This report describes earthquake-simulator experiments of a scaled model of a prototype fluoride-salt cooled high-temperature nuclear reactor.

An experimental program using a 6 degree-of-freedom earthquake simulator at the University at Buffalo was executed to generate data for supporting validation of numerical models for seismic ...

A new earthquake simulation experiment that shoved nubs of pressurized rock against one another resulted in a melting effect that stopped seismic slipping in its tracks. The lab results with ...

Earthquakes are notoriously hard to predict, and so too are the usually less-severe aftershocks that often follow a major seismic event.

GRAND RAPIDS — Earthquakes can be felt in different areas all across the world, but what causes them? Earthquakes can be very strong and destructive shaking the earth when they occur. Why do ...

Californians have no doubt seen warnings about a major earthquake in headlines, science textbooks, Hollywood and more for years. And experts say we’re overdue. But to prepare for the Big One, it ...
