This book first focuses on the explanation of the theory about
focal mechanisms and moment tensor solutions and their role in the
modern seismology. The second part of the book compiles several
state-of-the-art case studies in different seismotectonic settings
of the planet.The assessment of seismic hazard and the reduction of
losses due to future earthquakes is probably the most important
contribution of seismology to society. In this regard, the
understanding of reliable determination seismic source and of its
uncertainty can play a key role in contributing to geodynamic
investigation, seismic hazard assessment and earthquake studies. In
the last two decades, the use of waveforms recorded at
local-to-regional distances has increased considerably. Waveform
modeling has been used also to estimate faulting parameters of
small-to-moderate sized earthquakes.
