Tectonix Engine
Bangladesh Earthquake Simulation Platform
Simulate earthquakes on real tectonic structures in Bangladesh. Understand seismic risks, analyze intensity distributions, and explore disaster preparedness scenarios with scientifically accurate ground motion predictions.
Backend Information
Our simulation backend runs on a cloud free tier, so it may sleep when inactive. If loading takes a bit longer, please give it around 40-50 seconds to wake up. Thank you for your patience!

Initializing fault lines and districts...
Realistic Mode
Uses natural magnitude based on fault stress profile, length, and slip rate for authentic scenarios
Hypothetical Mode
Manually choose any magnitude up to the fault's maximum to explore various "what-if" scenarios
Platform Capabilities
6 Major Faults
3 GMPE Models
64 Districts
Interactive Maps
