The book aims to educate the readers with information regarding the field of earthquake engineering. The mitigation of earthquake-related hazards is essential in the modern society. The mitigation of such kind of hazards extends from detailed studies on seismicity, assessment of sites affected and seismo-induced landslides. It also expands from analysis of disasters like tsunami along with the design and analysis of structures to refrain such actions. The study of earthquakes integrates science, technology and expertise in infrastructure and engineering in an endeavor to curtail human and material losses due to earthquakes. This book deals with a variety of topics aiming to mitigate geo-hazards like seismic hazard analysis, ground investigation for seismic design, seismic design, assessment and remediation, earthquake site response evaluation and soil-structure interaction assessment.
