How exactly does the ground shake during a 6.9 earthquake that occurs at a depth of 15 km? Watch this 3D simulation to find out! Shallow depth earthquakes are always felt stronger in the epicentral area than deep earthquakes. Similar sized earthquakes that occurred in real life: 1989 Loma Prieta, 1940 Imperial Valley - California.

I want to remind all of you that my channel's goal is to educate and to bring more insights about what earthquakes truly are - and also to bring more awareness about earthquake preparedness and safety. "Preparation through education
is less costly than learning through tragedy." Max Mayfield

This video simulation was created in Blender 3D with the Bullet Constraints Builder extension (BCB by Kai Kostack - a structural simulation code) which extends Blender´s basic physics functionality with a sophisticated toolset to simulate load dynamics in building structures.
