Seismology

by Fabio Romanelli (University of Trieste)

The course introduces the key concepts to the comprehension of the modern themes on the generation propagation and analysys of the seismic waves. Topics: Seismic sources (faulting and rupture process; faults and their representation; faults and body forces; the elastodynamic Green function; focal mechanisms). Earthquakes and their measurement (earthquakes and seismometry; earthquakes size and seismometry; intensity and magnitude measurements; viscoelasticity and attenuation). Inversion of seismological data (Inverse Problems; seismic tomography; seismic sources inversion). -- NOTE: This course was recorded automatically in slots of one hour and processed without human intervention. Lectures are split between videos; their starting time may not coincide with the beginning of videos and intervals were not removed.
