- Ground motion simulation: Includes the development of a computational pathway for handling ground motion simulation calculations, the necessary input model information, post-processing of results and visualisation.
- Ground motion simulation workflow: Discusses developments the QuakeCoRE ground motion simulation workflow for performing hybrid broadband ground motion simulations of NZ earthquake ruptures using multiple wave propagation tools and NeSI HPC resources
- SeisFinder: Discusses the SeisFinder interface, which allows access to ground motion simulation information for use in engineering applications
- Seismic response modelling of infrastructure: Includes both detailed modelling of individual infrastructure components (e.g. individual structural and geotechnical systems), as well as spatially-distributed infrastructure systems.
- OpenSees Development: The Open System for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (OpenSees) is the principal collaborative software for detailed modelling of individual infrastructure used by QuakeCoRE. You can find specific initiatives by clicking on the link above.
- Further information can be found in the 2016 QuakeCoRE Annual Meeting Poster for this topic.
- Seismic loss assessment: Includes both detailed 'structure-specific', as well as 'regional' loss assessment.
