This paper presents a review of the work done in earthquake prediction using abnormal animal behavior. The earthquake prediction can be done using the abnormal behavior of animals preceding earthquake occurrence in seismically active region because of their relatively more capability than humans of perceiving certain kind of geophysical stimuli which may precede earthquake. The international work specially carried out in China, Japan, USA has been summarized. Further, the data requirement for…

Analysis on Predicting Earthquakes through an Abnormal Behavior of Animals
This paper presents an abnormal animal behaviour in an earthquake prediction. The earthquake prediction can be done using the abnormal behaviour of animals preceding earthquake occurrence in…
Can animals predict earthquakes?
In public perception abnormal animal behavior is widely assumed to be a potential earthquake precursor, in strong contrast to the viewpoint in natural sciences. Proponents of earthquake prediction…
To what extent can animals aid earthquake prediction
Earthquakes are very hard to predict. Even when Scientists believe an earthquake is likely, it is still hard to comprehend what the probability implies and what precautions should be taken. In this…
Study on Techniques of Earthquake Prediction
TLDR
This paper is focused on statistics and soft computing techniques to analyze the earthquake data and apply the fuzzy logic rules to predict the impact of earthquake.
Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology
TLDR
This paper aims to describe the circular model of energy flow during earthquake, similar to a damping oscillator, compared to a power inverse law.
Predicting Damage to Buildings Caused by Earthquakes Using Machine Learning Techniques
TLDR
The analysis reveals that Random forest method has outperformed the neural network approach for building damage prediction and the F1 score using the random forest classification has been obtained as 74.32%.
Revealing of Earth Quake Magnitude Using Seismic Signals and Wavelet Transforms
Study on Techniques of Earthquake Prediction
TLDR

Abnormal Animal Behavior Prior to the Vrancea (Romania) Major Subcrustal Earthquakes
The goal of this paper is to present some observations about the abnormal animal behavior prior to and during some Romanian subcrustal earthquakes. The major Vrancea earthquakes of 4 March 1977 (MW =…
On the Precursory Abnormal Animal Behavior and Electromagnetic Effects for the Kobe Earthquake (M~6) on April 12, 2013
After the 2011 Tohoku earthquake (EQ), there have been numerous aftershocks in the eastern and Pacific Ocean of Japan, but EQs are still rare in the western part of Japan. In this situation a…

Response of High-Rise and Base-Isolated Buildings to a Hypothetical Mw 7.0 Blind Thrust Earthquake
TLDR
This work simulated the near-source ground motions of a Mw 7.0 thrust earthquake and mathematically modeled the response of a 20-story steel-frame building and a 3-story base-isolated building to answer the question of how these two types of buildings perform if a large earthquake occurs beneath a metropolitan area.
