• Develop macroscopic domain numerical simulation models for short time scale dynamic processes including dynamic rupture, wave propagation and strong ground motion.

• Definition of standard models in different tectonic settings..

Functions

Construction of macroscopic domain simulation models for short time scale processes and wave propagation. Definition of standards including "standard earth models" in different tectonic settings, code standards, data repositories, data formats, and attenuation functions.
