Thesis Abstract

<p>Abstract
**<br>This study investigates the relationship between tectonic plate movements and earthquake occurrences. Earthquakes are primarily driven by the movement and interaction of tectonic plates along plate boundaries. Through geological analysis, seismic data interpretation, and numerical modeling, the research aims to elucidate the mechanisms underlying earthquake generation and propagation. By examining case studies of major seismic events and plate boundary processes, the study seeks to enhance understanding of earthquake dynamics and improve seismic hazard assessment and mitigation strategies.<br><br><br></p>
