Overview
The Fling study is a set of broadband platform simulations defined by NGA researchers and run by the SCEC Broadband platform group as part of a California seismic hazard evaluation project. As part of this study, a model will be developed to describe the magnitude and distance dependence of fling effects on empirical GPMEs.
Fling represents the manifestation of the permanent tectonic displacement on the ground motions. In engineering applications, it is typically expressed as a long-period, one-sided pulse in velocity and it can have a significant effect on the ground motion close to the fault rupture. It can be parameterized in terms of the pulse amplitude, period, and arrival time, which are expected to be strongly correlated to both magnitude and distance.
While there has been a dramatic increase in the number of observations and recordings of the permanent displacements at short distances in the last 10 years, there are still not enough recordings to constrain the magnitude and distance dependence of the fling effects. To help constrain the fling effects using physics-based models, a large set of finite-fault simulations has been submitted to SCEC that supplement the empirical data for fling effects and provide insights into the relative size of the fling effects and the vibratory ground motions.
The simulations submitted to SCEC include both strike-slip and reverse faults, with dips ranging from 45 to 90 and magnitudes from 6-8.2. Each scenario includes 30 random realizations of the hypocentral location and the slip distribution and is recorded by about 100-200 stations per realization, at distances of 1.0-100 km from the fault.
