Earthquake Wave Simulations Brandon Wong
Project Basis - Objective: Model the different types of body waves that move through the surface during an earthquake - P-wave: compression wave - Wave diminishes over time and distance - Faster through denser material: Birch Equation - S-wave: perpendicular to direction of travel (up and down or side to side) - Travels outward from epicenter - Up and down
