Unified Structural Representation
SCEC's system science approach to earthquake studies has developed the concept of a Unified Structural Representation of the state of the earth in California. Elements in the USR should be consistent across areas. Elements might include a community fault model (CFM), a community velocity model, and possibly others including community stress model, a community rheology model and a community Block Model (CBM). Development and application of these models is performed by the community modeling environment (CME).
