As part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, the Philippines is prone to various natural calamities like typhoons, flooding, and earthquakes. The damage and aftermath may not be something humankind can control but definitely something we can reduce for the next one to come especially for businesses that cannot afford to be greatly affected. After all, it doesn’t only happen once or twice. But how? This is where an accelerograph comes into the picture.
An accelerograph is a device used for earthquake monitoring sometimes known as a seismograph, a strong-motion device, or simply an earthquake accelerometer. They are often built as self-contained boxes that are used to incorporate a paper or film recorder (an analog instrument), but now they frequently record directly on digital media and then communicate the data through the Internet.
Accelerographs are far more useful than you think. So let’s go over why it’s essential to a business.
Accelerographs are useful when the ground motion from an earthquake is so powerful that it causes the more sensitive seismometers to go off-scale. They measure the ground’s acceleration in relation to time. This type of recording is also known as an accelerogram, strong-motion record, or acceleration time-history.
An accelerograph is a piece of structural health equipment. A reaction spectrum is frequently generated to demonstrate how the earthquake will affect structures with varied natural frequencies or periods. These measurements can be used to determine a region’s seismic threat.
Accelerograms are important for studying earthquakes from a scientific standpoint, in addition to their technical uses. Accelerograms, for example, may be used to recreate the exact history of rupture along a fault during an earthquake, something seismograms from normal equipment cannot do since they are too far away to resolve the details.
