Computer modeling illustrates 10 to 30-foot waves surging across the Pacific Ocean, as a result of a potential mega-earthquake in the Alaska Aleutian subduction zone.
As a result, seismologists are keen on using physics-based simulations to predict ground motions, essentially filling in the ...
On New Year's Day 2024, a massive 7.5-magnitude earthquake struck the Noto Peninsula in north central Japan, resulting in extensive damage in the region caused by uplift, when the land rises due to ...
Plate temperature and water release can explain the occurrence of different types of earthquakes in Guerrera, Mexico. A Kobe University simulation study has also shown that the shape of the Cocos ...
A team of researchers from the University of California, San Diego and Johns Hopkins University tested a 10-story, cold-framed steel building for seismic safety on Monday morning. The 10-story ...
Tara Hutchinson, a professor in the UC San Diego Department of Structural Engineering, is the lead researcher on a series of tests on a 10-story, cold-formed steel-framed building at the UC San Diego ...
Cal State Fullerton students were quite shaken up recently — for a good reason. CSUF was among three locations chosen statewide to host the Great California ShakeOut, providing the opportunity for the ...
Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. New modeling suggests Cajon Pass sits near peak stress, raising concern about a rupture crossing two major Southern California ...
Scientists used supercomputer simulation to reveal the underlying mechanism by which the irregular fault geometry, characterized by multisegments, controlled the variation of the fault slip and ...
