See how UC San Diego helps advance and secure a green-energy future and go behind the scenes of yet another first-of-it's-kind structural test at UC San Diego’s Englekirk Structural Engineering Research Center - the only facility in the world where actual full-scale towers can be tested. Using these unique test capacities wind turbine towers were subjected to dramatic seismic forces – producing encouraging data about reliability and structural safety for the future of wind energy. Series: "Earthquake and Seismology Programs" [Science] [Show ID: 18117]
