Effects of random 3D upper crustal heterogeneity on long-period (≥ 1 s) ground-motion simulations

Effects of random 3D upper crustal heterogeneity on long-period (≥ 1 s) ground-motion simulations

Abstract The effects of the short-wavelength heterogeneity of the crustal structure on predicted ground motion at periods of 1 s and longer were investigated by conducting three-dimensional finite-difference simulations using a detailed realistic velocity model of the Kanto region of Japan. The shor...
