The primary objective of this platform is to provide rigorous technical insight into the analytical foundations of earthquake hazard formulation. Designed for researchers and practitioners, this site bypasses introductory overviews to focus directly on complex numerical models, hazard formulation, and interactive data visualization.
Rather than processing large-scale, generalized datasets, this environment is optimized for focused, iterative parameter testing.
Core Analytical Capabilities
- Interactive Information on Global Earthquake Dsitribution:
- Interactive Information on Tectonic Plates Distribution and Relative Motions:
- Building Seismicity Models for Faults and Subduction Zones:
- Earthquake Hazard Analysis:
- Earthquake Ground Motion (GM) Simulation and Response Spectral Analysis:
- USGS Seismicity Model Interactive GM Analysis:
- User-Defined Earthquake GM Analaysis:
- Interactive Fault Configuration: Define and manipulate specific fault segments to run isolated analyses. The tools allow you to intuitively adjust geometries and parameters to observe localized effects.
- Targeted Ground Motion (GM) Testing: Run specific Ground Motion models on single, user-defined faults. The interface is built to support iterative testing, allowing you to easily revisit the application and modify fault segments over time to compare different GM scenarios.
- Analytical Formulations: Dive into the mathematical and physical foundations of hazard modeling. The site bridges the gap between theoretical physics—such as wave propagation mechanics and empirical scaling assumptions—and practical, interactive application.
