المصدر: Earthquakes and Tsunamis في منتدى : العلوم العامة والبرامج العلمية Earthquakes and Tsunamis Springer | June 30, 2009 | ISBN-10: 9048123984 | 218 pages | PDF | 13 mb Earthquakes and tsunamis are two major natural disasters, causing enormous life and material losses over the entire world, especially in the developing countries that are not well prepared. Since earthquakes and tsunamis are natural phenomena that cannot be prevented, a series of measures need to be taken to minimize the losses. Disaster mitigation covers a wide variety of activities involving numerous disciplines. Civil engineering makes probably the most effective contribution to the mitigation of life and material losses in earthquakes and tsunamis.
