INCITE

Through the DOE Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) Program, SCEC scientists use the DOE Oak Ridge and Argonne Leadership Computing Facilities to develop petascale seismic hazard simulations that can provide ground motion forecasts for the largest earthquakes at frequencies higher than 1 Hz.

HPCC Computing Resources

Through INCITE allocations, SCEC researchers perform seismic hazard computational research making extensive use of two DOE Leadership class computer facilities:

• Intrepid (IBM Blue Gene/P)
• Jaguar (Cray XT5)

SCEC INCITE 2011

• Project Name:Deterministic Simulations of Large Regional Earthquakes at Frequencies Up to 4 Hz
• PI and Co-PI(s):
  • Thomas H. Jordan (PI)
  • Yifeng Cui (Co-PI)
  • Kim Olsen (Co-PI)
  • Jacobo Bielak (Co-PI)
  • Po Chen (Co-PI)

SCEC was awarded a 2011 INCITE Allocation that includes compute time on ALCF Intrepid and we have begun work on our 2011 research plan.
