Interim presentation held on July 3
By Dr. Tatsuya Azuhata, Director of IISEE
On July 3, we held an interim presentation session as a part of individual training. In this presentation, we requested all participants to present the interim results of their study. And we think this session allows them to practice their research presentations. The session consisted of S- and T- courses together and E-course separately. To prevent corona infection, we took measures such as using a larger room than usual years. We want all participants to continue to devote themselves to the research and take good care of their health not to waste their efforts. Januario from Timor-Leste, Tsunami Disaster Mitigation course from Philippines, Earthquake Engineering course Mongolia, Seismology course Alexander from El Salvador, Earthquake Engineering course Call for Papers IISEE Bulletin is now accepting submissions of papers for the seis- mology, earthquake engineering, and tsunami. Developing countries are targeted, but are not limited. Your original papers will be reviewed by the editorial members and some experts. NO submission fee is needed. Try to challenge!

Donation of book
By Dr. Tatsuya Azuhata, Director of IISEE We have received the book donated by Dr. Krishna Gopal Bhatia, who participated in the advanced earthquake engineering course (1969-1970) of the IISEE from India. The title, etc. of the book are as follows. Title: Foundations for Industrial Machines Handbook for Practicing Engineers Author: Krishna Gopal Bhatia Publisher: D-CAD Publishers ISBN: 978-8190603225 The first version was issued in 2008: The second (latest) in 2011. We can read this book anytime in the IISEE library. We think that it provides us useful insights into earthquake engineering research and in- depth knowledge about vibrations. It is also available on the internet shop site like AMAZON. If you are interested in it, please search there. We sincerely appreciate Dr. Krishna Gopal Bhatia for his kind support for the IISEE.
Newly released book
By Dr. Tatsuya Azuhata, Director of IISEE We received the message from Dr. Andrés Alfaro Castillo, an ex-participant (2004-2005 Seismology Course) of IISEE, from Colombia. He said that he had published a book of engineering seismology in Spanish. The title, etc. are as follows. Title: Ingeniería Sismológica-Versión Revisada (Spanish Edition) Author: Andrés Alfaro Castillo Publisher: Art and Literature Mapalé & Publishing Inc. ISBN: 978-1988691237 We think that this book plays the role of the interface between seismology and earthquake engineering. According to his comment, it includes what he learned in the IISEE training course. The book is available on the internet shop site like AMAZON. We, IISEE, welcome information on such activities of ex-participants as publishing books, being awarded, obtaining academic titles and so on.
