Earthquake is one of the most devastating natural disasters on earth. Earthquake effects can cover hundreds of thousands of square kilometers; cause damage to structures or infrastructures facilities, result in loss of life and injury to hundreds of thousands of people, and disrupt the social and economic functioning of the affected area. Usually the effects will rise significantly as results of increasing in population and structures or infrastructure facilities.

Although it is impossible to prevent earthquake from occurring, it is possible to mitigate the effects and to reduce loss of life, injuries and damage.

the earthquake engineering research is needed in order to predict the possibility of earthquake in the future that can cause damages to the buildings and structures as well as to find the solution for mitigating the effects. The researches done by the author involve investigation and solution of the problems created by damaging earthquakes. The research work covers the seismic hazard assessment, vulnerability and risk studies of structures and infrastructures, practical application of new innovative products for earthquake disaster solutions, such as new types of base isolators, dampers, sensors and intelligent system in monitoring and managing earthquake-resistant structures and facilities.
