Broadband Hanging Wall Simulation
From SCECpedia
This Wiki page describes the simulations that will be performed on the Broadband Platform to investigate footwall / hanging wall and directivity effects for NGA-W2. This simulation is expected to generate 205,776 3-component seismograms.
Hanging Wall Specifications
Robert Graves has written a specification for a set of footwall and hanging wall simulation in this document.
