| Scope |
Active faults are the sources of the severest and rarest earthquake
hazards. Because the devastating disasters are mostly due to higher
level of human activities, broad spectra of engineering, physical,
social and human scienses are required for effective and feasible
coutermeasures. This session gives more weight to the latter aspect
and invites broader communities for open discussions. |
