Earthquakes: Models, Statistics, Testable Forecasts
ISBN: 9781118637920 / Angielski / Twarda / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is the first comprehensive and methodologically rigorous analysis of earthquake occurrence. Models based on the theory of the stochastic multidimensional point processes are employed to approximate the earthquake occurrence pattern and evaluate its parameters. The Author shows that most of these parameters have universal values. These results help explain the classical earthquake distributions: Omori's law and the Gutenberg-Richter relation.
The Author derives a new negative-binomial distribution for earthquake numbers, instead of the Poisson distribution, and then determines a... This book is the first comprehensive and methodologically rigorous analysis of earthquake occurrence. Models based on the theory of the stochastic mul...

Earthquakes and Animals: From Folk Legends to Science
ISBN: 9789812385918 / Angielski / Twarda / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Earthquakes and Animals brings objective science to bear on these old legends. But this is not the suspect science associated with recent attempts to validate UFO sightings. The book places in front of the reader the simple laboratory evidence for the behaviour of animals, plants and objects when they are subjected to intense electromagnetic pulses. In many cases they behave in ways that have been recorded for centuries -- and are still reported today -- as earthquake-related. Written for both the general public and scientists, Earthquakes and Animals demonstrates without mathematics and by...

Intraplate Earthquakes
ISBN: 9781107040380 / Angielski / Twarda / 398 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Intraplate earthquakes occur away from tectonic plate boundaries: their locations are difficult to predict, risking huge damage and loss of life. The 2001 Bhuj earthquake (featured in this book) was the largest intraplate earthquake for three decades and has provided unique insight into these events. This cutting-edge book brings together research from international leading experts in the field. Each chapter provides a comprehensive review of these earthquakes in a different global location, ranging from Australia, China, India and the Sea of Japan, to Western Europe, Brazil, New Madrid...

Advanced Networks, Algorithms and Modeling for Earthquake Prediction
ISBN: 9788792329578 / Angielski / Twarda / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Imagination depicts earthquakes as mysterious and magical events, but, as scientists, we also have to consider them from another, techincal perspective: they are natural phenomena that evolve with time and depend on a number of variables. With this in mind, we can start investigating the simplest and, at the same time, the most complex question: are earthquakes predictable?
If the answer is affirmative, what could the role of the extremely mature Information and Communication Technology (ICT) be in setting up an effective prediction process? How can artificial Intelligence... Imagination depicts earthquakes as mysterious and magical events, but, as scientists, we also have to consider them from another, techincal perspectiv...

Critical Review of Van, A: Earthquake Prediction from Seismic Electrical Signals
ISBN: 9789810225421 / Angielski / Twarda / 388 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The acronym VAN refers to Drs Varotsos, Alexopoulos and Nomicos, members of a group which have sought to use electric-field measurements between electrodes buried in the earth to predict earthquakes. This text questions such a "short-term" prediction method, offering arguments for and against.

Encyclopedia of Earthquake Research and Analysis: Volume I (Seismology and Geology)
ISBN: 9781632392343 / Angielski / Twarda / 418 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book covers various aspects of earthquake research. Based upon the earthquake's magnitude and the placement of its hypocenter, it has the capability to be extremely destructive. Seeing that earthquakes can cause much loss and death, it is crucial to understand the process and the physics behind this phenomenon. This book focuses on particular historical earthquakes and seismology in various tectonic surroundings and also includes a more applied study of the geology of earthquakes.

Earthquake Statistical Analysis Through Multi-State Modeling
ISBN: 9781786301505 / Angielski / Twarda / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is concerned with a number of central themes in a rapidly developing area, earthquake occurrence modelling. The book starts with an introductory chapter that sketches out the state-of-the-art earthquake modelling approaches based on Markov and semi-Markov models. In Chapter 2 the long-term seismogenesis is presented in association with the evolving stress field. The occurrence times of the earthquakes are considered to have been advanced, i.e. triggered by accumulated stress changes from past nearby earthquakes and tectonic loading on the major regional faults. Chapters 3 and 4...
