dengan pengetahuan modern untuk mampu merancang struktur
penahan gempa dan mengurangi resiko bencana gempa.
Fig. Basic mechanism of sea-floor spreading: the magma rising up from the
mantle pushes the two sides of the ridge apart, cools off in time and forms the
new oceanic slab
Teori Pelat Tektonik
Fig. Subduction mechanism. The relatively younger and denser oceanic crust
subducts beneath the continental crust. Volcanic activity is frequently observed
along the active margins of
subduction zones

Fig. Divergent (along oceanic ridges), convergent (along subduction regions) and
transform plate boundaries and their interaction with each other (Shearer 1999).
New crust is formed at divergent boundaries and existing material is consumed at
convergent boundaries. Transform boundaries neither consumes nor generates new
material

Fig. Illustration of subduction mechanism. The red circles on the descending oceanic
crust are the earthquakes. The interface earthquakes are those occurring along the
contact surface between the oceanic and continental crust. The inslab earthquakes
occur at large depths due to rupturing of subducting oceanic crust (modified from
Press and Siever 1986). Volcanic activity is part of subduction mechanism as
illustrated in the sketch
