More accurate earth quake simulation
Clipped to the Drawing Board by Ryan  
A new kind of simulator at New York’s State University at Buffalo replicates the motion earthquakes induce inside buildings, where distance from the ground and building height can dramatically magnify ground movement in complex motions that differ from floor to floor.

Now they are able to go more in depth than the traditional shake tables and getting more accurate representations of how earthquakes can affect higher buildings.
