However, Public were not aware of the need for help in the earthquake that affected Pakistan and thus donations were very low. Actions surrounding

winter. The south is warmer with a subtropical climate. Japan is a high risk area with more than 1,500 earthquakes per year causing volcanic eruptions and tsunamis. Due to lack of space, economic activities are concentrated on the coastal plains. To compensate for this lack of space, the Japanese built land filled, artificial islands, giant bridges, giant undersea tunnels, buildings earthquake. 2. Population, demographics Despite being a small country, Japan has a population of 127 million

estimates the cost at $300 billion, which would make it the most expensive natural disaster on record. Yet Japan is unable to focus on recovery.

Thankfully, no injuries or damage were reported. More important, the nation and places beyond remain under threat from the stricken reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

de corte, corroborando o que foi evidenciado in situ na sequência do sismo. ABSTRACT The aim of this work is the assessment of the susceptibility to the liquefaction phenomena of a dune sand from Ain Beniam in Algeria, where the Boumerdès earthquake occurred on the 21th of May 2003. This evaluation was conducted at the Geotechnical Laboratory of FEUP by means of undrained monotonic static and cyclic triaxial tests, using bender/extender elements, for measuring shear and compression seismic
