Earthquake Energy Revealed: MIT Lab Quakes Show Where Most Power Goes
MIT researchers have built miniature "lab quakes" to track every joule released during an earthquake. Their experiments prove that shaking is just the tip of the energy iceberg, while heat and rock breakup gobble most of the power. Past fault activity leaves a geological memory that reshapes how energy is split. The findings could sharpen hazard forecasts and help engineers design smarter safety measures.
