Harmonization of Seismic Hazard in Vrancea Zone with Special Emphasis on Seismic Risk Reduction /

This volume summarizes the main findings of the NATO Science for Peace Project SfP-980468 Harmonization of Seismic Hazard and Risk Reduction in Countries Influenced by Vrancea Earthquakes. It addresses the problems of regional seismic hazard assessment, its application to the Vrancea zone that influ...
