Difference between Hazards and Disaster:
Hazards: A hazard is any unusual event
that has a potential to threaten people’s
lives, their property and livelihoods. For
example, typhoons, floods, Earthquakes,
and fire are hazards.
Disasters: A hazard becomes a disaster
when it happens where many people are
living or have their livelihoods and causes
damage to them and their property. For
example, during a flood many people drown
or are injured, lose their animals and their
property.

Disaster Management
Difference between Hazards and Disaster:
▪ A hazard is a situation where there is a threat to life, health, environment or property.
▪A disaster is an event that completely disrupts the normal ways of a community. It
brings on human, economical, and environmental losses to the community which the
community cannot bear on its own.
▪Hazards are natural or manmade phenomenon that are a feature of our planet and
cannot be prevented. In their dormant state, hazards just pose a threat to life and
property.
▪ These hazards are termed as disasters when they cause widespread destruction of
property and human lives. Once a hazard becomes active and is no longer just a threat, it
becomes a disaster.
▪Both hazards and disasters are natural as well as manmade.
_We can prevent hazards becoming disasters if we learn to live in harmony with nature
and take precautionary steps.

Ancient Civilization Myths about
Earthquakes
• On average 10,000
people die each
year due to
earthquake
• An average of
almost 17,000
persons per year
were killed in the
twentieth Century
There are various folk tales about
earthquakes. Some of these include:
Greek Mythology: Poseidon, the
god of the sea, was also believed
to be the god of earthquakes. It
was said that when he is in a bad
mood, he would strike the
ground with his trident, causing
an earthquake.
It is said that he does
this when he is angry at the sins
of people or because of misdeeds
committed by humanity.

Earthquakes in mythology: Folk Tales
Africa:
In different parts of Africa, several
earthquake legends have arisen. In
West Africa, one of the most widely
spread earthquake-origin myths
considers the earth to be a flat disk,
which is held up by an enormous
mountain in the west. And in the east,
it is held by a giant, while the giant’s
wife holds up the sky. When the giant
stops to hug his wife, the earth
trembles and causes earthquakes.
https://quantectum.com/blog/earthquake-origin-myths-(part-2)/
Another West African myth talks about a giant who carries the earth on his head. All the plants
that grow on the Earth are his hair, and people and animals are the insects that crawl through
his hair. He usually sits and faces the east, but once in a while, he turns to the west and then
back to the east, with a jolt that is felt as an earthquake
In Norse mythology, the god Loki is
known for his mischief and trickery. He
was responsible for the death of the
god of beauty, Baldur, by using
mistletoe to kill him.
As a punishment, Loki was chained to
a rock with a venomous snake over his
head, and the venom constantly
dripped on his face.
Loki's wife, Sejin, tried to protect him
by catching the poison in a pot.
However, when the pot was full, Loki
would move to protect himself from
the falling poison, causing an
earthquake.

Causes of Earthquakes
➢Movement of Tectonic Plates
– Earth is divided into sections called Tectonic
plates that float on the fluid-like interior of the
Earth. Earthquakes are usually caused by
sudden movement of earth plates on the crust
– The major cause is the
stress build up of two
lithosphere plates.
– Volcanism
An earthquake is the vibration, sometimes violent, of the Earth's surface that follows a
release of energy in the Earth's crust
Fig. Structure of Earth (Composition)
Engineering seismology-CE240
Release of Accumulated energy
The point where it
originates is the
focus.
Its projection to the
surface is its
epicentre.
Depth to focus is the
focal depth.
An earthquake occurs when there is movement on a fault
Plate Tectonics: the Cause of
Earthquakes
Where Earthquakes Occur
Where Earthquakes Occur
Where Earthquakes Occur
Theory of plate tectonics is fundamental to understanding why and where earthquakes occur.
Large earthquakes frequently occur along the boundaries of plates
How do rocks deform?
Elastic rebound
As the rock is deformed, it
bends storing elastic
energy. Once strained
beyond it breaking point, it
ruptures, releasing stored
up energy in the form of
earthquake waves

.
Soil Liquefaction
▪ Soil liquefaction is a phenomenon in which the strength and
stiffness of a soil is reduced by earthquake shaking or other
rapid loading.
▪ This happens in saturated and cohesion-less soils when
increased pore water pressures lead to a decrease in strength.
▪ As a result, the soil behaves like a liquid (for a short period of
time), which can compromise the support provided to buildings
and other structures.
▪ The consequences of liquefaction include flooding, sandblows,
and damage to structures and utilities.

Earthquake Destruction: Fire
Earthquakes sometimes cause
fire due to broken gas lines,
contributing to the loss of life
and economy.
The destruction of lifelines and
utilities make impossible for
firefighters to reach fires started and
make the situation worse
eg. 1989 Loma Prieta
1906 San Francisco
Earthquake Destruction: Tsunamis
▪Tsunamis can be generated when the sea floor abruptly deforms and
vertically displaces the overlying water.
▪The water above the deformed area is displaced from its equilibrium
position. Waves are formed as the displaced water mass, which acts
under the influence of gravity, attempts to regain its equilibrium.
▪Tsunami travels at a speed that is related to the water depth - hence, as
the water depth decreases, the tsunami slows.
▪The tsunami's energy flux, which is dependent on both its wave speed
and wave height, remains nearly constant.
▪Consequently, as the tsunami's speed diminishes as it travels into
shallower water, its height grows. Because of this effect, a tsunami,
imperceptible at sea, may grow to be several meters or more in height
near the coast and can flood a vast area.

Tsunami Movement: ~600 mph in deep water
~250 mph in medium depth water

Compressional Wave (P-Wave) Animation
Deformation propagates: Particle motion consists of alternating
compression and dilation. Particle motion is parallel to the
direction of propagation (longitudinal). Material returns to its
original shape after wave passes.
82
Shear Wave (S-Wave) Animation
Deformation propagates: Particle motion consists of alternating transverse
motion. Particle motion is perpendicular to the direction of propagation
(transverse). Transverse particle motion shown here is vertical but can be in
any direction. However, Earth’s layers tend to cause mostly vertical (SV; in the
vertical plane) or horizontal (SH) shear motions. Material returns to its original
shape after wave passes.
83
Rayleigh Wave (R-Wave) Animation
Deformation propagates: Particle motion consists of elliptical motions
(generally retrograde elliptical) in the vertical plane and parallel to the
direction of propagation. Amplitude decreases with depth. Material returns
to its original shape after wave passes.
84
Love Wave (L-Wave) Animation
Deformation propagates: Particle motion consists of alternating transverse
motions. Particle motion is horizontal and perpendicular to the direction of
propagation (transverse). To aid in seeing that the particle motion is purely
horizontal, focus on the Y axis (red line) as the wave propagates through it.
Amplitude decreases with depth. Material returns to its original shape after
wave passes.
Earthquake Size
• Earthquake size is expressed in several ways
– Qualitative or Non instrumented
– Quantitative or Instrumental measurements
• Intensity
• Magnitudes
– Local magnitude (ML) / Richter magnitude
– Surface wave magnitude (MS)
– Body wave magnitude (mb)
• Body wave magnitude (mbLg)
– Coda magnitude (MC)
– Moment magnitude (Mw)
Intensity
• How Strong Earthquake Feels to Observer
– Qualitative assessment of the kinds of damage done by
an earthquake
– Developed by M.S.de Rossi-Italy and Francois Forel-
Switzerland in 1880’s
– Depends on distance to earthquake, strength of
earthquake, and local geology
– Determined from the intensity of shaking and damage
from the earthquake
– The descriptive scale continues to be important,
• First because in many seismic regions there are no seismographs to
measure strong ground motion, and
• Second, because the long historical record from seismically active
countries is founded on such descriptions.
Types of Earthquake Intensity scale
• Mercalli-Cancani-Seiberg (MCS): 12- level scale used in southern Europe
• Modified Mercalli (MMI): 12-level scale proposed in 1931 by wood and
Neumann, who adapted the MCS scale to the California data set. It is used
in north America and several other countries
• Medvedev-Sponheuer-Karnik (MSK): 12- level scale adopted in central
and Eastern Europe and used in several other countries
• European Macrosiesmic Scale (EMS): 12- level scale adopted since 1998 in
Europe. It is a development of the MM scale
• Japanese Meteorological Agency (JMA): 7-level scale used in Japan. It has
been revised over the years and has recently been correlated to maximum
horizontal acceleration of the ground.
• Road Damage Intensity Scale (RDIS) : 5-level scale specially developed for
roads. Useful for seismic vulnerability assessment of transportation
network.
Modified Mercalli Scale
Engineering seismology-CE 240
I. Instrumental Generally not felt by people unless in favorable conditions.
II. Weak
Felt only by a few people at best, especially on the upper floors of buildings. Delicately suspended objects may
swing.
III. Slight
Felt quite noticeably by people indoors, especially on the upper floors of buildings. Many do not recognize it as
an earthquake. Standing motor cars may rock slightly. Vibration similar to the passing of a truck. Duration
estimated.
IV. Moderate
Felt indoors by many people, outdoors by few people during the day. At night, some awaken. Dishes, windows,
doors disturbed; walls make cracking sound. Sensation like heavy truck striking building. Standing motor cars
rock noticeably. Dishes and windows rattle alarmingly.
V. Rather Strong
Felt outside by most, may not be felt by some outside in non-favorable conditions. Dishes and windows may
break and large bells will ring. Vibrations like large train passing close to house.
VI. Strong
Felt by all; many frightened and run outdoors, walk unsteadily. Windows, dishes, glassware broken; books fall
off shelves; some heavy furniture moved or overturned; a few instances of fallen plaster. Damage slight.
VII. Very Strong
Difficult to stand; furniture broken; damage negligible in building of good design and construction; slight to
moderate in well-built ordinary structures; considerable damage in poorly built or badly designed structures;
some chimneys broken. Noticed by people driving motor cars.
VIII. Destructive
Damage slight in specially designed structures; considerable in ordinary substantial buildings with partial
collapse. Damage great in poorly built structures. Fall of chimneys, factory stacks, columns, monuments, walls.
Heavy furniture moved.
IX. Violent
General panic; damage considerable in specially designed structures, well designed frame structures thrown
out of plumb. Damage great in substantial buildings, with partial collapse. Buildings shifted off foundations.
X. Intense
Some well built wooden structures destroyed; most masonry and frame structures destroyed with foundation.
Rails bent.
XI. Extreme Few, if any masonry structures remain standing. Bridges destroyed. Rails bent greatly.
XII. Cataclysmic
Total destruction - Everything is destroyed. Lines of sight and level distorted. Objects thrown into the air. The
ground moves in waves or ripples. Large amounts of rock move position. Landscape altered, or leveled by
several meters. In some cases, even the routes of rivers are changed.
❖ If the sizes of earthquakes are to be compared worldwide, a
measure is needed that does not depend (as does intensity) on
the density of population and type of construction.
❖ A strictly quantitative scale of size that can be applied to
earthquakes in both inhabited and uninhabited regions was
originated in 1931 by K. Wadati in Japan and developed by the
late Professor Charles Richter in 1935 in California.
❖ The scheme is to use the wave amplitudes measured by a
seismograph.
❖ This idea is similar to that of astronomers who grade the size of
stars using a stellar magnitude scale based on the relative
brightness seen through a telescope.
Magnitude
– Related to Energy Release.
– Quantitative measurement of the amount of energy released by an
earthquake
– Depends on the size of the fault that breaks
– Determined from seismic records
Richter magnitude
• The magnitude of a local earthquake is the logarithm to base 10 of the
maximum seismic-wave amplitude (in thousandths of a millimeter )
recorded on a standard seismograph at a distance of 100 kilometers
from the epicenter.
• Because earthquake sources are located at all distances from
seismographic stations, Richter further developed a method of making
allowance for this attenuation With epicentral distance when calculating
the Richter magnitude of an earthquake.
• An uncomplicated earthquake record clearly shows a P wave, an S wave,
and a train of Rayleigh waves. (The seismogram shows only the vertical
component of the ground motion.) Now, if Richter's procedure for
determining local magnitude were followed, we would measure the
amplitude of the largest of the three waves and then make some
adjustment for epicentral distance and the magnification of the
seismograph.
▪ The moment magnitude scale (Mw) is a measure of an earthquake's magnitude based
on its seismic moment, which is a product of the distance a fault moved and the force
required to move it. It is calculated using the formula Mw = 2/3 * log(M0) - 10.7, where
M0 is the seismic moment in dyne⋅cm. The moment magnitude scale is considered the
authoritative magnitude scale for ranking earthquakes by the U.S. Geological Survey and
is more directly related to the energy of an earthquake than other scales. It does not
saturate and is capable of measuring larger earthquakes accurately.
▪ On the other hand, the Richter scale is an older magnitude scale that measures the
amplitude of seismic waves. It was found to not transfer very well from the San Andreas
fault zone to more powerful earthquakes that occur at convergent plate boundaries,
particularly subduction zone earthquakes. Therefore, the moment magnitude scale is
now preferred because it takes more factors into account, including the total area of
the fault that moves, and is applicable globally.
▪ In summary, the moment magnitude scale is more accurate for measuring a wider range
of earthquake sizes and is considered the standard scale used by seismological
authorities like the U.S. Geological Survey, while the Richter scale is less effective for
larger earthquakes and has been largely replaced by the moment magnitude scale.

▪The largest reservoir induced earthquake is a magnitude 6.7 Koyna earthquake of 1967
occurred in western India (Gupta and Rastogi, 1976).
▪This earthquake took place due to the Koyna dam after its construction and water filling
for the first three years. This earthquake caused a loss of about 200 human lives.

After the Earthquake
• Steps to follow after the
shaking stops:
- checking for injuries
- assessing damage
- listening to the radio/news
for updates
- turning off utilities
- help those in need
What to do if you are trapped
under debris after an earthquake
What to do if you are trapped under debris
after an earthquake
• Minimize Movement: Kicking up dust can
impair rescue efforts
• Cover Your Mouth: Use a cloth or
handkerchief to filter air
• Tap on a Pipe or Wall: Rescue teams can
locate you by sound
• Use a Whistle: A whistle carries farther than
shouting
• Stay Calm: Conserving energy helps you
survive longer
• Conserve Energy: Save strength for
signaling and self-rescue attempts
• Call for Help: Send texts or tap on a pipe to
alert rescuers
• Be Patient: Wait for trained professionals to
arrive

  • 4. Disaster Management Introduction ▪Disaster word is originated from the French word “Desastre”: Des – Bad, Astre – Star; Bad Star/Evil Star
  • 5. Disaster Management Introduction (82.2 % population are disaster prone)
  • 11. Disaster Management • Video Clips: Kolkata Bridge Collapse, Oil Spill
  • 13. Disaster Management Difference between Hazards and Disaster: Hazards: A hazard is any unusual event that has a potential to threaten people’s lives, their property and livelihoods. For example, typhoons, floods, Earthquakes, and fire are hazards. Disasters: A hazard becomes a disaster when it happens where many people are living or have their livelihoods and causes damage to them and their property. For example, during a flood many people drown or are injured, lose their animals and their property.
  • 15. Disaster Management Difference between Hazards and Disaster: ▪ A hazard is a situation where there is a threat to life, health, environment or property. ▪A disaster is an event that completely disrupts the normal ways of a community. It brings on human, economical, and environmental losses to the community which the community cannot bear on its own. ▪Hazards are natural or manmade phenomenon that are a feature of our planet and cannot be prevented. In their dormant state, hazards just pose a threat to life and property. ▪ These hazards are termed as disasters when they cause widespread destruction of property and human lives. Once a hazard becomes active and is no longer just a threat, it becomes a disaster. ▪Both hazards and disasters are natural as well as manmade. _We can prevent hazards becoming disasters if we learn to live in harmony with nature and take precautionary steps.
  • 20. • Video Clips_Earthquake_Japan 2024, Nepal 2015, Turkey 2023
  • 22. Disaster Management ▪ All form of landform exist in India: Mountains, Plateaus, Plain Areas, Coastal Areas, Desert
  • 23. The country experiences a variety of climates ranging from tropical in the south to temperate and alpine in the Himalayan north. India hosts six major climatic subtypes, ranging from arid deserts in the west, alpine tundra and glaciers in the north, and humid tropical regions supporting rainforests in the southwest and the island territories.
  • 24. • Mountains: Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, and Tripura. • Plateaus: Deccan Plateau (covers most of the southern part of India), Chota Nagpur Plateau (Jharkhand), Malwa Plateau (Madhya Pradesh), and Meghalaya Plateau (Meghalaya). • Plain Areas: Indo-Gangetic Plain (covers most of northern and eastern India), Malwa Plains (Madhya Pradesh), and Gujarat Plain (Gujarat). • Coastal Areas: Gujarat, Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, West Bengal, and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. •Desert: Thar Desert (Rajasthan).

  • 35. Ancient Civilization Myths about Earthquakes • On average 10,000 people die each year due to earthquake • An average of almost 17,000 persons per year were killed in the twentieth Century
  • 36. There are various folk tales about earthquakes. Some of these include: Greek Mythology: Poseidon, the god of the sea, was also believed to be the god of earthquakes. It was said that when he is in a bad mood, he would strike the ground with his trident, causing an earthquake. It is said that he does this when he is angry at the sins of people or because of misdeeds committed by humanity. Earthquakes in mythology: Folk Tales https://www.crystalinks.com/earthquakes-mythology.html
  • 37. Earthquakes in mythology: Folk Tales Africa: In different parts of Africa, several earthquake legends have arisen. In West Africa, one of the most widely spread earthquake-origin myths considers the earth to be a flat disk, which is held up by an enormous mountain in the west. And in the east, it is held by a giant, while the giant’s wife holds up the sky. When the giant stops to hug his wife, the earth trembles and causes earthquakes. https://quantectum.com/blog/earthquake-origin-myths-(part-2)/ Another West African myth talks about a giant who carries the earth on his head. All the plants that grow on the Earth are his hair, and people and animals are the insects that crawl through his hair. He usually sits and faces the east, but once in a while, he turns to the west and then back to the east, with a jolt that is felt as an earthquake
  • 38. In Norse mythology, the god Loki is known for his mischief and trickery. He was responsible for the death of the god of beauty, Baldur, by using mistletoe to kill him. As a punishment, Loki was chained to a rock with a venomous snake over his head, and the venom constantly dripped on his face. Loki's wife, Sejin, tried to protect him by catching the poison in a pot. However, when the pot was full, Loki would move to protect himself from the falling poison, causing an earthquake. Earthquakes in mythology: Folk Tales https://bavipower.com/blogs/bavipower-viking-blog/why-earthquake-happened-in-norse-mythology
  • 39. Causes of Earthquakes ➢Movement of Tectonic Plates – Earth is divided into sections called Tectonic plates that float on the fluid-like interior of the Earth. Earthquakes are usually caused by sudden movement of earth plates on the crust – The major cause is the stress build up of two lithosphere plates. – Volcanism An earthquake is the vibration, sometimes violent, of the Earth's surface that follows a release of energy in the Earth's crust
  • 40. Fig. Structure of Earth (Composition)
  • 41.
  • 43. The point where it originates is the focus. Its projection to the surface is its epicentre. Depth to focus is the focal depth. An earthquake occurs when there is movement on a fault
  • 44. Plate Tectonics: the Cause of Earthquakes Where Earthquakes Occur Where Earthquakes Occur Where Earthquakes Occur Theory of plate tectonics is fundamental to understanding why and where earthquakes occur. Large earthquakes frequently occur along the boundaries of plates
  • 45. How do rocks deform? Elastic rebound As the rock is deformed, it bends storing elastic energy. Once strained beyond it breaking point, it ruptures, releasing stored up energy in the form of earthquake waves
  • 46. List of Earthquake Hazards • Ground Shaking • Ground Displacement • Flooding • Land slide • Liquefaction • Fire • Tsunami • ????????? Direct Hazards Induced Hazards
  • 47. The Effect of Ground Shaking • The first main earthquake hazard (danger) is the effect of ground shaking. Buildings can be damaged by the shaking itself These men barely escaped when the front of the Anchorage J.C. Penny's collapsed during the 1964 Good Friday earthquake.

  • 64. . . .
  • 65.
  • 66. Soil Liquefaction ▪ Soil liquefaction is a phenomenon in which the strength and stiffness of a soil is reduced by earthquake shaking or other rapid loading. ▪ This happens in saturated and cohesion-less soils when increased pore water pressures lead to a decrease in strength. ▪ As a result, the soil behaves like a liquid (for a short period of time), which can compromise the support provided to buildings and other structures. ▪ The consequences of liquefaction include flooding, sandblows, and damage to structures and utilities.
  • 67. Liquefaction in Tripura due to 2017 Tripura Earthquake More Details: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11069-019-03699-w Reconnaissance report on geotechnical effects and structural damage caused by the 3 January 2017 Tripura earthquake, India. P Anbazhagan, Kunjari Mog ….

(Photo from: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/seg/hazard/s lideset/1/1_slides.html)
  • 71. Earthquake Destruction: Fire Earthquakes sometimes cause fire due to broken gas lines, contributing to the loss of life and economy. The destruction of lifelines and utilities make impossible for firefighters to reach fires started and make the situation worse eg. 1989 Loma Prieta 1906 San Francisco
  • 72. Earthquake Destruction: Tsunamis ▪Tsunamis can be generated when the sea floor abruptly deforms and vertically displaces the overlying water. ▪The water above the deformed area is displaced from its equilibrium position. Waves are formed as the displaced water mass, which acts under the influence of gravity, attempts to regain its equilibrium. ▪Tsunami travels at a speed that is related to the water depth - hence, as the water depth decreases, the tsunami slows. ▪The tsunami's energy flux, which is dependent on both its wave speed and wave height, remains nearly constant. ▪Consequently, as the tsunami's speed diminishes as it travels into shallower water, its height grows. Because of this effect, a tsunami, imperceptible at sea, may grow to be several meters or more in height near the coast and can flood a vast area.
  • 73. Tsunami Tsunami Movement: ~600 mph in deep water ~250 mph in medium depth water ~35 mph in shallow water

  • 81. 81 Compressional Wave (P-Wave) Animation Deformation propagates: Particle motion consists of alternating compression and dilation. Particle motion is parallel to the direction of propagation (longitudinal). Material returns to its original shape after wave passes.
  • 82. 82 Shear Wave (S-Wave) Animation Deformation propagates: Particle motion consists of alternating transverse motion. Particle motion is perpendicular to the direction of propagation (transverse). Transverse particle motion shown here is vertical but can be in any direction. However, Earth’s layers tend to cause mostly vertical (SV; in the vertical plane) or horizontal (SH) shear motions. Material returns to its original shape after wave passes.
  • 83. 83 Rayleigh Wave (R-Wave) Animation Deformation propagates: Particle motion consists of elliptical motions (generally retrograde elliptical) in the vertical plane and parallel to the direction of propagation. Amplitude decreases with depth. Material returns to its original shape after wave passes.
  • 84. 84 Love Wave (L-Wave) Animation Deformation propagates: Particle motion consists of alternating transverse motions. Particle motion is horizontal and perpendicular to the direction of propagation (transverse). To aid in seeing that the particle motion is purely horizontal, focus on the Y axis (red line) as the wave propagates through it. Amplitude decreases with depth. Material returns to its original shape after wave passes.

  • 87. Earthquake Size • Earthquake size is expressed in several ways – Qualitative or Non instrumented – Quantitative or Instrumental measurements • Intensity • Magnitudes – Local magnitude (ML) / Richter magnitude – Surface wave magnitude (MS) – Body wave magnitude (mb) • Body wave magnitude (mbLg) – Coda magnitude (MC) – Moment magnitude (Mw)
  • 88. Intensity • How Strong Earthquake Feels to Observer – Qualitative assessment of the kinds of damage done by an earthquake – Developed by M.S.de Rossi-Italy and Francois Forel- Switzerland in 1880’s – Depends on distance to earthquake, strength of earthquake, and local geology – Determined from the intensity of shaking and damage from the earthquake – The descriptive scale continues to be important, • First because in many seismic regions there are no seismographs to measure strong ground motion, and • Second, because the long historical record from seismically active countries is founded on such descriptions.
  • 89. Types of Earthquake Intensity scale • Mercalli-Cancani-Seiberg (MCS): 12- level scale used in southern Europe • Modified Mercalli (MMI): 12-level scale proposed in 1931 by wood and Neumann, who adapted the MCS scale to the California data set. It is used in north America and several other countries • Medvedev-Sponheuer-Karnik (MSK): 12- level scale adopted in central and Eastern Europe and used in several other countries • European Macrosiesmic Scale (EMS): 12- level scale adopted since 1998 in Europe. It is a development of the MM scale • Japanese Meteorological Agency (JMA): 7-level scale used in Japan. It has been revised over the years and has recently been correlated to maximum horizontal acceleration of the ground. • Road Damage Intensity Scale (RDIS) : 5-level scale specially developed for roads. Useful for seismic vulnerability assessment of transportation network.
  • 91. Engineering seismology-CE 240 I. Instrumental Generally not felt by people unless in favorable conditions. II. Weak Felt only by a few people at best, especially on the upper floors of buildings. Delicately suspended objects may swing. III. Slight Felt quite noticeably by people indoors, especially on the upper floors of buildings. Many do not recognize it as an earthquake. Standing motor cars may rock slightly. Vibration similar to the passing of a truck. Duration estimated. IV. Moderate Felt indoors by many people, outdoors by few people during the day. At night, some awaken. Dishes, windows, doors disturbed; walls make cracking sound. Sensation like heavy truck striking building. Standing motor cars rock noticeably. Dishes and windows rattle alarmingly. V. Rather Strong Felt outside by most, may not be felt by some outside in non-favorable conditions. Dishes and windows may break and large bells will ring. Vibrations like large train passing close to house. VI. Strong Felt by all; many frightened and run outdoors, walk unsteadily. Windows, dishes, glassware broken; books fall off shelves; some heavy furniture moved or overturned; a few instances of fallen plaster. Damage slight. VII. Very Strong Difficult to stand; furniture broken; damage negligible in building of good design and construction; slight to moderate in well-built ordinary structures; considerable damage in poorly built or badly designed structures; some chimneys broken. Noticed by people driving motor cars. VIII. Destructive Damage slight in specially designed structures; considerable in ordinary substantial buildings with partial collapse. Damage great in poorly built structures. Fall of chimneys, factory stacks, columns, monuments, walls. Heavy furniture moved. IX. Violent General panic; damage considerable in specially designed structures, well designed frame structures thrown out of plumb. Damage great in substantial buildings, with partial collapse. Buildings shifted off foundations. X. Intense Some well built wooden structures destroyed; most masonry and frame structures destroyed with foundation. Rails bent. XI. Extreme Few, if any masonry structures remain standing. Bridges destroyed. Rails bent greatly. XII. Cataclysmic Total destruction - Everything is destroyed. Lines of sight and level distorted. Objects thrown into the air. The ground moves in waves or ripples. Large amounts of rock move position. Landscape altered, or leveled by several meters. In some cases, even the routes of rivers are changed.
  • 92. ❖ If the sizes of earthquakes are to be compared worldwide, a measure is needed that does not depend (as does intensity) on the density of population and type of construction. ❖ A strictly quantitative scale of size that can be applied to earthquakes in both inhabited and uninhabited regions was originated in 1931 by K. Wadati in Japan and developed by the late Professor Charles Richter in 1935 in California. ❖ The scheme is to use the wave amplitudes measured by a seismograph. ❖ This idea is similar to that of astronomers who grade the size of stars using a stellar magnitude scale based on the relative brightness seen through a telescope.

  • 93. – Related to Energy Release. – Quantitative measurement of the amount of energy released by an earthquake – Depends on the size of the fault that breaks – Determined from seismic records Richter magnitude • The magnitude of a local earthquake is the logarithm to base 10 of the maximum seismic-wave amplitude (in thousandths of a millimeter ) recorded on a standard seismograph at a distance of 100 kilometers from the epicenter. • Because earthquake sources are located at all distances from seismographic stations, Richter further developed a method of making allowance for this attenuation With epicentral distance when calculating the Richter magnitude of an earthquake. • An uncomplicated earthquake record clearly shows a P wave, an S wave, and a train of Rayleigh waves. (The seismogram shows only the vertical component of the ground motion.) Now, if Richter's procedure for determining local magnitude were followed, we would measure the amplitude of the largest of the three waves and then make some adjustment for epicentral distance and the magnification of the seismograph.
  • 94. ▪ The moment magnitude scale (Mw) is a measure of an earthquake's magnitude based on its seismic moment, which is a product of the distance a fault moved and the force required to move it. It is calculated using the formula Mw = 2/3 * log(M0) - 10.7, where M0 is the seismic moment in dyne⋅cm. The moment magnitude scale is considered the authoritative magnitude scale for ranking earthquakes by the U.S. Geological Survey and is more directly related to the energy of an earthquake than other scales. It does not saturate and is capable of measuring larger earthquakes accurately. ▪ On the other hand, the Richter scale is an older magnitude scale that measures the amplitude of seismic waves. It was found to not transfer very well from the San Andreas fault zone to more powerful earthquakes that occur at convergent plate boundaries, particularly subduction zone earthquakes. Therefore, the moment magnitude scale is now preferred because it takes more factors into account, including the total area of the fault that moves, and is applicable globally. ▪ In summary, the moment magnitude scale is more accurate for measuring a wider range of earthquake sizes and is considered the standard scale used by seismological authorities like the U.S. Geological Survey, while the Richter scale is less effective for larger earthquakes and has been largely replaced by the moment magnitude scale.
