SCEC researchers produce a wide variety of scientific movies and animations. SCEC Visualization Groups include SDSC, PSC, ISI, USC, and SCEC Interns. Earthquake Animations created by SCEC researchers include:

2 EQ_LaHabra_Site_Fullerton Simulations of the effects of ground motions on objects in Fullerton, about 15km from epicenter of La Habra Earthquake. The animation was created by observed ground motions from the Fullerton strong motion station were input to a physics-engine

Scenario Earthquake Animations

M8 Wave Height Field movies provide another view of the M8 simulation results. These animations show M8 simulation ground motion intensity (velocity magnitude) as exaggerated local elevation.

Narrated Animations

  • M8 Earthquake Rupture shown using GlyphSea Viz Technique (93.8MB) .mov format
  • Demonstration of experimental vector visualization technique (Glyphsea) applied to M8 rupture (Amit Chourasia, Kim Olsen, Yifeng Cui et al 2010). Vector Field with narration show new techniques for visualizing 4D vector fields. Work was done by Amit Chourasia and J.B. Minster with Emmett McQuinn while Emmett worked as a SCEC Graduate Student Intern. Amit and Emmett presented their vector visualization work at a computer visualization conference SIGGRAPH2010.

Wall2Wall Ensemble Simulation Animation

ShakeOut 2.3 Simulation (Narration included)

TeraShake 2.1 Simulation (Narration included)

TeraShake 1.3 (Narration included)

Site-oriented Animations

Building Oriented Simulations

These movies visualize building response to SCEC simulation ground motions. In this example, a 18 story steel frame building is shaken by M8 ground motions in the Northridge, California area.
