• Continental Drift Theory by Alfred Wegener
  Continents float over the mantle & are not static. the earth's crust os elastic to some extent. Alfred Wegener proposed the continental drift theory in 1960s. Learn more about the continental drift theory
  
  
• Earthquake Analysis and Measurement
  Earthquakes are recorded and analyzed with the help of Richter scale, Moment magnitude scale and Modified Mercalli Scale. Surface waves are responsible for most of the damage to structures. Earthquake analysis is important
  
  
• Earthquakes - Elastic Rebound Theory by H. B. Ried
  Earthquakes are very destructive. The theory of earthquakes was proposed by H. B. Ried. It is known as the Elastic Rebound Theory. Scientific reasons of earthquake occurrence are proposed in this theory.
  
  
• Effects of Earthquakes
  Earthquakes give rise to different after-effects like tsunamis, ground tilting, landslides, differential settlement of buildings, liquefaction of ground. This causes a lot of damage.
  
  
• Internal Structure of Earth
  What does the interior of earth look like? How is the structure of earth? What causes Earthquakes? What causes the earth's magnetic field? What is the core, mantle, asthenosphere & lithosphere?
  
  
• Natural Disasters - Earthquakes, Floods, Hurricanes, Volcanic Eruptions
  Natural Disasters such as Floods, Tornadoes, Volcanic Eruptions, Tsunamis, Earthquakes, wreck havoc in our day-to-day life. With the help of Technology, we may be able to counteract these natural events
  
  
• Predicting an Earthquake
  Scientists have always been fascinated by earthquake forces. There is an urgent need to be able to predict the occurrence of earthquakes, so that many lives can be saved. Using the latest technology, seismologists have tried to predict earthquakes
  
  
• Summary of Earthquake Report
  Summary of seminar report on Geophysics of Earthquakes. Nature, distribution, causes and effects of Earthquakes. Earthquake waves, devastating effect of earthquake and predicting earthquakes
  
  
• Tracing the Beginning of Earth - Big Bang Theory
  How did the universe come into existence? There are several theories, intelligent design theory, big bang theory and other theories. formation of solar system and formation of earth is discussed
  
  
• What is Earthquake Engineering?
  Structures should be designed to withstand a moderate earthquake. Basic earthquake-resistant design philosophy states that structures should not collapse completely during a major earthquake. Structural design plays an important role.
  
  
• What is Geophysics?
  Geophysics means application of physical principles to the study of the earth. In this report, scientific reasons behind creation, propagation and distribution of earthquakes is discussed.
