This research is to utilize the Connection Machine, a massively parallel computer supporting 32,768 linked but otherwise independent CPU's, to compute the transmission of a guided wave in a low-velocity fault zone. Such waves have been observed at Parkfield, California, but standard computational codes are not adequate to model the phenomena. The results can be applied to mapping faults such as the San Andreas in greater detail than has been possible to date. This research is a component of the National Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program.

这项研究是利用Connection Machine，一台支持32,768个链接但其他方面独立的CPU的大规模并行计算机，计算低速断层带中导波的传输。在加利福尼亚州的帕克菲尔德观察到了这样的波，但标准的计算代码不足以对这种现象进行建模。这些结果可以应用于绘制圣安德烈亚斯等断层的地图，比迄今可能的更详细。这项研究是国家减少地震灾害计划的一部分。
