Determine which type of soil amplifies back-and-forth earthquake shaking motion the most.
R
Design virtual bridges using different safety features and test them for stability during a virtual earthquake. R Make a simple shake-table to test if the height of a building will affect its stability. R Will Overstressed Bridges Survive Earthquakes? R The effect of a building's height on its stability S Which building design will best withstand an earthquake? S S S What Type of Bridge Supports More Weight in an Earthquake S Is the pyramid the strongest 3D geometric structure? S

R
Using Bacterial Biofilms to Reduce Liquefaction R Study of the Dampening Abilities of Viscous Dampers in Buildings R Determine the dynamic behavior of a structure when excited at its natural frequency, and how active damping could be used to control vibrations. R How Damping Can Passively Control the Dynamic Behavior of a Structure? R Determine the connection between tall narrow buildings and a breaking pencil point S Wood vs. Brick During Earthquakes R Earthquakes! Which Soil Mixtures Reduce Damage? R Determine which soil additive out of polymers, bark or styrofoam, when mixed with soil, would be the most stable when water is added and after a simulated earthquake.
