DOI: 10.1016/j.geog.2019.03.004
Abstract: Abstract Iraq is not secure from seismic hazards. Earthquakes are likely to happen and may cause substantial damage. Actually, such hazards were happened and recorded after the last earthquake in November 2017 (Halabjah earthquake). Unfortunately,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jsames.2021.103509
Abstract: Abstract Approximately 18 million people live around the Rio de la Plata estuary. Being far away from the zones of major plate boundary-related earthquakes in South America, this region is conventionally regarded as being seismically… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2018.06.015
Abstract: The Wenchuan earthquake is a natural disaster. Its occurrence and aftermath have demonstrated the critical roles of seismology and earthquake engineering in reducing seismic hazards and damages. However, their existing limitations should also be underscored.… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/nhess-23-1911-2023
Abstract: Abstract. The mechanical description of the seismic cycle has an energetic analogy in terms of statistical physics and the second law of thermodynamics. In this context, an earthquake can be considered a phase transition, where… read more here.
