Directions in Strong Motion Instrumentation Proceedings of the NATO SFP Workshop on Future Directions in Instrumentation for Strong Motion and Engineering Seismology, Kusadasi, Izmir, May 17-21, 2004 / edited by Polat Gülkan, John G. Anderson.

Strong ground motion measuring and recording instruments play a major role in mitigation of seismic risk. The strong ground motion near the source of an earthquake describes the effects that endanger our built environment, and is also the most detailed clue concerning the source mechanism of the ear...
