ABSTRACT: This article introduces
application of the expanding commensurability in earthquake prediction. The
results show that most of the world’s major earthquake occurred at their
commensurable points of time axis. An EQ 7.0 occurred in Lushan of China on
2013-04-20 and an EQ 8.2 occurred in Iquique of northern Chile on 2014-04-01
all occurred at their commensurable points of time axis. This once again proves
that the commensurability provides an important scientific basis for the prediction of major
earthquakes, which will occur in the area in future.
