Abstract:
This study aims to group earthquake damage from its magnitude scale and visualize it on a geographical map. The magnitude of the earthquake was grouped using the K-means model. It is one of the most popular and effective clustering models in grouping data, such as earthquake data. The dataset used in this study is earthquake data for the last ten years on Lombok Island. The optimal number of clusters was used which is 2 in this case, based on the highest Silhouette score of 0.930. The highest Silhouette score shows the optimal number of clusters.

Abstract Foreshocks and/or aftershocks play critical roles in improving our understanding of the processes of faulting, such as nucleation of earthquakes, earthquake triggering, and postseismic deformation. A rapid and accurate earthquake detection and location algorithm can provide timely information of seismic activities, thereby benefitting our understanding of physical mechanisms of faulting and seismic hazard assessment. We have developed a graphic processing unit (GPU)-accelerated automatic microseismic monitoring algorithm (GAMMA) for accurate and near real-time detection and location o

Abstract:
Earthquake, also known as ground motion and ground vibration, is a natural phenomenon caused by the rapid release of energy from the earth's crust, during which seismic waves are generated. The current level of science and technology cannot predict the arrival of earthquakes, and earthquakes will be unpredictable for a long time in the future. The so-called examples of successful earthquake prediction are basically coincidences. For earthquakes, what we should do is to improve the seismic level of buildings and do a good job of defence, rather than predicting earthquakes. Turkey experienced a

Abstract:
An earthquake is a fatal natural disaster that occurs suddenly without any prior signal. Every year the world faces many earthquakes with magnitudes varying from low to high. The uncertain nature of earthquakes makes it almost impossible to predict the exact time of occurrence. So, it is necessary to take precautionary steps before an earthquake hits. To take preventive measures, a proper study of tectonic plates and faults must be done to gain insight into the study area's susceptibility. Due to the geological characteristics and tec-tonic plate activity, Bangladesh risks facing an Earthquake

Yet, evidence for a severe earthquake is weak, consisting of anonymous reports conveyed to Europe 6 months later by merchant ships returning from Bengal.

One can expect that exclusive seismic activity of Javakheti Highland testifies to global geophysical processes which take place throughout the Caucasus region. Based on the above-mentioned, of interest was to study variation with time of the number of earthquakes occurring in Javakheti region.

ABSTRACTThe September 19, 1985, Mexico earthquake reminded scientists and engineers of the importance of considering soil amplification effects in earthquake-resistant design. The Mexico earthquake illustrated the “worst case”—the ground response and the building response occurring at approximately the same period, 2 seconds. This resonance phenomenon was predictable on the basis of similar experiences in past earthquakes. A number of areas in the United States also exhibit significant predictable soil amplification effects. Special steps are needed in these areas to mitigate the potential dam

We processed this catalog using time-frequency analyses and daily stacking, which are powerful in extracting weak periodical signal from strong random noises. We concentrated on the time se
