Abstract

Earthquake, also known as ground motion and ground vibration, is a natural phenomenon caused by the rapid release of energy from the earth's crust, during which seismic waves are generated. The current level of science and technology cannot predict the arrival of earthquakes, and earthquakes will be unpredictable for a long time in the future. The so-called examples of successful earthquake prediction are basically coincidences. For earthquakes, what we should do is to improve the seismic level of buildings and do a good job of defence, rather than predicting earthquakes. Turkey experienced a strong earthquake in 2023, causing a large number of buildings to collapse and casualties. One of the main reasons why the earthquake was so severe was that Turkey was located in an earthquake zone between the Eurasian continents, and the collision of plates caused the earthquake. Second, Turkey's rudimentary building structures and misuse of raw materials increased the damage caused by the disaster. For the damage of this disaster, it is necessary to establish a relatively complete earthquake relief system, including the improvement of the strength of earthquake-resistant buildings and the rescue and rescue work after the disaster.
