@richmintz This is exactly why i took the recorded seismic data we had at 38 miles from epicenter and 62 miles in the city and did an analysis. https://t.co/Jkyoj2gk8I
Earthquakes typically generate low-frequency vibrations, which can travel long distances with less attenuation compared to higher-frequency vibrations generated by local sources such as construction or traffic.
Earthquake vibrations tend to decrease in intensity as they travel further from the epicenter. The data shows that even at 62 miles away, the vibrations (with PPVs like 0.0469 in/s for longitudinal vibrations) are detectable but remain below damage thresholds.
The seismic data captured 62 miles from the epicenter in New York City, detailed through the recordings from the seismographs, helps us understand the behavior of earthquake-induced vibrations and their perceptibility in urban settings.
The analysis involved comparing the recorded seismic data to the USBM RI8507 standards. This comparison is crucial for assessing the impact of the seismic activity on urban structures and for evaluating the effectiveness of current vibration monitoring systems.
@jewkidsotb It wasn’t as bad as it seems, we were able to record data and analyze it. The recorded vibrations are less than typical construction.
