An earthquake is the sudden
movement of the Earth's tectonic
plates, resulting in shaking of the
ground. This shaking can result in the
damage of various structures such as
buildings and further breakdown of the
Earth's surface.

• A Chain of fast moving waves in
the Ocean caused by powerful
earthquakes is a very serious
challenge for people's safety and
for Earthquake Engineering . Those
waves can inundate coastal areas,
destroy houses and even swipe
away whole towns .
