QuakeLogic was founded with the mission of providing intelligent disaster management solutions through modern software technology to prevent and reduce human and economic losses seen during and after disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, etc.
For instance after earthquakes, automated assessments with rapid notifications are delivered to the user with the level of intensity shaking to which the structure experienced and whether its integrity was compromised.
We actively participate in research and development of new techniques in structural health monitoring and earthquake engineering fields. This participation has included publication of numerous journal articles, attendance at major conferences, development of widely used algorithms and models, and leadership in conferences.
We started our company to have the greatest flexibility to collaborate and communicate with our clients. This allows us to tailor our real-time earthquake monitoring services and deliverables for the individual needs of each project. We enrich our practice by collaborating with universities.
