 | Dr. Norman Abrahamson's talk, "Incorporating Effects of Near Fault Tectonic | |
| Deformation into Design Ground Motions". The presentation is hosted by the University at Buffalo Earthquake Engineering Research Institute Student Chapter (UB-EERI), and provides the opportunity to listen to the speaker and see the powerpoint at the same time. An excellent application of the internet in education! |
Resources - Data
| PEER Strong Motion Database for Engineering applications. A very good | |
| database based on the work of Dr. Walt Silva, with more than 1500 records from 143 earthquake events. A very useful resource for any earthquake engineer. |
| European Strong Motion Data. Data from the Collaboration of Imperial College of | |
| Science, Technology and Medicine, (United Kingdom), Institute of Engineering Seismology and Earthquake Engineering, (Greece), University of Iceland, Reykjavik, University of Trieste, (Italy). |
