This course is designed to provide an overview of earthquake science and its relation to hazard and engineering applications. Topics covered include: seismicity, plate tectonics and faulting processes, source characteristics, seismometry, strong earthquake motions, effects of earthquakes on soils and man-made structures, probabilistic seismic hazard analysis, hazard calculations and data products. (CEE 479 and GE 479 are cross-listed; credit may be earned in one of the two.)
