1906 Ground Motion Simulations

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and UC Berkeley scientists, working with the U.S. Geological Survey, have contributed to new computer models that re-create the ground motions from the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. The results of these simulations will be used by earthquake engineers to assess the likely impacts of future earthquakes along the San Andreas Fault.
