App#1: Seismic
nInteraction between ground motions and structure/foundation response not well understood.
–Current
seismic networks not spatially dense enough
to monitor structure deformation in response
to ground motion, to sample wavefield without spatial aliasing.
nScience
–Understand
response of buildings and underlying soil
to ground shaking
–Develop
models to predict structure response for earthquake scenarios.
nTechnology/Applications
–Identification
of seismic events that cause significant
structure shaking.
–Local,
at-node processing of waveforms.
–Dense
structure monitoring systems.
nENS will provide field data at sufficient densities to develop predictive models of structure, foundation, soil response.
