This book addresses applications of earthquake engineering for both
offshore and land-based structures. It is self-contained as a reference
work and covers a wide range of topics, including topics related to
engineering seismology, geotechnical earthquake engineering, structural
engineering, as well as special contents dedicated to design philosophy,
determination of ground motions, shock waves, tsunamis, earthquake
damage, seismic response of offshore and arctic structures, spatial
varied ground motions, simplified and advanced seismic analysis methods,
sudden subsidence of offshore platforms, tank liquid impacts during
earthquakes, seismic resistance of non-structural elements, and various
types of mitigation measures, etc. The target readership includes
professionals in offshore and civil engineering, officials and
regulators, as well as researchers and students in this field.
