Bock, UC San Diego researchers to monitor seismic impacts on campus structures

IGPP's Yehuda Bock, distinguished researcher and director of the Scripps Orbit and Permanent Array Center (SOPAC), is part of a campus wide team monitoring seismic impact on campus structures. The team has been working recently at the Geisel Library, using "lasers and drones to create a digital record of the structure that will serve as a baseline health assessment." Bock, who also applied sensors to measure ground motion to the Giesel Library six months ago, currently aims to "integrate structural monitoring into his early-warning prototype system for earthquakes and tsunamis."
