Realistic Modeling of 3-D Seismic Wave Propagation Using Boundary Element Methods

小行星9526617 这项研究是与墨西哥城和格勒诺布尔的地震学家和地震工程师合作的成果，旨在扩展现有的多层结构中三维地震波传播建模方法。 这项工作是必要的，以了解和解释在墨西哥城，塔尔扎纳，加州苗圃和其他重要的网站地震地面运动的高水平放大和长时间。 变化的边界元法沿着与代码，广泛使用并行处理器将被开发。 这项研究是国家地震减灾计划的一部分。 *** ??

9526617 Barker This research is a collaborative effort with seismologists and earthquake engineers in Mexico City and Grenoble to extend existing methods for modeling 3-D seismic wave propagation in multi-layered structures. The work is necessary in order to understand and explain the high levels of amplification and long durations of earthquake ground motion in Mexico City, the Tarzana, California nursery and other important sites. Variations of the Boundary Element Method along with codes that extensive use of parallel processors will be developed. This research is a aomponent of the National Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program. *** ??
