description: Specifically focused on earthquake-resistant design, this book addresses essential issues and engineering applications of strong ground seismology. Its application-oriented style includes detailed coverage of source, physics, wave propagation, recording, characteristics, synthetic stimulation, and all approaches of ground motion simulations. It also provides a clear link between seismology, geophysics, and engineering, which has far-reaching applications in earthquake resistant design code and performance based design requirements. Written with a didactic approach, this text offers a concise resource of information that fills the gap between earthquake engineering and seismology.
