Strong earthquakes in  the Romanian Vrancea area have caused a high toll of casualties and  extensive damage over the last several centuries. With a moment  magnitude of 7.4, the 1977 earthquake caused more than 1500  casualties, the majority of them in Bucharest. The contributions  address key problems of seismotectonics of the Vrancea area and  related strong ground motion, hazard assessment, site effects and  microzonation, structural damage and earthquake resistant design, risk  assessment and disaster management from an international and regional  perspective. This list of topics shows the diverse contributions from  the multidisciplinary fields of geosciences, geophysics, seismology,  geology, civil engineering, city planning, and emergency relief  practices. This book is of value for scientists interested in  earthquake hazard and seismic risk research as well as for  seismologists, geophysicists and Earth scientists. It is also useful  for authorities responsible for public safety and natural hazard  mitigation plans and for insurance companies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9789401059947\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401059947\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-4748-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 375\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44358912245900,"sku":"9789401059947","price":153.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401059947.jpg?v=1755096862","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401059947","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
