spun an idea with French physicists who decided to make the ground its own elastic buckling device and drill holes that proved earthquake-resistant and absorbed impact energy.
Whether they're floods, earthquakes or landslides, natural disasters have a nasty habit of cutting survivors off from aid by destroying bridges.
#New Invention Bears the Brunt of Earthquakes By Using Good Vibrations Older buildings may get a new lease on life thanks to a new invention that lets them shake off the effects of an earthquake.
Much of the worst quake damage and injuries in recent years result from older buildings collapsinghat because modern buildings in earthquake zones are designed with devices called dampers or isolation units,
or slide on skids during earthquakes. It impossible to retrofit old buildings with much of that technology,

#At $50, Earthquake Early Warning device Could Ease Lives of Billions Startup Grillo wants everyone, especillay developing nations,
to have earthquake early warning-systems systems for increased public safetyan earthquake measuring device is priced at about $20,
The dream is to allow even developing nations affordable early warning devices that can warn against the destructive power of earthquakes.
there is no effective way to predict an earthquake hours earlier. Japan, the only country in the world with a nationwide advanced early warning system
can only send alerts mere seconds before an earthquake can happen. But this crucial warning has proven itself a lifesaver.
when the most powerful earthquake Japan has seen ever rocked the nation, early warning systems halted trains and is believed to have minimized significantly damage to both infrastructure and the number of casualties.
Expert seismologists will place the sensors for better chances of coming across the early stages of an earthquake.
