Abstract: There were 157 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. of these, only 65 patients (41.4 %) failed to show any factor at the disease onset, which could be estimated as provoking. Psychoemotional factor was most common (in 47.7 % of cases). Later the indicated factor played a more important part: only 5.1 % of the patients denied or doubted it. In most cases, the distress was caused by family relations. There was an appreciable difference in the intensity of the problems in family and single patients. Affective disorders (neurotic and hypopsychotic depressions) were mostly recorded among mental disorders. The life quality determined in accordance with the self-estimation of the <> and happiness>> noticeably depended both on biological factors (pain intensity, the degree of damage to the bones and joints, and the disease stage) and on social factors-the educational level and social position. The degree of personality merits defined according to the self-estimation of the <> and <> appeared higher in persons with higher education and in patients suffering from erosive arthritis. The data obtained provide evidence for the necessity of psychosomatic orientation of practicing physicians.

Abstract: The tectonic significance of the Erzincan earthquake of 13 March, 1992 in Eastern Turkey is discussed. The intersection of the North Anatolian and The East Anatolian strike-slip fault zones has resulted in formation of the Erzincan pull-apart basin and new seismically active fault branches on its northeastern side. Local concentrations of surface ruptures strike along the most active branches of the North Anatolian fault zone (N300-degrees-W) for 62 km. They are usually open fractures with northeastern sides uplifted up to 20 cm and rarely with dextral offset up to 10 cm. These secondary ruptures manifest indirectly oblique seismic fault displacement corresponding to the Late Quaternary motion on the fault zone, although at the surface the dextral component has been suppressed relative to the vertical one.

Abstract: The 13 March 1992 Erzincan earthquake, M = 6.8, occurred in the eastern half of the Erzincan basin. The largest aftershock took place near Pulumur on 15 March 1992. No clear surface breaks were observed, although teleseismic studies suggested that it was a strike-slip earthquake striking parallel to the North Anatolian fault, with a focus of approximately 10±2 km depth, 30 km rupture length, 95 cm of slip, and a 1.16×10²⁶ dyn.cm seismic moment. The aftershock distribution concentrated at an area of the intersection between the North Anatolian fault and the Ovaclk fault. These results indicate that the previously suggested seismic gap along the North Anatolian fault, east of Erzincan, still remains unruptured.

Abstract: A method to estimate the dynamic magnification of nonlinear seismographs is presented. The method was tested by applying it to the record of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake seismogram obtained on the Vicentini seismograph in Zagreb, in order to reconstruct the ground motion amplitudes. The magnitudes inferred from the corrected Vicentini recording of P-and surface waves are internally consistent (m_b = 7.74, M_s = 8.48) and agree with the values published in various catalogues, within the error limits of magnitude determination for individual events. The corrected P-waveform is compatible with a rupture slip profile exhibiting several distinct maxima along the 300 km-long section of the San Andreas fault, in accordance with recent studies and contemporary geodetic measurements.

Abstract: The Dinar earthquake (M (s) = 6.1, USGS-PDE) of 1 October 1995 occurred on the NWSE-trending Dinar Fault. The earthquake is associated with a 10-km-long surface rupture with predominantly normal faulting. The mainshock was preceded by a series of foreshocks that started 6 days before the mainshock and included two M_d = 4.5 events. The mainshock source mechanism derived from the inversion of broad-band P waves revealed that two sub-events occurred on a NW-SE trending normal fault with a small strike-slip component. According to the source model estimated in this study, the first rupture started at a depth of about 8 km and reached to a depth of about 12 km propagating north-west. The total seismic moment found from the inversion of P waveforms is 2.0×10¹⁸ Nm. The seismic moment of the second subevent was about four times larger than the first one. Field observations, GPS measurements and slip vector obtained from the inversion of broad-band P waveforms suggest that the NW-SE trending Dinar Fault is due to the internal deformation of SW Anatolia moving southwestwards.
