National capital of India, Delhi is under moderate to high seismic hazard due to active regional faults such as the Mahendragarh fault, the Delhi Haridwar fault, the Sohna fault, the Delhi Meerut fault and the Rajasthan boundary fault. In addition, Delhi is also located within 200km radial distance from Main Boundary Thrust (MBT) and […]

Banerjee Soham and Kumar Abhishek (2017), Determination of S and Coda Wave Attenuation in Selected Regions of Lower and Northern Assam Within North Eastern India, Indian Geotechnical Journal, DOI 10.1007/s40098-017-0259-1
The North Eastern (NE) regions of India has been subjected to vicious damages due to numerous earthquakes (EQs). Thus, seismological study in this part of India has been a priori for a long period of time. Present study focuses to find the attenuation characteristics of selected regions within NE India. These selected regions include Guwahati […]

Present work determines the seismic wave attenuation characteristics in the Garhwal Himalayan, India. These are obtained based on the attenuations of P, S and coda wave spectra from the recorded seismograms of nearby earthquakes (EQs) with focal depth up to 10 km. Since P and S waves come directly to the site, attenuation of P […]
