Visualization of experimental earthquake data
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a system that visualizes displacement, acceleration, and strain that were measured during an earthquake simulation experiment in a geotechnical centrifuge. Our visualization tool starts by reading the data describing experiment set-up and displaying this data along with icons for the sensors used during data acquisition. Different sensor types (measuring acceleration, displacement and strain) are indicated by different icons. One general experiment set-up is used in a sequence of simulated earthquake events. Once a user has selected a particular event, measured data can be displayed as a two-dimensional (2D) graph/plot by clicking the corresponding sensors. Multiple sensors can be animated to obtain a three-dimensional (3D) visualization of measured data.

Rapid Post-Event Catastrophe Modelling and Visualization1
Catastrophe models capable of rapid data ingestion, loss estimation and visualization are required for postevent analysis of catastrophic events such as earthquakes. This paper describes the design and development of the Automated Post-Event Earthquake Loss Estimation and Visualization (APE-ELEV) system for real-time estimation and visualization of losses incurred due to earthquakes. A model fo...

– Abstract Wavelets have a wide range of useful functions that permit them to effectively treat problems such as data compression, scale-localization analysis, feature extraction, visualization, statistics, numerical simulation, and communication. We discuss their features and their use in an integrated manner to handle largescale problems in earthquake physics and other nonlinear problems in t...
متن کاملVisualization of Earthquake Simulation Data
We present various techniques to visualize timevarying, 3D earthquake modeling datasets. We use RIVA (Remote Interactive Visualization and Analysis) to visualize the surface deformation as a synthetic interferogram overlaid on top of a high resolution LandSAT image and digital terrain. We use ParVox (PARallel VOXel Renderer) to visualize the simulated normal stress and shear stress along the No...

Earthquakes are among the most complex terrestrial phenomena, and modeling of earthquake dynamics is one of the most challenging computational problems in science. Computational capabilities have advanced to a state where we can perform wavefield simulations for realistic three-dimensional earth models, and gain more insights into the earthquakes that threaten California and many areas of the w...
متن کاملInteractive Information Visualization of Trend Information
This paper proposes the visualization cube as a reference model for spatiotemporal trend information. The interactive visualization system for earthquake trend information was proposed at MuST in NTCIR-6 workshop, which defines earthquake trend information as spatiotemporal information and designs the interaction between different views so that temporal and spatial trend information can be effe...
