This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Earthquake Investigation Committee of the Technical Council of Lifeline Earthquake Engineering of ASCE. On August 17, 1999, the Izmit (Kocaeli) earthquake tore through Kocaeli, Turkey, resulting in more than 15,000 deaths and 27,000 injuries; 200,000 people were left homeless. The electric power system, nearly destroyed, sustained more than US$70 million in damage. Another earthquake on November 12, to the east of Izmit at Duzce, added to the lifeline systems damage, impacting the communications system, water and wastewater system, ports, railway, road, and bridges. This TCLEE Monograph provides information for practitioners to improve the performance of the lifeline systems. Topics include: seismology, geology, and geotechnical issues; electric power; airports; telecommunications; water and wastewater; transportation (highways and bridges); liquid fuel facilities; railway; ports; hospitals; social impacts; and emergency response and recovery.

Book Synopsis Best Practices in Physics-based Fault Rupture Models for Seismic Hazard Assessment of Nuclear Installations by : Luis A. Dalguer
Download or read book Best Practices in Physics-based Fault Rupture Models for Seismic Hazard Assessment of Nuclear Installations written by Luis A. Dalguer and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume collects several extended articles from the first workshop on Best Practices in Physics-based Fault Rupture Models for Seismic Hazard Assessment of Nuclear Installations (BestPSHANI). Held in 2015, the workshop was organized by the IAEA to disseminate the use of physics-based fault-rupture models for ground motion prediction in seismic hazard assessments (SHA). The book also presents a number of new contributions on topics ranging from the seismological aspects of earthquake cycle simulations for source scaling evaluation, seismic source characterization, source inversion and physics-based ground motion modeling to engineering applications of simulated ground motion for the analysis of seismic response of structures. Further, it includes papers describing current practices for assessing seismic hazard in terms of nuclear safety in low seismicity areas, and proposals for physics-based hazard assessment for critical structures near large earthquakes. The papers validate and verify the models by comparing synthetic results with observed data and empirical models. The book is a valuable resource for scientists, engineers, students and practitioners involved in all aspects of SHA.
Book Synopsis Analysis of the Crustal Deformation Caused by the 1999 İzmit and Düzce Earthquakes Using Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry by : Ziyadin Çakır

This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thus, spatial distribution of the geodetic data set allows both types of models to be reasonable as both of them explain the observation nearly equally well. Additional data, particularly in the near field, are required to better constrain the rupture geometry. In the absence of such a new data set, considering the Iong term activity of the North Anatolian fault (NAF) present in the region and the regional tectonic settings, a multiple-fault-rupture model is preferred here. Accordingly , the Düzce earthquake is thought to have been associated with multiple fault breaks, as commonly observed elsewhere in the world. Although there are some differences, the coseismic slip distribution on this complex fault geometry is similar to that found on the fault with single-fault-rupture geometry. Slip models with multiple-fault-rupture predict higher slip, particularly at depth and hence give slight\y higher seismic moment (6.3-6.5 x 10 19 Nm, Mw=7.2, which is still comparable with the seismological estimates). Both the GPS and InSAR data suggest a Ionger (-15 km) fault rupture to the east than the one mapped in the field, which explains why the magnitude of the Düzce event is surprisingly higher when considering its short rupture Iength observed in the field. After determining the source parameters of the 1999 Izmit and Düzce earthquakes, the Coulomb stress changes caused by these earthquakes are calculated and interpreted in terms of static stress interactions. Because the Coulomb calculations are based on the elastic dislocation theory , source parameters of an earthquake play a key role in the accuracy of the Coulomb stress changes caused by that earthquake. Thus, unlike the previous studies, in which generally a rough slip distribution and a simple fault geometry were used, here in this study the source parameters determined from InSAR and GPS modelling are used in the calculations of the Coulomb stress changes. The Coulomb stress changes resolved on the Izmit rupture and the stress distribution in the earthquake area pnor to the earthquake are calculated using four Iarge earthquakes (M > 7) that occurred previously along the North Anatolian fault. Calculation of the Coulomb stress changes resolved on the Izmit rupture due to the previous earthquake shows that the Izmit earthquake occured in area of stress increase.

Book Synopsis Fire Following Earthquake by : Charles Scawthorn
Download or read book Fire Following Earthquake written by Charles Scawthorn and published by ASCE Publications. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Technical Council on Lifeline Earthquake Engineering of ASCE. This TCLEE Monograph covers the entire range of fire following earthquake (FFE) issues, from historical fires to 20th-century fires in Kobe, San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, and Northridge. FFE has the potential of causing catastrophic losses in the United States, Japan, Canada, New Zealand, and other seismically active countries with wood houses. This comprehensive book on FFE and urban conflagrations provides state-of-the-practice insight on unique issues, such as large diameter flex hose applications by fire and water departments. Topics include: History of past fires; Computer modeling of fire spread in the post-earthquake urban environment; Concurrent damage and fire impacts for water, power gas, communication and transportation systems; Examples of reliable water systems built or designed in San Francisco, Vancouver, Berkeley, and Kyoto; Use of large diameter (5 in.) and ultralarge diameter (12 in.) flex hose for fire fighting and water restoration; and Cost-effectiveness of various FFE mitigation strategies, with a detailed benefit-cost model. Water utility engineers, fire fighting professionals, and emergency response planners will benefit from reading this book.

Book Synopsis Characterization of Modern and Historical Seismic–Tsunamic Events, and Their Global–Societal Impacts by : Y. Dilek
Download or read book Characterization of Modern and Historical Seismic–Tsunamic Events, and Their Global–Societal Impacts written by Y. Dilek and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2021-06-22 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthquakes and tsunamis are devastating geohazards with significant societal impacts. Most recent occurrences have shown that their impact on the stability of nations–societies and the world geopolitics is immense, potentially triggering a tipping point for a major downturn in the global economy. This Special Publication presents the most current information on the causes and effects of some of the modern and historical earthquake–tsunami events, and effective practices of risk assessment–disaster management, implemented by various governments, international organizations and intergovernmental agencies. Findings reported here show that the magnitude of human casualties and property loss resulting from earthquakes–tsunamis are highly variable around the globe, and that increased community, national and global resilience is significant to empower societal preparedness for such geohazards. It is clear that all stakeholders, including scientists, policymakers, governments, media and world organizations must work together to disseminate accurate, objective and timely information on geohazards, and to develop effective legislation for risk reduction and realistic hazard mitigation–management measures in our globally connected world of today.
