Earthquake and tsunami disasters have been increasing rapidly and globally in the last quarter-century. The purpose of this book is to provide essential knowledge and information on the mitigation of earthquakes and tsunamis for graduate students, young researchers, and geotechnical engineers. It begins by presenting recent cases of earthquakes that have occurred in the world, referring to tsunamis and soil liquefaction and how to cope with such disasters. The final chapter proposes strategies for disaster mitigation against in Japan earthquakes and tsunamis in the future.
Recent Earthquake and Tsunami Disasters Worldwide.- Earthquake-resistant Design and Reinforcement.- Soil Liquefaction and Countermeasures.- Liquefaction-Induced Ground Displacements: Damage and Countermeasures.- Dynamic Behaviors of Underground Structures during Earthquakes and Earthquake-Resistant Design.- Mitigation Measures against Future Natural Disasters.
Provides essential knowledge and information on mitigation of damage caused by earthquakes and tsunamis Focuses on earthquakes and tsunamis not only in Japan but worldwide Discusses the mechanism of soil liquefaction and countermeasures based on case studies Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
