Calculate how many simulation jobs are needed for each fault given a model based on rupture magnitude (such as the one below):



Note that the median rupture magnitude used in this process is based on Leonard 2010 magnitude scaling relationship which differs from the values prescribed in Stirling et al 2012 national hazard model. This file contains the fault name, median rupture magnitude based on Leonard 2010, length, width, and rake of all the finite faults in the national hazard model: Fault_LeonardMag_Length_Width_Rake.txt


A simple code as the one written in matlab (run_C18p6_NumSim.m) can be used to determine the number of simulations for the considered faults. This code takes three inputs:

1- A model (as shown in the above figure)

2- A file containing the fault name, median rupture magnitude based on Leonard 2010, length, width, and rake of all the finite faults in the national hazard model: Fault_LeonardMag_Length_Width_Rake.txt

3- A file containing the list of faults that are considered in for a a given Cybershake run (such as CS_list_v18p6.txt ) which is obtained in Step one Step 1: Determine the list of faults considered

to do: create a paython version of this code and integrate it  into the workflow.
