The Virtual Wave Research Lab is an applet created to give users the
ability to explore a virtual recreation of the Hinsdale Wave Research
Lab at Oregon State University. The VWRL was
created through funding from the National Science Foundation as part of
the George E. Brown Network for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (NEES)
project.
