Computer Simulation of a Magnitude 7.7 Earthquake in the New Madrid Seismic Zone This animation depicts simulated ground motion of the Earth’s surface that could occur in the central U.S. region for a ...

A multi-disciplinary team has simulated the largest, longest multiphysics earthquake simulation to date. Just before 8:00 a.m. local time on December 26, 2004, people in southeast Asia were starting ...

Accurately modeling the effects of an earthquake is possible, but it requires intricate physics-based models that can only be run on advanced supercomputers. The data from such models are invaluable ...

Simulations still can't predict exactly when an earthquake will happen, but with the incredible processing power of modern exascale supercomputers, they can now predict how they will happen and how ...

Researchers at LMU and TUM in Munich are up for best paper at SC17 after simulating one of the largest, most violent earthquakes in history. Just before 8:00 a.m. local time on December 26, 2004, ...
