The wake flow is found to be relatively insensitive to the floor movement, in agreement with previous experimental observations.
The dynamic response of building structures has been studied extensively for relatively low-frequency seismic actions, and it is established that the seismic response generally is governed by the global-mode vibration, i.e., the vibration in terms of the floor movement.
This would be expected to greatly improve the effectiveness of tsunami alert systems, since tsunamis are caused by sea-floor movements during earthquakes.
For example, obtaining the static displacement from strong-motion data before the arrival of a tsunami would improve the reliability of tsunami alert systems, since tsunamis are caused by sea-floor movements during earthquakes.
Scaggs Yeah, like "[The] Walker," for instance, has a really cool four-on-the-floor movement beat to it.
Before the original Penn Station was demolished and replaced in the 1960s, all engineers took their orders from the men of the fourth-floor "movement bureau" and its squadron of telegraph machines.
"Power Pilates" is billed as a floor-movement program designed to produce leaner, stronger and more efficient muscles by concentrating on body alignment, muscle balance, flexibility and body control; it uses breathing patterns to help oxygenate muscles while exercising.
The technique of sea floor geodetic observations using a GPS/acoustic combination enables us to measure sea-floor movement directly, and the movement of the sea floor during the mainshock reached 24 m in the off-Miyagi region (Sato et al., 2011).
"Blood on the Floor," nine movements lasting about an hour, proved appropriate in ways Mr. Steel might not have anticipated.
