Scientist said- India is a sensitive area in terms of earthquakes but we are fortunate that we have many small earthquakes every day, so the accumulated energy gets drained out. According to experts, the resonant frequency of a building can play an important role in reducing the damage caused to it during an earthquake. Buildings have natural frequencies of vibration called resonant frequencies which are determined by their mass, stiffness and shape. Depending on an earthquake, ground activity can amplify these natural frequencies, causing the building to vibrate at its resonant frequency. According to the Ministry of Earth Sciences, 59 percent of India’s land area is vulnerable to earthquakes.
