[O06-P29] Having Variable Frictional Force, Developing a Spring Block Model for Earthquake

Spring Block Model,analog model,earthquake

Methods to reproduce earthquakes using a Spring Block Model have existed for some time, such as "An analog two-dimensional Spring Block Model for classroom" 1) , but there is a problem that the frictional force cannot be changed. Therefore, we constructed a Spring Block Model using a craft motor and a fishing weight. By using the experimental method, we succeeded in making a spring block with variable friction force.
