On the Method of Reducing the Magnitude of an Impending Catastrophic Earthquake

This chapter develops the ideas devoted the project of creation new sensor and new vibrator which are necessary for the project to reduce the magnitude of an impending catastrophic earthquake. A physical and mathematical model of the prototype of a mercury earthquake precursor sensor is proposed, and the signal received by the old sensor is calculated. Analysis of an existing sensor prototype provides an understanding of physical processes and shows the fundamental advantage of the new sensor. This sensor helps to determine the epicenter of a future short-focus earthquake tens of hours before the earthquake which is necessary for the project to reduce the magnitude of an impending catastrophic earthquake. An approach is formulated to explain the physical mechanism for reducing the magnitude of an impending catastrophic earthquake. The requirement for new vibrators for the purpose of Reducing the Magnitude of an Impending Catastrophic Earthquake is formulated. The chapter describes a patent of vibrator basing on new physical principle.
