The investigation involves the creation of stronger                             gravitational fields to act on laboratory models using a                        modulated magnetic field.  The goal is to produce a model that                  behaves like the actual structure, and to offer the convenience                 of a non-revolving experimental setup.  The system is to expand                 the ability to excite models with calibrated dynamic signals such               as impact, harmonic excitation and complex earthquake motions.                  Verification of small model tests is accomplished by conducting                 an experiment on an existing full-scale structure or by                         analytical predictions.                                                                                                                                         This project is one supported under the Creativity Awards                       for Undergraduate Engineering Students.
