July at the height of the tourist season. The main source of income for citizens in this area is based on tourism. During this event, citizens, in their social network accounts, show their concern for the

Introduction: Various physiological and psychological effects of earthquakes can be seen on the human body, even without a direct physical impact from the earthquake. Both the experience of the earthquake process and the earthquake-related subsequent life changes cause stress through the activation of the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems in the body. This stress can affect various physiological processes, including the cardiovascular system. In this review, the effect of earthquakes on the cardiovascular system was aimed to be discussed in line with the available evidence. Discussion: T

While it is well documented that earthquake risk perception is higher among educated individuals in Turkey, the impact of this perception on disaster preparedness still needs to be investigated. In particular, the study shows that fatalistic tendencies significantly moderate the relationship between earthquake risk perception and disaster preparedness, such that increased fatalism reduces the impa

Abstract. Earthquake impact is an inherently interdisciplinary topic that receives attention from many disciplines. The natural hazard of strong ground motion is the reason why earthquakes are of interest to more than just seismologists. However, earthquake shaking data often receive too little attention by the general public and impact research in the social sciences. The vocabulary used to discuss earthquakes has mostly evolved within and for the discipline of seismology. Discussions on earthquakes outside of seismology thus often use suboptimal concepts that are not of primary concern. This

The impact of an earthquake is bad for the building structure, not only causing damage to the building, but also can cause the building to collapse. Therefore, to reduce the adverse effects obtained from earthquakes, it is necessary to design and evaluate the strength of building structures with resistance to earthquake loads. The method used in this study is dynamic response spectrum analysis to obtain the magnitude of the earthquake load.
