Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Analyze a scenario where a fault line experiences low-frequency tremors over years without a major earthquake. Using the Elastic Rebound Theory, how would you predict when an earthquake may occur?

💡 Hint: Think about how accumulated stress manifests over time.

Question 2

Devise an engineering proposal for a building in a seismic zone, applying the Elastic Rebound Theory principles. What specific features would your design include?

💡 Hint: Consider how structures can be engineered to withstand seismic forces.
