Nine people were killed by the May 1940 Imperial Valley earthquake. At Imperial, 80 percent of the buildings were damaged to some degree. In the business district of Brawley, all structures were damaged, and about 50 percent had to be condemned. The shock caused 40 miles of surface faulting on the Imperial Fault, part of the San Andreas system in southern California. Total damage has been estimated at about $6 million. The magnitude was 7.1.

Problems with arbitrary base excitation are solved using a convolution integral.
The convolution integral is represented by a digital recursive filtering relationship for numerical efficiency.

1906 San Francisco Quake
• The San Francisco earthquake occurred at 5:12 A.M. on April 18, 1906
• The source was a rupture of the San Andreas Fault
• The duration of severe shaking was about 40 seconds
• Reference sources give magnitude estimates ranging from 7.7 to 8.25
• Many people died in the quake and in the fires which followed
• The fires resulted from ruptured gas lines
• Death toll estimates range from 700 to 3000

1964 Prince William Sound, Alaskan Quake
• The Alaskan earthquake occurred on Good Friday, March 27, 1964, at 5:36 PM• It was the largest earthquake ever recorded in North America• Duration estimates range from 3 to 5 minutes• Bruce Bolt lists it as 8.6 Ms, where Ms is the surface-wave magnitude• The USGS gives it a 9.2 Mw, where Mw is the moment magnitude• The death toll was 131, mostly due to tsunami

1994 Northridge Quake
• Occurred at 4:30 a.m. local time on January 17, 1994
• Had a 6.9 moment magnitude
• Duration was about 20 second
• Had the highest Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) for USA at 1.7 G
• Death toll was 57
• The earthquake occurred along a previously unknown "blind" thrust fault, close to the San Andreas fault
• Blind fault does break Earth’s surface and is thus not visible
• Los Angeles basin was once one of the most prolific oil fields in the world
• Oil companies had known about this blind fault but had not publically disclosed information

2011 Virginia Earthquake
• Occurred on August 23, 2011
• Epicenter was near Mineral, Virginia (Piedmont region)
• 5.8-magnitude quake
• A one-inch wide, four-foot long crack formed in the Washington Monument, near the top of the 555-foot obelisk
• Distance from quake epicenter to Washington Monument is about 90 miles

Highest Peak Ground Acceleration
• The Iwate-Miyagi Nairiku earthquake struck northeast Honshu, Japan, on 14 June 2008
• This earthquake had a moment magnitude Mw 6.9 according to the USGS
• The peak ground acceleration (PGA) had a maximum vector sum (3 component) value of 4278 cm/sec^2 (4.36 G)
• This is the highest ever recorded PGA, although other quakes have had higher moment magnitudes
• The Richter and moment magnitudes are a measure of the total energy released by a quake
• The PGA is measured at a point
• PGA depends on soil conditions, distance from the hypocenter, and other factors
