Seismic retrofit — Seismic retrofitting is the modification of existing structures to make them more resistant to seismic activity, ground motion, or soil failure due to earthquakes. Other retrofit techniques are applicable to areas subject to tropical cyclones,… … Wikipedia
Seismic response of landfill — Solid waste landfills can be affected by seismic activity. The tension in a landfill liner rises significantly during an earthquake, and can lead to stretching or tearing of the material.[1] The top of the landfill may crack, and methane… … Wikipedia
Seismic hazard — refers to the study of expected earthquake ground motions at the earth s surface, and its likely effects on existing natural conditions and man made structures for public safety considerations; the results of such studies are published as seismic … Wikipedia
Seismic microzonation — map of Greater Bangkok prepared based on predominant period of site obtained from microtremor observations [1] Main article: Earthquake engineering Seismic microzonation is defined as the process … Wikipedia
Seismic refraction — is a geophysical principle (see refraction) governed by Snell s Law. Used in the fields of engineering geology, geotechnical engineering and exploration geophysics, seismic refraction traverses (seismic lines) are performed using a seismograph(s) … Wikipedia
Seismic scale — A seismic scale is used to measure and compare the severity of earthquakes. (For a quick review, see the table of seismic scales at the end of this article.)Two fundamentally different but equally important types of scales are commonly used by… … Wikipedia
Seismic exploration — is a set of geophysical methods of exploration based on a study of artificially induced waves of elastic vibrations propagating in the Earth crust. It is one of the geophysical exploration methods leading in terms of diversity of tasks to be… … Glossary of Oil and Gas
Mitigation of seismic motion — Main article: Earthquake engineering Mitigation of seismic motion is an important factor in earthquake engineering and construction in earthquake prone areas. The destabilizing action of an earthquake on constructions may be direct (seismic… … Wikipedia
