The 1940 Vrancea Earthquake. Issues, Insights and Lessons Learnt Proceedings of the Symposium Commemorating 75 Years from November 10, 1940 Vrancea Earthquake /

These proceedings include most of the available information on this major seismic event and its consequences. With an estimated moment magnitude of 7.7 and a heavy toll in terms of human and economic losses, it ranks as the largest intermediate-depth earthquake in Europe in the twentieth century. Ne...
