A set of animations derived from an advanced new earthquake simulation software, called EQSIM, showing both seismic wave propagation through the ground (left) and corresponding evolution of building damage (right). This simulation is of a magnitude 7.0 earthquake from a rupture on the northern Hayward fault. Another simulation shows an earthquake of the same magnitude originating from a rupture on the southern part of the Hayward fault.
