An in-depth exploration of seismic waves, the process of liquefaction as a site-related hazard, and the physics behind earthquakes. Topics include the four types of seismic waves (p, s, love, and rayleigh), the phases in a seismogram, and the role of stress and strain in earthquakes. Additionally, the document covers earthquake monitoring, prediction, and hazard mitigation.
