Action on our Seismometer Today: Earthquake Swarm or Volcanic Harmonic Tremor? (hint: no...)

Geotripper [2014-03-02 05:36:00]   recommend this post  (58 visits)

 Frankly, if we lived next to a major fault zone or an active volcano, the seismic record above on our department seismometer would be worrisome beyond measure. Earthquake after earthquake usually means very bad things, the harmonic tremor leading [...]

How Earthquake Base Isolation Works

Climate and Geohazards [2014-03-03 15:36:53]   recommend this post  (47 visits)

Base isolation is one of the popular means of protecting a structure against earthquake ground shaking. This technique essentially isolates the overlying structure from the underlying substructure. The video below shows how triple friction pendulum [...]
