Abstract


This scientific paper reveals the main characteristics of Oltenia Region in order to evaluate the seismicity of this important zone from Romania South West Region. There are presented the geomorphological map and also the vulnerability map of this region and the damages after the strongest earthquake from Vrancea source (Romania) on the 4th of March 1977 (MW=7.4). These damages are presented in dynamic conditions of that massive seismic event. The results interpretation and conclusions are done in the context of the real response of the buildings from the territory of Oltenia Region
