Shake tables provide a critical tool for simulating earthquake events and testing the response of structures to seismic forces. Simulated earthquake conditions can help civil engineers identify potential weaknesses in the design and suggest ways to improve a structure’s resilience. In a controlled laboratory setting, shake tables can also be...

In the domain of accelerometer sensitivity measurement, the current standard relies heavily on the utilization of expensive industrial shakers. These shaker devices generate vibrations in a sinusoidal pattern, which, while effective, pose significant limitations. The oscillating motion they produce, moving between high and low points, introduces challenges...
