* Simulation Volumes
+
Most regional scale deterministic earthquake simulation verification and validation exercises have been done at frequencies 1Hz or lower [1] [2]. With the introduction of high performance CPU and CPU-GPU wave propagation codes, there has been significant recent progress running simulations up to 4Hz.  As we increase the capabilities of our deterministic earthquake simulation codes, we need to re-evaluate the codes performance at these higher frequencies that are now possible. The goal of this activity is to evaluate the performance of multiple wave propagation codes that are capable of simulation regional scale earthquakes at frequencies 4Hz+.

High frequency simulations introduce several code modifications intended to more accurately model the physics of high frequency earthquake wave propagation simulations. Modification to existing wave propagation codes to support 1Hz+ simulations include:
−
* Number and location of sites used for ground motion comparison
+
* Source descriptions with energy above 1Hz
−
* Proposed Station List to save results
+
* Small scale heterogeneities in the 3D velocity models
−
* La Habra Point Source parameters

* Currently available code capabilities in GPU codes
+
* Near fault plastic yielding
−
** small scale heterogeneities
+
* Large displacement plastic yielding
−
** FDQ
+
 
−
** Plasticity
+
To help isolate the impact of each of these changes, we propose to start with simple (possibly unrealistic) high frequency (4Hz) ground motion simulations and compare the simulation results produced by different methods. Then we will introduce these modifications one at a time, as a way if isolating the impact of each change individually.

We will use a point source, and a source time function for that point source produced by Zheqiang Shi (SDSU). This source time function has frequencies above 4Hz, scaled to Mw5.1 La Habra. The source is plotted and defined in the following files. These show the source trimmed, low-pass filtered (fc=5Hz, Butterworth, 2 forward passes, 4 poles), 4300 points, dt=0.001s (and plot of what is should look like).

This page collects information about a proposed high frequency verification and validation exercise. Planning started in Dec 2014.

Goal

Most regional scale deterministic earthquake simulation verification and validation exercises have been done at frequencies 1Hz or lower [1] [2]. With the introduction of high performance CPU and CPU-GPU wave propagation codes, there has been significant recent progress running simulations up to 4Hz. As we increase the capabilities of our deterministic earthquake simulation codes, we need to re-evaluate the codes performance at these higher frequencies that are now possible. The goal of this activity is to evaluate the performance of multiple wave propagation codes that are capable of simulation regional scale earthquakes at frequencies 4Hz+.

Approach

High frequency simulations introduce several code modifications intended to more accurately model the physics of high frequency earthquake wave propagation simulations. Modification to existing wave propagation codes to support 1Hz+ simulations include:

  • Source descriptions with energy above 1Hz
  • Small scale heterogeneities in the 3D velocity models
  • Frequency dependent attenuation
  • Near fault plastic yielding
  • Large displacement plastic yielding

To help isolate the impact of each of these changes, we propose to start with simple (possibly unrealistic) high frequency (4Hz) ground motion simulations and compare the simulation results produced by different methods. Then we will introduce these modifications one at a time, as a way if isolating the impact of each change individually.

Problem Statement

We have defined common input parameters for use by AWP-ODC, RWG, and Hercules. The problem statements includes the following parameters:

  1. Simulation Region
  2. Source Description
  3. Station List
  4. Velocity Model
  5. Simulation Duration
  6. Simulated Frequency Range
  7. Sample per Wavelength

Simulation Region

The simulation region four corners are given in the table below:

Volume size:

  • 180,000 m x 135,000 m x 61,875 m = 1.503e15 m3

Source Description

We will use a point source, and a source time function for that point source produced by Zheqiang Shi (SDSU). This source time function has frequencies above 4Hz, scaled to Mw5.1 La Habra. The source is plotted and defined in the following files. These show the source trimmed, low-pass filtered (fc=5Hz, Butterworth, 2 forward passes, 4 poles), 4300 points, dt=0.001s (and plot of what is should look like).

1D Velocity Model Definition

The first velocity model will be modeled on a 1D model of the Los Angeles Basin used in on the Broadband Platform project. The model was smoothed to eliminate sharp contrasts between layers.

  • Min Vs: 500m/s
  • Mesh file size: 2,259,900,000,000 => 2.1TB

Station List

We developed a list of ground motion observations for the La Habra earthquake. A description of the methods used to create this merged site list are provided at Selection of La Habra Ground Motion Observations.

This site list is based on use of publicly posted data sets for the La Habra event. There should be on-scale accelerometer ground motion data at all of these sites for the La Habra mainshock. This list combine all channels available from SMO and SCECDC for the La Habra Event using only acceleration instruments within the simulation region:

We expect all these recordings to be [ HN ] channel data, In SEED terminology,

  • [ H ] High Broad Band >= 80 to <= 250 Sample Rate (Hz) Corner Period: >= 10 sec
  • [ N ] Accelerometer (historically some channels from accelerometers have used instrumentation codes of L and G. The use of N is the FDSN convention as defined in August 2000)


We have not yet plotted all data to visually confirm all records are above noise, and on-scale. We have not yet confirm all records are three component records.
