Children and the Earthquake in Turkey Photographs taken in the earthquake area Childrens writings about the earthquake Childrens painting and drawing about the earthquake The Turkey Research Centre translated a series of essays by Turkish schoolchildren about the August 17 1999 earthquake that killed some 18,000 people in Yalova, Izmit, Golcuk and Adapazari areas of Turkey. Since these essays were written, another earthquake in the nearby area around Bolu and Duzce on November 12th has killed another 800 people and left thousands homeless, some for the second time. The childrens' essays give an idea of the impact of the disaster. In response to many requests, we have now added to this site photographs taken during visits to the earthquake area by Turkey Research Centre volunteers. We hope to add more childrens' pictures soon.

Check out this site run by the California Geological Survey. Question - What is the difference between the HYPOCENTER and the EPICENTER? Earthquakes occur when two pieces of the earth snap past each other along a fault. That fault is actually a crack that extends deep into the earth. The HYPOCENTER is the point where the earthquake rupture begins, usually deep below the surface on this fault. The EPICENTER is the point on the surface directly above the hypocenter. Question - What was the largest earthquake?

Click on this line to contact or consult for projects and research (academic) work. GENERAL INTRODUCTION to Earthquake Resistant Structures (Unique and new content is intended to be presented here) Homogeneous composites have been with us for quite some time in the form of alloys (mixtures) and matrix composites in the form of Concrete. In the construction industry, we have extensively been using 'Reinforced' concrete; a composite material, and constructing Composite Structures (combination of rolled Steel sections and Reinforced Concrete Construction, etc.). Most of these are non-homogeneous and heterogeneous arrangements. There are new materials being developed which have structures within structures, i.e. the building blocks are themselves becoming fairly complicated structures. Post-tensioning and pre-stressing have become more prevalent. Materials have inherent and quite different properties. Interfaces of non-homogeneous materials are locations of (boundary conditions) stresses and strain compatibility or separation.

Update Turkey's tragedy Long time shaking Plate tectonics ... Safe buildings Her life in ruins, a Turkish woman surveys the wreckage left by Turkey's most recent earthquake. AP Photo/Murad Sezer Turkey's tragedy 2 Sep 1999. Turkey's industrial heartland was devastated by a terrific earthquake Aug. 17. One of the strongest quakes of the century hit a heavily populated area near the giant metropolis of Istanbul. A large number of multi-story concrete apartment buildings collapsed, killing more than 14,000, at last estimate. Hundreds of thousands more were left homeless, injured or bereaved by the disaster. "We are facing the greatest natural disaster in the history of the Turkish Republic," Koray Aydin, minister of public works and housing, told the Parliament Aug. 18. On Aug. 20, Prime Minister Bulent Ecevit described the quake as "one of the worst in human history and the heaviest in Turkish history Amid widespread accusations of shoddy construction and inadequate rescue efforts (Turkish newspaper headlines included "Total fiasco" and "We died twice"), more than a dozen nations contributed rescue teams to search for survivors in flattened buildings. The quake occurred along the North Anatolian Fault, a long break that allows movement between plates of the Earth's crust. In some areas, one side of the fault moved 12 feet compared to the other side. The shock was the seventh large quake to rock the fault since 1939, and was rated at magnitude 7.4.

Photo6 Page THE GRAVITY EFFECTS OF THE SUN AND THE MOON ON THE EARTH IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM THIS IS MY SPECIAL RESEARCH ABOUT THE REASONS OF EARTHQUAKES AND VOLCANIC ACTIVITIES prepared by: HARUN GUCLU (physicist) The world's earthquakes are not randomly distributed over the Earth's surface. They tend to be concentrated in narrow zones. Why is this? And why are volcanoes and mountain ranges also found in these zones, too? Plate tectonics tells us that the Earth's rigid outer shell (lithosphere) is broken into a mosaic of oceanic and continental plates which can slide over the plastic aesthenosphere, which is the uppermost layer of the mantle. The plates are in constant motion. Where they interact, along their margins, important geological processes take place, such as the formation of mountain belts, earthquakes, and volcanoes. The lithosphere covers the whole Earth. Therefore, ocean plates are also involved, more particularly in the process of sea-floor spreading. This involves the midocean ridges which are a system of narrow submarine cracks that can be traced down the center of the major oceans. The ocean floor is being continuously pulled apart along these midocean ridges. Hot volcanic material rises from the Earth's mantle to fill the gap and continuously forms new oceanic crust. The midocean ridges themselves are broken by offsets know as transform faults.

The Oklahoma Geological Survey is a research and public-service agency located on the Norman campus of the University of Oklahoma. The OGS was written into the Constitution of Oklahoma in 1907, and is the only state geological survey to hold that distinction. The enabling legislation was signed into law on May 29, 1908. The Survey's mandate remains to study Oklahoma's geology, prepare and distribute reports, and promote wise use of the State's natural resources. The Oklahoma Geological Survey Observatory in rural Tulsa County, south of Leonard is a comprehensive geophysical observatory which records, identifies, and locates 30 to 167 in Oklahoma each year, and also records about seven worldwide earthquakes per day.
