Online IISEE Seminar by Dr.Md.Shafuil ISLAM(Mar.12th)
By Dr. Tatsuya Azuhata, Director of IISEEOn Friday, March 12th, we held the online IISEE seminar forearthquake engineering to exchange information on thecurrent status of earthquake disaster mitigation measures
between the present and past IISEE training course
participants and IISEE staff. To trigger the discussion, we
asked Dr. Md. Shafiul ISLAM to give us his lecture.
Shafiul san is an ex-participant of the IISEE (2014-2015.)
and earned his doctor's degree from Tohoku University twoyears ago. His lecture's title was "A rapid seismic evaluation
method and recent activities on earthquake disastermitigation measures in Bangladesh." From the IISEE, Dr.
Azuhata introduced recent seismic research topics in Japanand the current status of this year's training course. After thepresentations, we discussed each other freely using SpatialChat.
For this seminar, we invited ex-participants only from Latin
America considering time differences. Nine ex-participants
attended the workshop.
