- Abstract
- The monograph presents the methodology for machine calculations of the main seismicity indices. It is suitable for seismic zoning and for a study of the regularity of earthquakes. The current methods of determining and plotting seismic parameters are analyzed and the rationale of switching over to machine calculation justified. A number of computer programs are included for evaluating graphs of recurring earthquakes, mapping seismic activity and maximum possible earthquakes. Also included are the examples of the use of these programs to study seismicity in Uzbekistan.
