This volume contains the most relevant peer-reviewed papers
presented at The First International Workshop on Vrancea
Earthquakes, held in Bucharest on November 1-4, 1997. Strong
earthquakes in the Romanian Vrancea area have caused a high toll of
casualties and extensive damage over the last several centuries.
With a moment magnitude of 7.4, the 1977 earthquake caused more
than 1500 casualties, the majority of them in Bucharest. The
contributions address key problems of seismotectonics of the
Vrancea area and related strong ground motion, hazard assessment,
site effects and microzonation, structural damage and earthquake
resistant design, risk assessment and disaster management from an
international and regional perspective. This list of topics shows
the diverse contributions from the multidisciplinary fields of
geosciences, geophysics, seismology, geology, civil engineering,
city planning, and emergency relief practices. This book is of
value for scientists interested in earthquake hazard and seismic
risk research as well as for seismologists, geophysicists and Earth
scientists. It is also useful for authorities responsible for
public safety and natural hazard mitigation plans and for insurance
companies.
