The seismo-electromagnetic phenomena (SEMG) are integrated in a relatively recent research field that studies diverse phenomena such as: unusual seismo-electrical signals [1], abnormal ultra-low-frequency (ULF) seismo-electromagnetic emissions [2], very-low-frequency (VLF) and low-frequency (LF) radiobroadcast anomalies associated with ionosphere perturbations [3], variation of total electron content of the ion...
Many studies are being done to understand acoustic to electromagnetic conversion in rocks, [1], mainly because of the so-called seismo-electromagnetic phenomena (SEMG). Nevertheless, to our knowledge, most of them disregard a preliminary analysis of the electrical transport occurring in these rocks. These are, in fact, crucial to understand any electromagnetic process occurring in the materials since they clari...
During 2008 a radio receiver was developed by the Italian factory Elettronika. The receiver is an equipment working in VLF (15-60 kHz) and LF (150-300 kHz) bands. It can monitor 10 frequencies distributed in these bands and, for each of them, saves the electric field intensity. During 2009 six receivers were installed for the realization of the “European VLF/LF network”. Actually, two of them are into operation ...
The use of sensors to capture disparate types of information from the environment has been increasing and they cover a wide range of applications, such as climate monitoring (e.g., seismic activity and climate), water quality monitoring, area surveillance, intelligent buildings, energy management, automotive industry and scientific purposes. Additionally, the Information Age has provided rapid and ubiquitous ac...
In recent years different phenomena associated with seismic events have been referred in the literature. These include: unusual ultra-low-frequency electromagnetic emissions [1]; anomalies in very-low and low-frequencies radio transmissions [2]; variation of the ionosphere total electron content [3]; and anomalous levels of different geochemical elements (in particular radon) in the earthquake preparation zone ...
Electromagnetic and acoustic coupling (EAC) during mechanical action, was theoretically predicted to occur in porous media [1] and was recently validated experimentally [2]. In fact, the exchange of acoustic waves to electromagnetic emissions is commonly referred in the literature as seismo-electromagnetic phenomena and is engaging a large number of geophysical groups on its study [3]. The reason for this inte...

Today, it is impractical work modelling the dynamics of failure, given the high complexity of the systems involved. As soon, it is important to identify models, as simples as possible, with qualitatively similar to the failures. The first model introducing is it the mechanical block-spring model, given by Burrigde-Knopoff [1]. In this work the subject was treated by experimental means. For that purpose it was d...
In the last years disturbances in VLF/LF radio signals related to seismic activity have been presented. The radio data were collected by receivers located on the ground or on satellites. The ground-based research implies systematic data collection by a network of receivers. Since 2000 the “Pacific VLF network”, conducted by Japanese researchers, has been in operation. During 2008 a radio receiver was developed ...
