Not illustrated.1891 Excerpt: ... CHAPTER II. SE1SM0METRY. Nature of earthquake vibrations--Many instruments called seismometers only seismoscopes--Eastern seismoscopes, columns, projection seismometers--Vessels filled with liquid--Palmieri's mercury tubes--The ship seismoscope--The cacciatore--Pendulum instruments o£ Kreil, Wagner, Ewing, and Gray--Bracket seismographs--West's parallel motion instrument--Gray's conical pendulums, rolling spheres, and cylinders--Verbeck's ball and plate seismograph--The principle of Perry and Ayrton--Vertical motion instruments--Record receivers--Time-recording apparatus--The Gray and Milne seismograph. Before we discuss the nature of earthquake motion, the determination of which has been the aim of modem seismologieal investigation, the reader will naturally look for an account of the various instruments which have been employed for recording such disturbances. A description of the earthquake machines which have been used even in Japan would form a bulky volume. All that we can do, therefore, is to describe briefly the more prominent features of a few of the more important of these instruments. In order that the relative merits of these may be better understood, we may state generally that modern research has shown a typical earthquake to consist of a series of small tremors succeeded by a shock, or series of shocks, separated by more or less irregular vibrations of the ground. The vibrations are often both irregular in period and in amplitude, and tbey have a duration of from a few seconds to several minutes. We will illustrate the records of actual earthquakes in a future chapter, but in the meantime the idea that an earthquake consists of a single shock must be dismissed from the imagination.
