The article considers approaches to the analysis and management of seismic risk. In chronological order a summary of the
seismographs, methods of assessing the risk of seismic events, the scale of earthquakes and seismic zoning area is presented.
An expression for the quantitative assessment of seismic risk is presented. It is shown that in the management of seismic risk in
Russia the researches in the field of methods for real-time prediction of strong earthquakes and earthquake-proof construction
are especially relevant in the near future. The analysis of the factors that best determine the seismic risk is carried out.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
